231120全网爆火的“美拉德穿搭”灵感居然源于烤肉?
▍原文
From the colorful "dopamine dressing" in the summertime to the recent "Maillard style," a new aesthetic trend featuring exciting color combinations is gaining popularity across social media in China.
The term "Maillard style" is actually a variant of the "Maillard reaction" of aesthetics. This phenomenon, well-known in Western cuisine, can be simply understood by the example where the color of raw steak changes during the gradual process of cooking.
Similarly, Maillard-inspired fashion involves creating layers of various shades of brown hues.
