What style of dress looks perfect on any female figure? Dress in the style of "bat". Dresses to wear to a party

Each woman has an individual body shape and silhouette, but it is still customary to divide female figures into several types: apple, pear, small hourglass, large hourglass, rectangle, reed, inverted triangle. Each of these types has its own "ideal style".
Nowadays, when fashion ruthlessly subjugates women's minds and hearts, it's hard to resist the next "hit", even if it doesn't suit you at all. Don't forget that the purpose of clothing is to balance your silhouette and bring out your natural beauty! Not all fashion trends will benefit you and your figure, not in every boutique you will find "your" clothes and will feel comfortable and confident.

1. Inverted triangle.

You have this type of figure if:

Your shoulders are wider than your hips
- you have a wide chest
- jeans, trousers, skirts you buy in a smaller size than blouses
- you have "flat" buttocks and hips
- your legs are quite thin and long
- there is no clearly defined difference between the waist and hips
- when gaining weight, your figure becomes closer to the type of "apple" or "rectangle"

Stars with an inverted triangle shape:

Angelina Jolie

Cameron Diaz

To visually balance the figure, you should add a little volume from the bottom and hide the top, divert attention from it. Consider the clothes that girls with this type should choose.

Dresses

Choose dresses with a "V"-shaped neckline, deep oval or heart-shaped.

Avoid narrow, wide boat necklines.

The sun skirt is the perfect style for a type 1 figure.

A dress with a dark top and a light bottom will make your figure more proportional.

The emphasis on the waist will help you get closer to the ideal hourglass figure.

And the peplum will create volumes in those places where they are lacking.

Girls with an inverted triangle body type can afford a dress with horizontal stripes and it will not fill them up.

So: figures like "inverted triangle" contraindicated dresses with a dark narrow bottom and a light free top, with a boat neckline. Such dresses will make the shoulders even wider, and the hips even narrower.

But very I will come t dresses with a dark neutral top and a light bottom, in horizontal stripes, with a bright accent at the waist.

Tops & Shirts

The most successful option for girls with this type of figure are tops with butterfly sleeves, preferably a darker shade than a skirt or trousers.

Another great option is raglan sleeves.

A vest with a wide neckline can aggravate the situation with the problematic shoulder area.

And also you should not wear blouses with active elements in the chest area (ruffles, frills).

Skirts

For type 1, a light-colored skirt with a high waist and knee-length is desirable, one of these styles: pleated, a-line, peplum skirt.

Pleated.

Trapeze

Decorated with peplum.

A pencil skirt is definitely not your style!

But a light, free skirt with an "active" ornament will do its job!

Trousers

As for trousers, then the triangle girls are very lucky, because. they have, as I said before, long and slender legs. Flared jeans, classic, trousers, shorts, harem pants .. you can choose any. Unless skinny jeans should be worn with caution, because the upper body can prevail in this set. If you choose jeans/trousers that are tight enough, the lightest shades should be preferred.

Swimwear

It may seem that on the beach we are not protected in any way, and all those who have complexes about their figure cannot be harmed. In fact, a swimsuit, like clothes, can correct some features of the body structure.

The same rule works here - the bottom should be lighter than the top.

The combination of top and bottom from different sets is really very relevant now. Therefore, for an "inverted triangle" figure, a solid dark top and an "active" bottom, possibly from another set, should be suitable. Let it have an unusual ornament or a banal horizontal strip.

Girls who prefer plain swimsuits should look at different types of decorating the bottom of the set, such as ruffles, flowers, "skirt".

And for lovers of one-piece swimsuits, there are such "waist-forming" elements:

A few rules about shoes:
- too high a heel can accentuate the "bulkyness" of the upper torso
- look at the models of shoes with medium heels. Angelina and Kate choose just such!
- be careful with sports shoes. Wear it exclusively "on business", because. your figure is so close to athletic.
- Feminine ballet flats will complement well the ensemble with a skirt - A-line or the sun.

Thus, we can conclude that girls with an inverted triangle body type are suitable for:

Dark top and light bottom
Flying fabrics
Deep cuts
A-line and pleated skirts
Basque in any of its manifestations
Pants of any style

2. Reed

In my opinion, the most comfortable body types are "reed" and "hourglass". Most fashion items are made for them. And if the "watch" is sexual curves, then the "reed" is their complete absence. Most of the models who show clothes on the catwalks have such a figure.

