What to wear to celebrate the Year of the Dragon

The patron of the approaching year, the Green Dragon, loves gloss. Rhinestones and expensive accessories are never enough for him – this fashionista knows no limits. But at the same time, even excesses look harmonious and elegant on him. Let’s learn from the fire-breathing beast immeasurable ambition and chic. “MK” will help you figure out how to dress for the New Year’s table so as not to offend Drakosha and not become a black sheep in your circle.

WHAT TO WEAR FOR A WOMAN

The Dragon has six favorite colors: gold, fiery red, mint green, white, silver and purple. But blue and pink shades will definitely not help to gain the favor of the owner of the coming year. He is completely indifferent to these gentle tones. It is also better to do without beige and chocolate tints.

To live up to the mascot of 2024, you need to stand out and shine. That is, to become the object of everyone’s attention. Suits, dresses, skirts and blouses made from natural fabrics are suitable for women. It is preferable to choose silk or velvet.

Astrologers advise looking “expensive” and “rich” on the last day of the outgoing year. But if suddenly loud colors in clothes scare you, you can get by with flashy jewelry and bright accessories.

Astrologers say that along with the Dragon, new opportunities come into our lives and the time for successful endeavors comes. So the “New Year’s bow” should hint in every possible way that you are ready for change, you are waiting for your chance and hoping that luck is already watching you around the corner.

FASHION IDEAS 2024

Jewelry, jewelry, lace, full skirts, asymmetry, embroidery and patterns in your outfits should emphasize that you love luxury and abundance.

Here, however, danger may await us. After all, it is extremely difficult to find that fine line between shocking and bad taste. So colors and textures in the case of the Dragon must be combined masterfully. If you doubt whether your look will be stylish, consult with your friends, look at fashion catalogs, and be inspired by the design finds of oriental fashion designers.

NEW YEAR’S MAKEUP

Makeup on New Year’s Eve should also match the outfit – bright and sparkling. A highlighter will help you with this, giving your skin a delicate glow. Glitter shadows and red lipstick will also do the job brilliantly. True, if you apply everything at once, it will be too much. To avoid vulgarity in makeup, place the main emphasis on either the eyes or the lips.

MANICURE

According to the eastern calendar, we will spend the next year at the mercy of the woody element, which means the main color of the year will be green. Experts advise taking a closer look at all its shades and combining them with a silver tone, since this palette resembles dragon scales.

The number two color will be red, since every New Year’s Eve is associated with it for the Chinese. Red attracts good luck and wards off evil spirits, so they always use this color in New Year’s home decor.

And finally, gold. The dragon is responsible for abundance and wealth, which means it is the keeper of countless treasures. That’s why a golden manicure will also be extremely relevant on New Year’s Eve.

WHAT TO WEAR FOR A MAN

Avoid synthetics in favor of chiffon and satin, and say “yes” to any shine. But if you don’t want to be a peacock, trust the classics.

On New Year’s Day, it is better to wear all black if you are interested in career growth and financial well-being. Therefore, a strict black suit, a dark shirt or even a turtleneck will be most relevant for the New Year’s feast.

HOW TO DECORATE A HOUSE

The dragon loves glitter very much, so he always likes the New Year’s interior. The symbol of 2024 is delighted with the glass balls shimmering in the rays of light, shaggy tinsel, artificial flowers, sparkling garlands. It is advisable not to limit yourself to a chain of miniature light bulbs, but to come up with something unusual. For example, hang Chinese lanterns from the ceiling, which will remind the tailed guest of his homeland. In addition, you can use LED candles to display the silhouette of a Christmas tree on the wall, and hang a curtain garland on the window. Considering the origin of our hero, bonsai will become an interesting element of the interior.

When choosing a tablecloth, give preference to the ceremonial white color or the Dragon’s favorite red color. They can be complemented by green and gold. Gold is generally allowed to be introduced into decoration and table settings more boldly than usual, without fear of accusations of bad taste. A clawed lover of luxury and ancient treasures will appreciate your step.

It’s just great if the dishes are designed in the style of the East. Unusual interior items in the chinoiserie style will also help you immerse yourself in the atmosphere of China. This could be a ceramic vase with long-legged cranes, a napkin holder with a peacock, which in China serves as the embodiment of pride and beauty, or a wall fan.
