Instagram photo trends: example of stars, photos 2018
How has selfie fashion changed over the years? Remembering the old and learning the new through the example of celebrities.
Star beauties, like all girls, simply adore uploading their photos to social networks. It is they who set the trends in the photo, which then fly around the world in a matter of days, and they are copied by millions.
Now the most popular pose has become Insta-split, when celebrities show off not only their long slender legs, but also excellent stretching and flexibility. In fact, an insta split is a twine variation.
The first such picture was posted on the network Victoria Beckham… Then similar pictures were shared Courtney Kardashian, Kate Beckinsale, Katy Perry, Rita Ora, Kaya Gerber and many other celebrities. Russian stars in the relay have not yet been noticed, although, I think, Anastasia Volochkova will gladly pick up such a trend.
Wday.ru remembered what else was considered fashionable on social networks, and followed the evolution of Instagram photos using the example of stars.
Duckface, or “lips of a duck”
If you want lips like Jolie’s, but nature has not so generously endowed, then making the lips “duck” in the photo is an ideal option. Once upon a time, all tapes in social networks were full of selfies with a duckface. This trick, by the way, theoretically not only visually enlarged the lips, but also helped to “slim” the cheeks in the photo. But it didn’t look very natural. Moreover, many girls in pursuit of beauty in the picture tried to pout their lips as much as possible, and it looked completely caricatured.
It’s good that the fashion for duckface is a thing of the past. Although some people are still natural (or, at worst, beauty injections) prefer to simply fold their lips with a duck. Among the lovers of such photos, for example, Ksenia Borodina.
The “ducks” in social networks were replaced by “fish”. The trend for a languidly open mouth was immediately aptly dubbed “fish yawn.” Parted lips are supposed to add sexuality to the shot. And in general, this technique really works. Again, if you don’t overdo it. Almost all the stars – singers, actresses, and especially models – fell in love with the “fishy yawn”.
“Oh, how my head hurts,” as if the star beauties want to say when they gracefully put their hand to their forehead or temple. In fact, this is a much safer and more invisible way to “improve” the face than the previous ones. Firstly, the hand slightly tightens the skin (such a mini-lift), and this pose makes the cheekbones more visible and raises the eyebrows. A nice bonus – at the same time, you can demonstrate a fresh manicure.
Why it once became fashionable to photograph yourself in an elevator is not clear. However, what not to do while driving down from the top floor of the skyscraper. In addition, this is an occasion to demonstrate the new thing in which you are going to go out into the city this time.
However, the excitement around lift bows has long subsided. But some stars no, no, yes, and will make a similar picture from old memory.
Now a photo from the ladies’ room of some institution is considered bad form. But there was a time when toilet bows “sawed” everything – from megastars to mere mortals. And this was not only a reason to show yourself to be loved, but also, as if by chance, check into a trendy restaurant or club.
By the way, some are still nostalgic for the past, and you can find similar pictures on their Instagram.
Sausage legs and bikini bridge
No matter how much Internet users ridiculed beach photos with tanned sausage legs against the backdrop of the azure sea, girls still continue to be photographed like that. And what? here you will show slender legs, and boast of a gorgeous view of the waves and sand.
Another type of such a selfie is a “bikini bridge”, which should clearly show the gap between the sunken belly and the swimsuit, and the protruding pelvic bones.
Ideal for beach shots, it really resembles the pose of a Barbie doll. As a general rule, one leg is slightly bent at the knee and rests only on the toe. This makes your legs appear visually longer and slimmer, even if you are not wearing heels. By the way, the Barbie pose can be taken while sitting, for this you need to stretch your legs and just bend one at the knee slightly.
This pose has become the second most popular pose this summer. She is somewhat reminiscent of the Barbie trend. Girls put one leg forward so that the feet are approximately on the same line. At the same time, unlike the previous version, both legs remain straight. By the way, the title is not just a metaphor. For some reason, it reminded Internet users of the first attempts of a newborn giraffe to get up and run.
The position of the body, when the girl sits with her legs bent under her, resembles the pose of the deer Bambi. Despite the mi-mish name, this posing looks very sexy. Especially girls with curvaceous forms love her – Kim Kardashian or Anastasia Kvitko.