You are a "reed" if:

You wear the same size top and bottom
- you have small breasts
- as well as narrow hips
- rather "bony" physique.
- if you gain weight, then your figure becomes similar to type No. 3 - a rectangle.

Star Examples:

The main reed is Twiggy, who in the 60s introduced the fashion for such a figure among models.

Modern reeds:

Rooney Mara

Keira Knightley

Vanessa Paradis

Most modern models are also owners of a type 2 figure.

Miranda Kerr

Is it necessary to advise something to girls whose proportions seem to be observed, and the upper body is in harmony with the lower one? It depends on what you want and what you like? - I want to emphasize my slightly boyish figure, emphasize fragility and grace, or add volume and give my body a more feminine rounded shape.

First, I will appeal to those who like to be a "reed" and want to emphasize this in every possible way.

Dresses

Girls - reeds, like no other go dresses - overalls, tunics of a free cut. Like this from DVF for example:

Dresses - shirts will also look great on you, moreover, both belted and not. While pear girls should say a categorical NO to such dresses!

A dress decorated with guipure can harm a figure with shapes, but very will go skinny.

The rule will also help to emphasize fragility. combine incompatible : light dresses and rough shoes, tight dresses and massive jewelry.

Tops and blouses

The looser the cut of the blouse, the more graceful your neck, wrists, and other bare parts of the body will be.

Current large-knit sweaters too go reeds more than others.

Trousers

Since the lower part of the figure type 2 is similar to type 1, trousers can also be almost anything.
Girls with a proportional figure and long legs can afford even the most extravagant models, as well as a shortened length.

Oh yes, Skinny - tailor-made for you! Use it ;)

Now a few tips for those who want to correct their figure in favor of a more rounded one. For these girls, the rules described above will not work.

Dresses.

It is necessary to wear airy dresses with a belt to create an hourglass effect and outline the waist.

But there is a possibility that such a dress will "hang" on very tiny reeds. Such girls should look at dresses of the same style, but made of thicker fabric, so that the skirt "stands" a little.

Well, the most effective option: a dress with a lush skirt decor + bodice with a push-up effect.

Blouses and tops:

It is worth giving preference to the most feminine styles, for example, with ribbons, bows or ruffles in the chest area.

Combining such a blouse with pleated or long high skirts, you will achieve the desired shape.

And from printed t-shirts worth refuse.

Skirts

You can try adding volume with a peplum. Or try a sun skirt:

Trousers

Loose trousers, flared jeans, "active decor", pockets - try these options.

Swimwear

It is worth giving up swimsuits without a cup, and resorting to a wonderful push-up;)

As for shoes, any models will suit you!
By the way, not all types of girls can wear Cossacks, rough black rivet shoes, Timbirland and much more - but it will suit you very much! Oh, and heels, of course ;)

3. Rectangle

A figure of this type is in many ways similar to the second type, the reed.
So you are a rectangle if:

You wear the same size top and bottom
- shoulders and hips are almost the same width
- You don't have a defined waist
- has a small belly
- your body weight is greater than that of the -reed type
- your legs look a little "massive"
- when you gain weight, it is distributed almost evenly, or you are approaching the apple type.

Star Examples:

Katherine Heigl

Hilary Duff

Vanessa Hudgens

Dresses

You should give preference to dresses with decorations at the waist, for example, gathered or embellished with an unusual belt. This Lanvin dress is perfect.

And just like that, with a smell at the waist.

Tops & Blouses

Tops with thin straps should be avoided. they can visually expand the shoulders.

Prefer romantic blouses with a neckline that emphasizes the length of your neck, and is mid-thigh length. The belt at the waist will make the figure more proportional.

And ruched cardigans:

Trousers

Pants and jeans should not be too tight. Choose other models for yourself: flared, wide from the hip.

Skirts

It is more difficult for girls with the 3rd type of figure to pick up a skirt than others. too short models may not suit your legs, and long ones will make the image too heavy.

Choose mid-length skirts. For example, an understated trapezoid.

And, in any case, do not buy a pencil skirt!

Swimwear

Choose the brightest and most flashy options for separate swimsuits, let everyone look at him, not paying attention to minor flaws in the figure.

