Multi-layering has been one of the favorite tricks of fashionistas in recent decades. Firstly, it always looks fresh and allows you to fantasize, combining things and thereby emphasizing your own individuality. And secondly, in various situations, it performs important functions – insulation and practicality.


Multi-layering in European fashion appeared thanks to stylists inspired by the designers of the 80s, and already in the 90s street style fans made it a mass phenomenon. Since then, this exciting trend allows you to embody originality and uniqueness of taste in an outfit.


Basic Principles of Multi-Layer Style


Despite the fact that multi-layering obviously deconstructs the proportions of the figure, it does not ignore them at all and can even become an ideal tool for correcting the silhouette.

Thus, with the help of layering of clothes, it is possible to change one or another part of the body:
● increase height by wearing a dress over pants;
● narrow your hips by wearing a straight dress under a shoulder-short jumper or a jacket with an asymmetrical bottom;
● expand the shoulder line using a voluminous top and narrowed bottom;
● transform the proportions by combining a loose dress with slanted armholes worn over a voluminous contrasting blouse.


The main principle here is simple: you take several things and mix them into a cocktail the way you want. At the same time, within the framework of a multi-layered game, it is easy to withstand different styles – from business to romantic. Multi-layering makes the look more dynamic.


Oversize is considered to be one of the integral elements of the modern multi-layered style. In the catalog of the HOLY BASE designer clothing brand you can find original clothes that are easy to combine to emphasize your own uniqueness.
