Hi! Tu parle Prada? Non?! Tiens. We have to change that! Don't worry, you know more than you think. Lets begin with the cours:
- "avant-garde" - in fashion it means something new, that is very innovative and eccentric
- "azure" - the color in the middle of blue and green
- "barette" - a buckle to fixate your hairdo
- "bouclé" - Chanel rocks this fabric:
- "boutique" - a small fashionable shop with unique designs
- "cerise" - a color between red and pink
- "chartreuse" - a yellowish green
- "chantilly" - a precious, handmade lace
- "chignon" - a bun at the lower end of your head
- "cliché" - something new
- "cloche" - a hat or a skirt shaped as bell
- "couture" - the same as in english, is used today for high fashion designs with handmade details
- "crêpe de chine" - a particular fine silk, that has a light creped texture
- "culottes" - the trousers that look like skirts. (ugh had one of those when I was little!)
- "décolletage" - the décolleté
- "eau de toilette" - perfume, that is less intense than a "eau de perfume" (the normal perfume)
- "fuchsia" - a lilac-red color
- "mélange" - a mixture or combination of trends or elements, which have to do with fashion
- "minaudiere" - a clutch
- "motif" - a design or a pattern
- "ombré" - a color proceeding into another one
- "parka" - a jacket with a hood and mostly with fur
- "tulle" - a netted but soft fabric (check out my post on how to wear tulle!)