If you want to go out in a one-piece, give preference to what is decorated with diagonal stripes.

A little about shoes:

Girls - rectangles need to rise to the heel as often as possible
- choose pumps for evening and cocktail dresses!
- Avoid bulky shoes
- if you like to wear ankle boots, choose the most feminine models, and do not buy elongated black ones!
- the Cossacks may not go to you, because your legs may appear shorter than they really are.

Let's sum up result. Rectangle women should wear:

semi-tight clothing;
neckline of varying degrees of depth;
A-line skirts;
belts with any kind of clothing.

"Rectangles" are strictly contraindicated:

too tight, tight-fitting things;
shapeless hoodies, baggy things;
tight skirts, too narrow trousers.

4. Apple

Almost every one of us has been (or will be) an "apple" for at least 9 months;)
But let's talk now about those who have type 4 figures, not expecting a baby.
So you are an apple if:

You wear a larger top than your bottom
- you have a full belly or large breasts
- you have flat buttocks, not wide hips and thin legs
- if you gain weight, then most often it is distributed in the upper part of the body (shoulders, arms get fatter) and your figure approaches the inverted triangle type.

Star Examples:

Reese Witherspoon

Lucy Hail

Dresses

Tight dresses are not suitable for girls with this type of figure, because. the figure due to the lack of hips may look out of proportion.
But dresses "under the chest" will do.

As well as dresses with a corset.

And cut on an oblique.

Blouses and tops

Girls - apples should not wear very tight sweaters, but they should not be too loose either. You need to strike a balance, for example, like this:

A top tunic like this one from DvF is sure to suit you.

Wear vests, they will make you slimmer.

Jackets worn over a blouse/top are also help balance the shape.

Costs avoid puffy sleeves.

Skirts

Choose skirts in light colors, with a high waist, and combine them with a semi-fitted top. You can complement the set with a fitted jacket.

The best length is to the knee.

Short and long skirts can only exacerbate situation.

Trousers

The high cut is just what you need. But do not take too tight models, it is better to give preference to elastic fabrics.

Slightly cropped trousers with a straight or slightly (!) Narrowed cut, combined with a tunic and heels, is a good option.

Jeans on the hips will look on you extremely bad.

Remember there is nothing worse than hanging sides!

Swimwear

It is not easy for girls with a full belly to choose a swimsuit for themselves.
I advise you to choose a continuous, darkest shade. Only not on thin straps!

It should also be noted that girls of this type should wear high heels, she will lift you above the ground, or on a wedge, because. it will create a balance between bottom and top.

5. Pear

You are this type if:

You have extra weight on your hips, possibly on your legs
- Shoulders narrower than hips
- small bust
- your waist is clearly defined, but a small belly may show through below
- you wear larger pants than tops

Star Examples:

Mischa Barton

Jennifer Love Hewitt

Kim Kardashian

Dresses

For girls - pears, as for others, the rule applies: the figure can be balanced with the help of the color of the clothes. Thus, choose dresses with dark bottoms and light tops.

This Mango dress is also good because the animal color of the top attracts attention, distracting from the hips.

Also very suitable dresses made of light fabric, floral coloring, with a V-neck, or with a wrap. They will elongate your silhouette.

It is necessary to abandon thin straps in favor of thicker ones in order to give balance to the figure!

Peplum, as you know, not only gives the missing volume, but also helps to hide the extra centimeters in the hips.

As for long dresses, they are simply made for your figure. Take, for example, this is from Balmain

Blouses and tops

Do not choose too tight and too loose blouses. A tight top can accentuate the difference between the chest/shoulders and hips, and a baggy item will turn you into a teddy bear;)

If you bought a thing with thin straps or without them at all, and you are confused by the difference between the top and bottom of the body, I suggest wearing this top with a floor-length skirt and a jacket.

By the way, about the jacket: he shouldn't end at the widest point of the thigh. Either at the waist or a little lower!

Skirts and trousers

Main, refuse from high waist. She does not go to pear girls. Pants at the waist will make your buttocks even more prominent! Also, you can not wear things with patch pockets!

Do not buy patterned (floral) pipe trousers fashionable this season! All attention should be drawn to the top. The bottom should be solid and not catchy.

Classic straight jeans the best option for your figure.

