Social networks have been filled with bows and pastel colors, although this time it has nothing to do with Barbie. On this occasion, it is a fashion trend that has been going strong, known as the “coquette” style. Although one of her great hallmarks has to do with wearing bows in her hair, this aesthetic is much more than that. In general terms, this viral phenomenon could be defined as a hyper-feminine aesthetic with a romantic air with a fairly marked selection of colors and clothing.
One way to get a pretty clear idea of what the “coquette” style consists of would be to imagine the costumes from the film about Marie Antoinette by Sofia Coppola, but adapted to the 21st century. Pastel or warm colors, decorations such as the ubiquitous bows and garments with a series of prints, textures and silhouettes that stand out for their romantic, yet striking appearance. Because the “coquette” style is not exactly discreet.
Those who intend to venture into the “coquette” style should know that there are some garments that will be totally essential to join this new fashion trend that is triumphing on the networks.
Skirts with ruffles. The length does not matter as much as the fact that these look delicate, preferably in pastel colors. Although a white one will be quite basic.
Mini dresses with floral prints. One of the symbols of the “coquette” style. Although in winter they may not seem like a good option, these can be combined with a sweater underneath.
Mary Jane shoes. Another of the fundamental garments for the “coquette” aesthetic, since they will be combined with all types of outfits.
Lace socks. Perfect to show off with the footwear that usually characterizes this style.
Sweaters or blouses in pastel tones. They represent the wardrobe of the “coquette” aesthetic. Although it is advisable to leave aside those that are basic and go for designs that better suit this aesthetic. For example, with puffed or bell sleeves. As well as with accessories that include bows or lace pieces. Sweaters with a Bardot neckline represent another essential.
Ties. Lots of ties, everywhere. But where the “coquette” style is most characterized is in the hair, for example, with a ponytail or a semi-updo.
Small bags, with a special mention to the baguette bag, and in light colors, preferably white.
Flared jeans. Although they are not the most representative element of the “coquette” aesthetic, they can also be used as long as they are complemented with more romantic garments. Like a Bardot neck sweater and matching accessories, all in pastel pink and white tones.
