Hipsters are a youth subculture of the 50-60s of the USSR, which stands out among the monochromatic mass with bright outfits, hairstyles and an addiction to American music. A photo session in the image of a dandy is remembered for its unusual and positive photographs. To turn photography into a fun process, you need to turn on your imagination and acquire the appropriate attributes.
Choosing a location for photography
First you need to decide where the photo session will take place. It can be a studio, a house or a street, the main thing is that the background conveys the atmosphere of antiquity.
Textured walls made of massive brick and stone, columns and old buildings look spectacular. When planning outdoor photography, it is recommended to purchase props: a checkered blanket, a rocking chair, a bright parasol, etc.
Ask your friends: maybe someone inherited from their grandmothers gramophones, records, old suitcases, televisions, etc. You can rent a retro car. Since the main style music was jazz, the saxophone will be the undoubted favorite among the attributes.
Avoid classic posing (looking straight into the camera, frozen pose). The main ideas of a photo shoot in the image of a dandy are emotions and movement. For example, you can capture a boogie-woogie dance or act out a whole scene like in an old movie. For completeness, the finished photographs can be aged in a special program.
Create an image
For a man's look, pipe trousers, bell-bottoms and multi-colored plaid suits are suitable. Shabby wide jeans will go well with a bright jacket with patches on the elbows. Use colorful ties as a bright accessory: a bow tie with large peas or a narrow long tie of animal color. Shirts should have a wide V-neck that exposes the neck and upper sternum.
The men's shoes of the dandies had a sharp toe and were made of leather that imitated the skin of a crocodile. Chunky dark beige low shoes with white rubber soles will also fall into the look.
Particular attention should be paid to the hairstyle. A distinctive feature of the dudes was a whipped "cook" on the head - hair combed high in front. Take a look at pictures of Elvis Presley and create a similar hairstyle with the styling gel. If your hair is not long enough or you don't want to build something, you can simply beat the strands with your fingers to give them a perky and slightly careless look.
Fashion girls are advised to purchase dresses strictly according to the figure. The main goal is to accentuate the waist and chest. The bodice of the dress should be tight-fitting, and the bottom should be flowing and free. Bright bell skirts look great in combination with sleeveless chiffon blouses, sundresses with one strap through the neck and fluffy skirts. Clothes should be stylish and bright. The highlight is the polka dot print and bright doll colors - pink, blue, etc.
Avoid stiletto heels. Fashionable women's shoes for dandies - shoes or sandals with massive heels no more than 8 cm high. To complete the look, add bright accessories in the form of large beads and bracelets. Sunglasses in half-face with leopard rims will give a special chic.
The choice of hairstyles for girls is wide, the main thing is that there is volume. Owners of fluffy hair can be combed flirty "Babette", like Audrey Hepburn in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Alternatively, a Greek crown or a tight ponytail will do. For girls with medium and short hair, it is recommended to give the strands puffiness and decorate their hair with a bright headband.