Skinny jeans are not for you! Their very name screams about it, because skinny is skinny.

Leggings too unsuitable pear-shaped figure.

A knee-length sun skirt really suits pear girls.
Lightweight Nina Ricci skirt:

And further! Girls of this type are easy prescribed by the doctor- heels! Try a high thin hairpin! No chunky shoes as they will make your bottom even heavier!

6. Small hourglass (MUCH).

This is the type of figure that excites the hearts of men, and which all women aspire to!

You are an MPH if:

You have the same size top and bottom
- you have breasts and your buttocks are rounded
- you have a thin waist
- and slender legs
- you do not have excess weight, otherwise you are not a MCH but a large hourglass, type No. 7

Stars of the 6th type:

Dita Von Teese is the most striking example of MUCH.

Megan Fox

Irina Shayk

In fact, small watches can wear everything! There are any styles and any variations of the usual elements of clothing.

Dresses

All the styles of dresses described above, whether it be:
- wrap dresses
- with a deep neckline
- with a sun skirt
- high waisted
- Lightweight with a belted waist
- peplum dresses

And others suit you :)

I would like to add a sheath dress.

Strapless dress.

And a bandage dress! Which will not work for anyone like you!

Plain dresses on your figure will look more profitable than motley! Everyone will undoubtedly pay attention to the curves of your body;)

Blouses and tops:

Tops without straps, like dresses, will suit you very much.

However, all other styles will be the same go for the benefit of your figure!

Try to avoid only jackets with a collar and a boat neckline, they will make the upper body larger than the lower one)

And when choosing a jacket, pay attention to those that reach the middle of the thigh, they will make you even slimmer.

Skirts

If you are a MUCH with slender long legs, you are just obliged to give the world their beauty, and often wear mini skirts.

As well as pencil skirts, pleated skirts, trapezes ... all all all)

Fashionable this season skirts with hem - will look great on you!

Trousers

Jeans with a mid-rise fit are the best way to emphasize your figure.
If you prefer cropped trousers, choose a length just below the middle of the calf, then your ankles will look even slimmer!

Swimwear

In a bathing suit you are just a goddess, you don’t need to emphasize anything, everyone sees everything perfectly :)

So, a woman with an hourglass figure can safely wear:

tight clothes;
delicate, flowing fabrics;
things with a neckline of various depths;
dresses that focus on the waist;
straight-cut trousers and shirts.

7. Large hourglass (BHR)

You are BHR if:
- you have very large breasts and wide hips
- you wear the same size top and bottom
- your waist is clearly defined
- you are overweight

Stars:

Anfisa Chekhova

Anna Semenovich

If you lose weight, your figure will definitely turn into a MCH, but for now, do not forget that you should also emphasize the dignity of the figure, because each type has its fans. There are much more connoisseurs of impressive forms than we think!;)

Dresses

Choose the most fitted options.

Light (a little frivolous) short dresses with a floral print can turn you into a teapot lady.

And a strapless dress will make your chest hang

Do not think that black is the only color that can make you slimmer. Blue, green, red, eggplant, gray - choose deep shades of these colors!

Do not take an example from Alla Borisovna. Hoodie dresses are not your choice!

Blouses and tops

Bright lipstick + deep neckline + beautiful decoration in this area will attract all men's looks, and do their job:)

Don't wear strapless tops (as well as dresses). your breasts need support!

Skirts

Length to the knee and to the floor - the best option.

Remember that a too full skirt and various ruffles / frills will also make you the very woman on the teapot, you don’t need this! A magnificent mini - will turn the exit into the light into a disaster.

Trousers

Strict styles of dark color.

Classic jeans.

And no Skinny. That would be a big mistake! ;)

Swimwear.

When choosing a separate option, pay attention to the support of your chest!
And give up shapeless triangles, because of them everyone can simply not notice your wonderful waist;)

The fashion for the female silhouette changes almost every year. A few years ago, skinny ladies were popular. But women with outstanding forms had to try to find a garment to their liking.

Now designers have given the green light to figures with lush volumes. Now you do not need to look for specialized stores.

Modern couturiers have taken care of the variety of styles and sizes. It is enough to know which dress will fit perfectly: it will hide the flaws and emphasize the dignity.

