Been found in pea designs, and a fashionista’s wardrobe without such a print was considered to be incomplete.

Pluses need to be careful when choosing clothes with pea prints - too large peas can make you more massive, but small ones are perfectly acceptable.

In addition, be sure to consider the background color, since peas on a light background will grow a little more fat than on a dark one.

If there are no questions with a polka-dot dress, then blouses, trousers, skirts and many other things require a more thoughtful approach. The most universal tip: leave the polka dots the only print in your look. For example, a pea blouse in combination with plain trousers will be the main highlight that distracts all attention to yourself.

Since peas are included in the list of classic geometric prints (stripes, cage, peas), you can combine them without any particular fear, but within reasonable limits. Such an image looks unusual and spectacular, however, for some, such an abundance of geometry may be excessive.
