在刚刚过去的一周里,全国多地的倾盆大雨来势凶猛。但千万不要让雨水破坏了你的个人形象。纵观时尚界,你会发现一些“天气友好型”的配饰同样能抵御瓢泼大雨。
The British brand Burberry, which opened a flagship store in Shanghai two years ago, has become iconic for its line of rubber boots and rain *slickers. US pop singer Ariana Grande was also spotted last year wearing a transparent raincoat while performing on the BBC.
两年前于上海开设旗舰店的英国品牌博柏利,已经因其雨鞋和雨衣系列而成为时尚标杆。在去年的一场英国广播公司的表演中,美国流行歌手爱丽安娜•格兰德就穿着一件透明雨衣亮相。
But nothing is more timeless than a simple umbrella. With some fashionable twists, you can look as sleek on rainy days as you do on sunny ones.
但相比之下,一把设计简单的雨伞永远不会过时。如果稍作些时尚改动,就算是在雨天,你也能看起来像在晴天里一样时髦。
Underside prints
内层图案
It’s hard to avoid getting mud on your umbrella during rainy days. But why settle for a dull black umbrella, just to avoid getting smudge marks on the *canopy? Thanks to underside prints, you can have all the advantages of an umbrella with a solid-colored exterior, but under the *awning, you get to enjoy custom patterns and designs. The underside of your umbrella can even feature classic paintings, like Vincent van Gogh’s The Starry Night.
下雨天,雨伞恐怕很难不沾上泥水。但仅仅为了伞面上的泥印,难道我们就只能选择一把纯黑的雨伞了么?好在雨伞内层也可以有图案了,你不仅可以尽享一把纯色雨伞的所有优点,还能在伞顶之下欣赏到定制的图案和设计。雨伞内层甚至可以绘上经典名画的图案,比如文森特•梵高的《星空》。
The bubble umbrella
泡泡伞
Ever since Blair Waldorf, the Gossip Girl character, strolled through the rain holding a bubble-like umbrella, fashionistas have been *clamoring for a clear, *domed umbrella of their own. As its name suggests, a bubble umbrella is made of transparent material, through which you can easily observe the watery world. Its non-traditional canopy shape also means that it not only covers your head, but also your shoulders.
自从看到美剧《绯闻女孩》里的主角布莱尔•沃尔多夫手持一把泡泡伞在雨中漫步,时尚达人们也开始争先恐后地想要得到一把半球形的透明伞。就像它的名字那样,泡泡伞由透明的材料制成,从而可以让你轻而易举地观察这个水汽弥漫的世界。而且它非传统的伞形不光能遮盖住头部,更能防止肩膀被雨水打湿。

Today’s umbrellas are built with cutting-edge technology. Take the Oombrella as an example. This umbrella, which started as a Kickstarter project, has sensors implanted in its canopy. When it connects to your smartphone, it sends you weather notifications through an app. The umbrella company Blunt has a different high-tech alternative. Some of its umbrellas feature technology from Tile, a tracking device company. Even if you lose the umbrella, you can trace its where
如今,雨伞还和前沿科技有了完美结合。以上过Kickstarter众筹项目的Oombrella 雨伞为例,这款雨伞的伞面配有传感器。当和智能手机相连时,它能通过一款手机应用向你发送天气提醒。保兰特雨伞公司则开发出了另一款高科技雨伞。这些雨伞配有定位设备制造商Tile的技术。就算把雨伞弄丢了,你还是可以在手机上找到它的位置。
