How To Wear Dress
Nothing
is more feminine like a pretty party dress. Whatever shape or size, all
women look fabulous in dresses. But you should choose the dress
carefully for a formal occassion or your office.
Here are some tips how to choose a dress for formal look or office:
Basics
If
you don't want hot or provocative look, wear a dress that is
knee-length or slightly below the knee. A dress higher than knee will
look provocative and hot and may not be suitable for any occassion.
Choose a plain and solid-colored dress or one with a normal or conservative pattern. Nice colors for dress are pastel shades, black, white, neutrals, grays, blues. A very brightly colored dress or an too much bold coloured pattern might not be good for formal look.
Convert The Look
Take
care of top half of the dress while shopping. Generally most of the
pretty dresses expose too much of your chest area or they have halter
tops. So, such dresses may be great for a summer party or fun time but
they are definitely inappropriate for the office or formal occassions.
There are some simple clothing items that can transform your hot party dress to a office or formal dress like jacket, camisole and the shrug. These clothings will cover your exposing skin and also they will convert the glamorous look of your dress to a sober and formal look.
Proper Under or Support-Garment
Wear
proper bra. It look very absurd that your breasts are falling out of
your dress. Purchase some quality strapless bras, or adhesive bra
(invisible bra) which are specially made for such dress. Always get a
properly fitted bra which adequately supports and lifts your
breasts.
Accessories
Too much jewelry often distract the eye from the main concern, you, or your dress too. Keep jewelry to a minimum. Never wear excessive jewelry with any dress. Too much jewelry with a dress also make you look more or less odd. It may also be distracting, especially if your work involves contact with clients. Select a delicate pair of earrings and not too large.
Footwear
Keep your shoes simple and not flashy. Heels are always top choice. They make you look taller, producing long, elegant lines and also enhance the shape of your legs. Never wear clunky, block-heeled shoes. You can try a pair of pumps, whether closed-toed or strappy sandals, flats, peep-toes, pointy-toes, closed-toes. Don't go for sandals, athletic shoes, or special occasion shoes.
Remember, you look more feminine in a dress than in pants and shirt. It also hide more flaws of your body figure. Dresses based on waist-line or line raised above the waist are great choices for most body types because they create more attractive and flattering feminine proportions. Shirt-dresses are also a workable option. Look for a dress that fits your body well.
