At the bottom of the neck and the top of the style, the choker is the 2016 necklace. How to wear this trendy jewel that takes us by throat? Practical guide.
True to its cyclic pace, fashion sees its obsessions of the past be reborn. And in 2016, the 90s come back to us. Neo Sportswear trash, disturbing normal aesthetic as at Vetements, but also tender Madeleines de Proust are on the program. Adopted unanimously by the it-girls of the moment, it is The necklace ras of neck which is the standard carrier of this revival. Rihanna, Bella and Gigi Hadid, the Kardashian, he hangs himself at all necks. Renowned “Choker” (English scarf) To guarantee an all -in -style return, it most often constitutes a simple ribbon, sufficient to dress all the silhouette of its presence. Conjugated with fun tattoo necklace version as with chic velvet mode, it is an accessory full of paradoxes. Indeed, placed in the strategic place of the neck, he underlines the head of head in a very sensual way but can also sometimes tamp. Double cutting edge but furiously fashion, we follow the instructions for use to adopt the IT-Colle of the moment.
Morphology alert
As its name suggests, the neck is worn by the throat, which can have a double effect. On the long necks, the cord accentuates the dimension, a prunee effect guaranteed. On the contrary, Station out for the little necks. To avoid seeming to have missed a step between shoulders and ears, you choose your choker. To banish: wide and too dark ribbons. To be added: Tatoo version, lace or all light colors. Another tip to get around the “head in the shoulders” effect, the hairstyle. If you are not sure to assume to have a knotted throat, opt for a short cut or attached hair, which will dissipate the illusion of a ratatated silhouette.
Dress code
Like any trend from the past, the dress code is important to adopt the choker in the right way. Even if nothing prevents you from bringing out your crop top with thin straps and your Marteens Doc, betting on a more contemporary job will make you easier and will prevent those around you violent Falshbacks in the 90’s. Only one imperative: Associate it with low -cut outfits, or with a released throat, to avoid the impression of confinement. We love him, for example, allied at the top with the Bardot neckline, with whom he forms a romantic and very chic couple. If you prefer to stay chaste, accompany your outfit with a strict jacket for a very Christian Dior rendering. With a large shirt tilted backwards Balenciaga, in a very fine cord integrated with a nightie dress like Nina Ricci, in her big evening version jewelry with a bustier dress Oscar de la Renta, so many creators interpreted it, it is not the inspiration that is missing.
Make a success
Bold and sensual, the choker is not an innocent jewel. Depending on its form, it refers to very varied symbolism, which it is a question of handling so as not to return contrary messages. Two approaches are distinguished: the fatal and sexy dog necklace and the regressive and juvenile neck. One is a sober, often black cord and intervenes in sophisticated outfits like a cherry on the look. It can be connoted SM as Gothic, and is therefore to be carried with subtlety. The other, regressive, decorated with multicolored or plastic pearls like the famous tatoo necklace, evokes the Spice Girl years and their delightful pop. If you were already too old to wear it at that time, pass your turn. Luckily, between these two extremes slip a multitude of models, bohemian with embroidery, precious with rhinestones, romantic with lace … Given the complexity of the room, you can even make yours with ease.
