The mode

As you know, people don't stop talking about topics like 'mode'. There were, there are and there will be different trends depending of the age. For example:

The decade ‘1600 – 1700’:
All modern and independent women wanted to get a haircut that consisted of a form of a ''mushroom'' as Beatles. The artificiality of the 50's had disappeared. In this decade, people didn't use excessive makeup.
The decade ‘1800’:
The style wasn't limited only to the makeup, the hair and the accessories. Women wished to stand out in their works. The body should be natural and trained, so some people went to find cosmetic surgeries. The natural care was frenzy.
The volume and colours were typical things in the 80's.
The most emblematic clothes were the colourful shirts. Now, the makeup was overdone and women wore a lot of bracelets and mini-skirts.



The decade ‘1900’:
Women were overwhelmed and they began to think that they should be tall and seductive.
However, the mode of the 90's was based on the variety. They wanted to express their individuality and they wanted to be express freely. Casual clothes became the mode of the 90's. Also, the piercings and tattoos were common in 1900.



The actual decade (2000 and more):
The new models of the pants were at the height of the hip because women wanted to show their back or their paunch. During the summer, women usually wore short dresses and low-cut shirts. Nowadays, people don't wear the same clothes. It depends of your environment, people around you and more things... Each year there is a special colour that appears always in all the shops: purple, green... some months the pants are patterned... or just are skinny jeans. Each person is different so:

Try to find your own image and feel comfortable with what you're wearing.

Here you have a video where you can observe different clothes that the woman wears for different occasions and how you can combine it.

Also, there are people that want to design and here I have another video that explain you how you can do it:

So, here’s my post and I hope you enjoy with it!!! J

Questions:
1 ~ What kind of clothes do you usually wear? Why?
2 ~ In what decade would you like to have lived, after reading the text? (It can't be the actual decade)
3 ~ After you have watched the first video, what outfit do you like more? Why?
4 ~ You have seen that I have put a phrase to convince people that they have to wear whatever they like, can you say another one?
5 ~ After you have watched the second video, would you like to be a designer? Why/ why not?

  1. Hello everybody!

    Nice post Ana! I can see in this post that the clothes and the accessories are changing all the time! You have published two amazing posts in our blog! Congratulationssss! :D

    1) I usually wear normally clothes ( sport clothes, jeans...) but in special moments like Holy Week I try to wear elegant clothes because it is an important "party" in the year and is common to wear wonderfull clothes. But I use normally clothes in the daily routine because I think that they are comfortable

    2) I think that in decade 1900 because here the clothes weren´t ugly like the others decades. Also, the clothes of this decade are very similar to the clothes of today

    3) Sweater, leggins and dress is my favourite outfit ( for a woman). I think that it is the most comfortable and you can wear it during the week

    4) You haven´t to hear the people that say you that your clothes are awful. Simply, wear whatever you want without any opinions of the rest

    5) Yes, I would. I think that it is a creative job where you can create kinds of clothes that you like and show them to the people that love mode.

    Bye!!:D

    I want to say to Ana that this is a wonderfull post. I have learnt many things about mode while I reading this post.

    1- I usually wear a jeans and in the upper part of my body, I sometimes wear a t-shirt or a pull and trainers, and in special occasions like a birthday, new year or something like that, I wear trousers and a shirt (sometimes with a pull) and shoes.

    2- I would like to visit in the decade "1900", because I like it because those clothes were very basics, and I like go with they because I don't like atrack attention with my clothes.

    3- The outfit that I like more it's when the woman wore white trousers, a black jacket, a t-shirt with neckline and a open white shirt.

    4- You mustn't take attention to the people opinion, wear whatever you like!!

    5- No, because I don't like so much that job although I watched the video.. ja, ja, ja..

  5. Hi! A very good job, Ana. It's a very interesting post, I've learnt a lot obout clothes of all times.

    1- I usually wear jeans, colourfoul T-shirts with jean- jackets or cadirgans. I don't usuallly wear sport clothes, but sometimes.

    2- Probably, I would like in 90s, because clothes were similar to today's clothes and they weren't as extrange as before that.

    3- in y opinion, the first look was the most interesting. It looks elegant, but it is very confortable with that tipe of boots and the scarf.

    4- Your look have to reflect how are you, not how is the rest of the world.

    5- I think this is an interesting job, but I don't like it so much. Mode is really tiring.

    Bye!

  6. Hi Ana! Hi class!

    This has been a wonderful post, because we have gone through the history of the mode in only a few minutes. Also you've added great videos that show us the life of people that work in this type of work and how can we wear in special ocassions. So, good job.

    1| I usually wear a jeans and a T-Shirt in the school, and when I'm out I wear more beautiful Shirts and T-Shirts. I wear sports clothes only in summer, when it's very hot, but if I can go well-dressed then I go.

    2| I would like to live in the sixties, because I think that those clothes are so funny and over all, I like their glasses. I have to admit that I won't wear these clothes today, althought I will use them as a fancy-dress.

    3| The clothes that I like the most are the second ones (shirt and leggins). These are plain clothes, but they are really fantastic.

    4| Pride feels no cold. It's a saying which has translation in Spanish. If we translate literally from Spanish it means "If I walk keeping warm, I don't mind if they mock of me".

    5| I don't like this job, I don't find it interesting. I think that in mode and fashion, the important thing is to have fame, not to make the most beautiful clothes, and I don't like it. I prefere other jobs more fair.

    Good post Ana!

    Bye class! Bye Ana!
