To the eyes of the world, European women are an icon of style and beauty. What makes European women so enchanting, is it the accessibility to the moguls of fashion itself or it is more than just clothes-deep?
Being influenced by the big names of fashion one could say it comes easy for European women to dress well, however globalization has busted this myth, fashion is accessible everywhere in the globe, tendencies spread over the internet in matter of seconds and still European women are considered to be more stylish, classy, poised and elegant.
What is it then? It boils down to the essence of European fashion: always classy, always elegant, lines that flatter the figure, simple meaning always more, colours and patterns that evolve with time but captures that classic essence of its creators. We relate European fashion not only with high couture, but also to the appreciation of a marvelous craft, the craft that only the best tailors actually understand, that of dressing women with perfectly-fitted garments.
European women do not only symbolize but also live according to these virtues and values, and dress accordingly. It might be just a simple white shirt that fits perfectly, well-tailored trousers, a quality handbag and the look is completed, she is naturally well-dressed with barely-there make-up and ready to take on the world. For dinner, she might wear a classic dress which does not only accentuate her figure but also the colour of her skin and eyes, finish it off with a statement accessories and voil, she's ready to lure the night.
Iconic European women like Princess Diana and Sophia Loren convey with their attitude and personality the most important message of all: clothes were made complement you, but you are not your clothes. These women teach us that you are the element that shines through, you are the style and you are the beauty. They never allowed a trend to overpower their looks or their personality, never wore something just because it looked amazing on someone else, they were the muses of designers. After all that's what fashion should be all about, to make women happy, accentuate their beauty and convey their inner qualities through colours, textures and form. And by keeping this in mind European women dominate style and fashion instead of being dictated by them.
