How to wear patterns: animal print, squares, polka dots ...

Small details

If you do not dare with a total look but want to opt for the animal print –one of the ones that we will see the most this season–, integrate it in small doses. Jessica Alba puts a twist on styling with the printed bag.

Total look

One of the easiest options to use prints, dresses or two-piece suits. For day or night, but remember to always combine them with neutral shoes that balance the look.

Mix the basics and you will surprise

It seems that the prince of wales print continues to talk and combine. A style with great force. Raquel from my removable heel combines a print skirt with basic garments such as the blazer in the same tones so as not to fall into vulgar outfits and it remains a very flattering style.

Stripes always

The navy print can do everything: with its powerful stripes it is capable of turning the most indeterminate style into one loaded with attitude. It is flattering and powerful

Bring out your most folkloric side, the polka dots

The craze for polka dots, moles or polka dots of a lifetime this summer lasted. The good thing is that you can wear this trend at any time of the year, you just have to dare to combine like Yasmin Sewell who overlaps a dress with jeans underneath, perfect!

Look for seasonal allies

Do you want to get the most elegant side of the print? Look at how Cintia Lund achieves it with a red sweater that contrasts with the dots on the suit. The look is instantly elevated. From 10!

Vintage

"It's vintage" or, what is the same, it is a unique garment that you cannot anywhere. The muses of the networks have welcomed vintage with open arms. It is a hallmark, one of the things that attracts the most is the fact that they are pieces that only you will have. It offers you the opportunity that only you own that garment, Candela Pelizza wears it in this dress printed with planets and spaceships. It is perfect!

Points here and there

Psychology says that by dint of exposing ourselves to a stimulus over and over again, we end up getting used to it: like that song that doesn't make you fall in love at first, and yet you spend all day humming in your head. Something similar has happened in fashion in the last two years with a garment that is neither new nor unknown, the polka dot dress , reverted over and over again and that Leila Jacue captured during fashion weeks.

All to one

Bet everything on a single card like Gigi Hadid who dares with cleavage, which by making a V shape looks even more stylized, and without wearing anything underneath, do you dare to bring out your sexiest side?

Big time

Candela Pelizza wears a two-piece suit in different shades that makes it look elegant and fun at the same time. Prints are back!

Merge patterns

Laura Bailey gives us the key to merge two patterns that a priori have nothing to do with each other. The trick is to choose patterns that contrast and have different sizes and shades that are within the same range. Of course with accessories that do not overload the look. You are ready to take the streets by storm! Run to Zara because you have many skirts of this style.

Protagonist in small doses

Miranda Kerr does not need anything else to give all the prominence to the star accessory, the animal print moccasins.

Flowers and paintings, of course!

As the temperatures rise we are used to seeing flowers and natural prints that sprout from all the garments and dominate the season, whether micro or maxi. However this time they will ally with asymmetrical necklines, off the shoulders and even with other trendy prints, squares, vertical and horizontal stripes and polka dots.

Uniting trends

Asymmetrical dresses, full color looks, prince of Wales print, polka dots, flowers and more flowers are some of the trends that will hit the streets. Without a doubt the prints come with force, going through different styles of times. Song of style aims at the polka dot to which it adds fishnet stockings and white ankle boots, a great success.

A print, a look

Mix of fabrics, textures, prints … A compendium of garments, a priori, impossible for the same silhouette, but which are coherent thanks to the fact that eccentricity is more fashionable than ever. Combining different or the same prints in the same outfit without being excessive or overdone becomes an art in which Margaret Zhang is already a professional.

Perfect combination

When you combine strong colors that complement each other, patterns and textures with current trends, you can get an outfit with a lot of style like this seen in the street style of Milan. All very energetic, vibrant and striking so as not to go unnoticed. Aim!

We start with the patterns that revolutionize the season but we insist more on those always desired and also hated: the floral print and animal print that we will combine with the rest of the trend prints.

Fortunately, the fashion rules that dictated in which season we should wear certain colors or patterns are increasingly obsolete. Now we have the possibility to dress as we want at any time of the year. In past seasons, green, purple and red took hold of us, so for these months we will see with great force patterns full of flowers, whites, stripes and polka dots and of course, the adored and hated animal print that comes wilder than never.

Prints for all

There are those who think that prints only suit slim girls, nothing is further from reality. The patterns are for everyone and a good way to include them if you are "curvy" is with small or very large patterns, but scattered. This way you will be able to see yourself radiant. You can also opt for small details on the neckline at the neckline.

Asymmetrical dresses, full color looks, wales plaid, romantic shirts and lace lingerie are some of the trends that will hit the streets. Without a doubt the prints come with force, going through different styles of times. From the retro trend of the 60s / 70s to the 80s, where they have a more futuristic vision. This influence is noticeable in metallic fabrics, sequins, minidresses, maxi shoulder pads and asymmetric shoulders.

Flowers…

Flowers are once again leading the trend for prints. Flowers, flowers, many flowers! There is no spring without flowers! They come with satin fabrics, where the oriental touch is clear, gauze, cotton … A beautiful romance of delicate florals, pleats and ruffles immerses us in an innocent and modest figure. As we continue with the trend of handmade prints we find another variant that seems to have come from the artist's sketchbook where we find loose and expressive lines.

As the temperatures rise we are used to seeing flowers and natural prints that sprout from all the garments and dominate the season, whether micro or maxi. However, this time they will ally with asymmetrical necklines, off the shoulders and even with other trendy prints, vichy, wales, vertical and horizontal stripes and polka dots, which also take over the wardrobes of the most fashionistas.

The eternal animal print

It also seems that the fall-spring wardrobe is not complete without animal print garments. This trend that never goes away, returns more wild than ever thanks to many designers who these weeks walk their fabrics in fashion weeks, fleeing from discretion. It is always said about it that it is a complicated pattern and that it is advisable to wear it in small doses: a garment, an accessory, a detail …

The famous animal print managed to unite all of them under the same trend. Although, over time, it ended up being associated with an aesthetic lacking in style and a bit tacky. Now he rises again from his ashes to have another - and to be better - life.

Leopard, zebra, tiger print … No matter the species but the animal print is always present to a greater or lesser extent in our wardrobes. Style icons just show us time and time again that animal print is always a good idea.

And it's not that this trend has returned, it's that it's never gone.

Lunars, polka dots, polka dots …

Polka dots aren't just for summer anymore! This is how we saw it in the last Paris fashion week, where they flooded all kinds of garments. One tip, do not be afraid and mix them with other patterns, you will look very cool.

In mini size or in large dots. All are worth and adapt perfectly to the top fashion of the moment. Polka dot prints are characterized by having a strong retro air, they are usually worn especially in black and white and there are already many haute couture designers who are betting on them again.

Full of personality and their own style, polka dots return (if they ever left) as the essential of the season. Sophisticated and feminine garments, curves and volumes that are enhanced, dotted models in which white takes center stage over its opposite tonality and vice versa, pieces that opt for the most subtle and glamorous version; sweetness and sobriety blend in a perfect balance.

Are you ready to start wearing your prints?
