Greek tunic
In summer, everyone wants to dress so that it is not very hot. It is always comfortable to be in loose clothes, this is the Greek tunic. After all, she was born in hot countries, in those days when comfort was above beauty.
Greek style and its features
In ancient Greece, people simply covered the body with large pieces of cloth, draping them with beautiful coattails. Subsequently, decor began to appear, mainly in the form of embroideries and various belts.
In its modern form, the Greek tunic is usually made of thin, airy fabric, which should be large enough to form folds. After all, this is the main feature of the classic Greek tunic. The cut is always loose, and a lap is made over the belt, which advantageously hides figure flaws.
Ancient Greek and Greek motifs
Despite a certain appearance, the motives are quite diverse. The most classic tunic in white, embellished with gold patterns. The neckline is usually V-shaped, but there may be other options, it depends on the style and framing of the bodice. Sleeves can be either short or long. The drawstring waist will always be a sign of the Greek style. Despite this, ordinary thin belts are perfectly acceptable.
Very often, Greek motifs are used in wedding dresses. The main features in this case will be a high waist, floor length, freely flowing light flowing fabric. A very popular model with one open shoulder.
Who will suit
Thanks to their free style, Greek tunics suit almost everyone. Everything suits girls with perfect shapes, and there will be no exception. On excessively thin ones, it will also look great, as it will add extra volume. And for ladies with magnificent forms, this is just a godsend. Behind the endless folds, you can hide any flaw, while, thanks to the straight cut, stretch the figure, making it visually slimmer. No wonder the tunic is so popular among overweight women.
Fashion trends
Modern designers have already come up with many interesting and popular tunic styles, somewhat moving away from the classic canons. But the most important feature remains unchanged - it is a very free cut. A tunic can be decorated with a strap tied strictly at the waist or under the chest, but you can do without it.
The color palette is no longer limited to classic white, now you can see almost all colors on the catwalks.
A very popular model that came back to us from the 40s, a tunic with batwing sleeves. It does not restrict movement and looks very stylish. Very loved by those who sew on their own. It is a one piece product. The armhole starts at the waist. The sleeve is very wide and gradually becomes narrow, only towards the wrist.
What to wear?
A long tunic, like a dress tunic, can be worn on its own, not forgetting that the length must be appropriate in order to decorate and not spoil the figure.
The Greek tunic is a very capricious thing in terms of combining it with other things in the wardrobe. It should never be combined with a skirt, it will be ugly. Classic and wide trousers will also not work. A short tunic can be worn with skinny jeans or trousers.Pants should match the fabric and style. In addition, jewelry will help to decorate such an image. For example, a large necklace and bracelet.
If the tunic is closer to the evening style, jeans will already be out of place.
Long tunics go well with leggings and leggings. If the model does not have its own belt, you can wear a suitable belt. We must not forget about the color scheme. Colors should always match beautifully.
