Tips On T-Shirt Fashion

Posted on March 18, 2018 by blogger

Along with jeans, t-shirts are perhaps the worlds most ubiquitous fashion item not bad for a garment that started out life as underwear. Since World War Two, t-shirts have gone from strength to strength, and today its rare to meet someone who doesnt have a t-shirt in their wardrobe.

But since theyre so common, its easy to become bored of wearing t-shirts quickly. Looking for new ways to wear a t-shirt? Heres a few tips for men and women on t-shirt fashion.

In Praise Of Plain T-Shirts

For some men and women, theres nothing better than a plain white t-shirt. It might sound boring, but plain white tees are versatile and timeless: theyll never go out of style. But if youre going to wear a plain white t-shirt properly, youll have to make sure the style suits you. For instance, most men plump for a crew neck white t-shirt with short sleeves as the default option. If youre of a more muscular physique, you may suit a t-shirt thats a little tighter in the body, while men with beer bellies should ensure their t-shirts are loose-fitting and several inches longer than waist-length, to provide ample coverage.

In the same vein, women with large chests often look more flattering in a v-neck t-shirt with short sleeves or a scoop neck t-shirt with three-quarter length sleeves. Its all about making sure that your body shape looks in proportion. Notably, some fashion experts suggest avoiding white altogether if you have a large chest as it may overemphasise your assets. It completely depends on your body shape, but if you think white t-shirts dont quite suit you, try a dark colour instead. Black or navy, for instance, may have a slimming effect.

Printed And Graphic Tees

Tie-dye might have been big in the 1960s and 1970s, but since the 1990s printed t-shirts have become the norm. From slogans to characters from Sesame Street, theres no limit to what t-shirts may have printed on them in 2012. If youre replenishing your stock of t-shirts, look for graphic tees that suit your own personality. If youre a music or film buff, look for t-shirts with prints of famous films and album covers. The cover of Joy Divisions album Unknown Pleasures, for instance, is a design thats gained a lot of cache on t-shirts over the past few decades.

If you want to go graphic-lite but need something more arresting that a plain t-shirt, go for a simple but colourful striped design instead. Its also worth considering a t-shirt with a comic slogan, or a simple image like a piece of fruit or a plant as well to add another dimension to your t-shirt collection.

Unique Selling Propositions For Fashion Business

Posted on March 14, 2018 by blogger

Any business plan has the three magic letters USP (unique selling proposition). Prior to any new design creation or a series for the season it is essential to brainstorm on the look of the launch collection. This is a quite a process wherein team leaders vouch for various themes and the decision maker finalises on a project. In a creative field, like fashion designing such management principles are hard to applied. But for survival in this-day competition this is essential.

USP can be a colour, a dress apparel, or simply exquisite dupatta or mens jhuttis. Dramatic projections on the ramp at a fashion shows are not a reality. This is known to all and hence such creations minus the props are regular sales. It is an extensive work by your marketing team to decide on the launch product. Maintaining the brand is essential. In a desire to augment sales the brand positioning should not be compromised.

Once the brand or the fashion designer has won recognition his reputation is unquestioned. Fashion designing is just not about influencing and begetting customers from Page 3. Its an era of awareness and to far-reach your sales. Niche clientele is a fleeting lot and succumbs to anything anew. Hence the need to re-invent.

Originality sells! Brand sells! And also distinguished complete works. The mannequin outside your store is impressive but the reality should match. Sizes should be well stocked when you are confident about your sales. Promptness and pro-active customer attending is necessary for business.

Working on the entire look is important. Employ an expert stylist with draping experience to help customers choose the best. investing in a good advertising agency assures the brand and culminates in sales too.

Planning, research and cultivating new styles goes to maintain a USP. If your USP is cotton and linen then try sequin or pearl embellishments this season. Co-ordinate the same with pointy shoes (a comeback trend) with similar patterning and work. Accessorize well and tie up with leading jewelry brands.

Encourage window shopping, videos on ramp walking and catalogues at reception. Choose a prominent space for hoardings depending on the clientele. Dont load too much information in print or television. Let the creation speak for itself!

Saree blouse designs keep changing with the fashion trends. Several designs and styles are available in sari blouses like halter neck, spaghetti strap blouses, tie-ups, big bow back, single shoulder, low wide neck, puff style and others. Sari color and fabric should be chosen according to height, figure and complexion. The beauty of saris depends on another factor- the blouse designs. That is why women pick their blouses with utmost care. A wrongly chosen blouse can destroy the image of a perfect Indian sari and all your efforts to look attractive can go in vain.

Like sarees, saree blouse designs should be chosen according to the height and figure. When nearly all of the blouse designs look beautiful on women with well-tone curves or slim body, it is not necessary that the same designs look good on plumpy women. Plus size women should not wear just any type of blouse and should be cautious while investing on designer sari blouses. Here, we are going to discuss the different saree blouse designs that suit different type of figures and heights.
Circular or square neck blouses look great on taller women. Shorter women should wear oval or rectangular shape neck blouses. The depth of the neck should be according to your comfort level.

High collar blouses look good on women with thin and long necks, but women with short height and short neck should strictly avoid high color blouses. Ladies who have very long necks should avoid V-shaped and U-shaped neck styles. Halter neck blouses are fashionable and stylish and look great on thin woman. Halter necks with v-halter back design are very famous among Bollywood actresses. Slim or thin women also wear spaghetti strap blouses. They are very bold to carry, but if you find yourself comfortable enough in these blouses, then they can give you a very sensual look. Ladies with thin arms should try blouses with puffy sleeves.

V-neck blouses are the best for the women with short and thick necks. V-necks are the classic saree blouse designs that make you look slimmer. You can also make the back of the blouse V-shaped. Ladies with plus size should wear blouses with long sleeves and avoid sleeveless ones. Long sleeve blouses are traditional and go well with all kinds of sarees. Especially, if you are wearing a saree with heavy embroidery or stonework you should wear a long sleeve simple blouse. The length of the sleeves depends on your choice. If you can blend the V-neck, V-back and long sleeves together, nothing can suit you better than that. Wide neck blouses also give you a slimmer look.

You have many choices in sarees and saree blouse designs. All you have to do is to pick the one that is made for you. Select the one that is trendy, suits you and you are most comfortable in. If you will feel comfortable, you will feel confident. We all are beautiful, but the most gorgeous look is the confident look.
