AFI Awards 2014

Last night in Hollywood was no different from previous ones. Everything as always: spotlights, red carpet, gold statuettes ... But seriously, yesterday in Los Angeles hosted the annual ceremony of the AFI Awards 2014, established the American Film Institute. This award though is another in an endless list of Hollywood's awards, but has its own distinctive features. Firstly, there is from AFI nominations - members of the institute just selected 10 movies and 10 TV shows of the year, worthy, in their opinion, the awards. And, secondly, figurines AFI traditionally not get the best directors, producers and actors, and the whole crew of the film or television project. So, last night in Beverly Hills hosted a real holiday, which has become the main components of friendship, mutual assistance and effective cooperation. Is not that wonderful?





This time I decided to change the format a little bit about the post along with the red carpet and to present it in the form of fashion tips to add a description of the fashion trends. Hopefully, it will be interesting!

Neon + leopard

We are accustomed to the fact that the bright neon colors rarely withstand the neighborhood with other active elements and are often used in images solos - as the main color spot. And I thought so, but exactly to the moment she saw Octavia Spencer in a dress with neon green accents, which was supplemented with leopard shoes and clutch. Active animal pattern goes well with rich colors and even looked at the background of a such a "neutral supplement", which made the whole image began to play an entirely new way. I'll bet that in most cases such a dress would be combined with an unremarkable black or beige accessories and hardly remembered us.





Boring Total Onion

Nothing is easier than to create a total over-the bow - put on the things of the same color and finish. And there it was! Total Onion (or an image in a single color) is often amenable to combining more difficult than any other. The main danger that you may encounter when creating an image of this - is that dress will look dull. In this case you should use one of the few proven ways: basic shade dilute other bright accent (for example, ornaments with colored stones), choose the original silhouette dress with an unusual design or decor, or use tissues with different texture. This latter method is used in a beige dress yesterday Sandra Bullock. Her Burberry Prorsum ensemble consisted of a smooth jumper with a faint metallic thread, a pencil skirt with a large lace embroidery and suede sandals. Pretty simple, but very dull.





Accessories Rescue

Although the little black dress is a self-contained element of the wardrobe, and sometimes it does not interfere with interesting details that can transform the image. In the case of Amy Adams, this role was assumed by a dark purple patent leather strap and silver shoes in a futuristic style. With such a frame of MPP Roksanda Ilincic looked much more effective and in line with the festive atmosphere of the event.





Delicate color-blocking

Color-blocking is not losing its fashionable items for the third year, but in contrast to the bright combinations of topical summer, winter assumes a more gentle fashion color combinations. A good example of this trend is the image of Christina Hendricks in the ensemble of the democratic British brand Boden, where pale blue cashmere cardigan is adjacent to the skirt krandash delicate shades of sea foam. In combination with accessories in shades of beige and red outfit looks completeness and harmony.





White T-shirt is appropriate anytime, anywhere

And what would we do without the white T-shirt? This basic article of clothing is appropriate to look in all the spheres of life - at home, in the office, at a cocktail party and even at a gala dinner in the evening (evening dresses with white futbolochnym riding has long appeared on the red carpet). That's Elisabeth Moss appeared on yesterday's event in a simple white T-shirt and classic skirt of gray-green jacquard, I agree with this statement.





Halter top at all times

Short top has become a major fashion trend of the past season, but even with the arrival of winter (even if it happens in Los Angeles) his popularity fell. For example, Lizzy Caplan has welcomed yesterday's party in black shortened top with long sleeves, midi-skirt with a high waist and flirty red shoes with laces. The image turned cautious, but at the same time sexy, playful and ostromodnye, and all thanks to a piece of open body on the abdomen.





Sport chic - the main trend of the coming season

Thanks to the efforts of fashion designers clothes in sports style will regain its popularity in the future fashion season. This trend has become a key in the fresh spring collection of Victoria Beckham, much of which was inspired by the traditional shape. One of the dresses from the collection presented at yesterday's red carpet star of "Game of Thrones' Emilia Clarke. Actress was blue mini dress pleated c "petticoat", the creation of which was inspired by Victoria Clothes for tennis.





Sometimes it's better to listen to the advice of designers ...

... And fully copy the image from the podium. In most cases, designers offer their collections and ready-made bows perfectly combined fashion, and sometimes easier to fully replicate their ideas than coming up with something new and fail. Something similar happened last night, and Kate Mara, who complained to the ceremony dressed as Michael Kors. The actress tried on a charming mini dress with floral prints and exaggerated shoulder line, adding to his large brown belt in the retro style and the shuttles beige sharp-nosed. Recent and spoiled the impression from the entire image does not fit into the overall picture. I would have been very happy if Kate listened to the authoritative opinion of Michael Kors and wearing shoes instead of the classic platform sandals or, in extreme cases, by combining the color of the shoes with the color of the belt.

Create your own style

Lupita Nyong'o appeared in Hollywood recently (the sensational film "12 Years a Slave" is the first in her filmography), and it has tipped the title of style icon. On the one hand, the honor of being the fashion icon worthy of the years, but, on the other hand, over the past kinosezon Lupita showed us so much flawless, interesting, and most importantly suitable to her fashion a way that left no doubt that this girl with a sense of style full order. A native of Mexico knows the advantages and disadvantages of the figure and tries to correct them, chooses unconventional styles and fashion is not afraid to experiment and unusual color combinations. A bright dress with a floral print from Carolina Herrera, supplemented with blue shoes and coral lipstick, another proof.
