Women's Fashion Styles
I believe many of us experience that, when it comes to creating a feminine image, we don't know what clothes to dress them in, either because we have no knowledge of fashion (as is my case) or we don't know what it's called in English, especially when it's something not commonly used or named differently in other countries. It also happens when we're thinking of a specific clothing style, whether Modern, Vintage, etc., but we have no idea how that style dresses. In this first article, I’ll discuss fashion styles and their dressing forms, as a guide to get started since, as you know, fashion changes daily, and new clothing types and thus new names always emerge.
Here's a list of fashion styles with a clothing example that fits each style. Do your research, ask for help from ChatGPT, friends, relatives, or check out fashion influencers or YouTubers to expand your knowledge. This way, your creations will have more appeal and you can diversify styles.

Each style has its own characteristic clothing set that defines its aesthetic. I hope this article has been helpful. Surely, there are thousands of fashion styles missing, and if I can, I'll research more and create other articles like this. In my creations, I experimented with each style, so check them out to get a clearer idea.
Also, play with poses, settings, cameras, lenses, and shots to give different touches to the image. Every style also has its own environment, so play with that to make the images more impactful.