Despite the numerous advice and wishes of fashion designers, modern girls continue to make a number of mistakes that affect their appearance.

Short model in trendy polka dots

An option to get your favorite dress, in the modern world in abundance. You can order online, go shopping or rely on your own strength. For example, . However, not every style will suit you. In order not to make a mistake in choosing an outfit, you need to follow a few simple rules regarding:

1. size. Many are happy to squeeze into a dress with a number smaller than usual. But you need to objectively evaluate your real parameters and choose the appropriate model. The exception is girls with disproportionate figures. In this case, a size larger should be preferred.
2. Style. A properly selected dress model can hide flaws and emphasize the dignity of a woman. For example, a high waist can hide a protruding tummy out of sight (this is ideal), and puffy skirts will help smooth out a triangular-type figure.
3. Dress length. Lush ladies should completely abandon models with a miniskirt. You also need to carefully choose dresses with a long skirt: these are suitable only for tall girls, while undersized ones will only seem fuller. The ideal length is a couple of cm below or above the knee, depending on personal preference.
4. Sleeve lengths. It is a mistake to believe that a standard sleeve hides the fullness of the arms. In most cases, it only makes them more voluminous. The most spectacular length is three quarters.
5. Colors and prints. Lovers of bright ornaments may well afford several outfits in this color. This includes the lungs.

Winning styles

To create a truly feminine, sophisticated look, you need to choose not just a dress of the right size, but accurately guess with the style.

More recently, there was an opinion that full girls should hide all their flaws behind a shapeless hoodie. This time has passed, and now lush beauties can afford to look elegant even in bold ones.

Pupils are not only fragile. Girls with curvaceous forms are knocked down in search of the right one. Among the popular styles, suitable for volumetric types of figures can be distinguished:

• sheath dress;
• empire (high waist);
• new look;
• model with a smell;
• tunic.

Stylish tunics for "appetizing" shapes

Sheath dress. There is an opinion that this style is only for slender girls. But this is far from the case, because such a model can become an ornament even for a full figure. Recently, peplum dresses have come into fashion especially tightly. They perfectly emphasize the waist line and hide the tummy. Preference should be given to dark monochrome shades or vertical prints.

This style is quite versatile. Looks great option with high heels and a stylish jacket in the form of a business woman. Accessories and feminine shoes will complement the elegant evening dress.

“Case” will easily model a slim silhouette

Empire. Models in this style are ideal for women who crave to hide a prominent tummy and wide hips. The style, leading its history to distant Greece, will be able to cope with this task with a bang.

Light, flowing fabrics, a maxi skirt, high heels and an image ready to conquer more than a dozen men's hearts.

new look. The presence of a full figure is not a reason to wear hoodies. Youth dresses in the new look style can create a romantic look and it is not at all necessary to completely hide the legs for this. A fluffy skirt just below the knee is what you need to visually design a slim silhouette.

The color of such an outfit depends only on the personal preferences of the girl. Solid colors, small prints, horizontal stripes... there's definitely plenty to choose from.

Wrap style. A universal model that suits literally any type of figure. Thanks to the unique cut, the dress is able to emphasize the waist line, while visually hiding the tummy. Also, the chest in this outfit always looks amazing. This style is ideal for ladies whose sizes range from 70 to 74 (especially emphasizes breast volume).

The choice of fabric for a dress is just as important as the outfit itself. It should not be too thin and show all the irregularities of the body. Knitwear, silk, denim and cotton are what you need.

Orange wrap dress - juicy look

Tunic dress. This look belongs to the casual style. Thanks to the free cut, such an outfit hides all the flaws of the figure and does not restrict movement at all. Tunics are inherently just as diverse: long below the knee, short, with a long train at the back, lace, mesh, etc. In color, too, you should not be limited: from snow-white to.

Tunics are perfect for women with sizes 70-74. Especially if they are skillfully combined with leggings, shorts, tight tights, and complement the look with elegant heels or wedges.

Choosing the right dress style is half the road towards femininity, beauty and style.

Evening models

The main trend of the season was evening dresses in the Greek style, emphasizing the chest of the lady. With a high waist and a chic skirt that falls to the floor, the style perfectly hides imperfections.

Another trend is retro fashion. The return to the 20s marked the appearance of "dresses from the past" in many collections. These are ideal for a daytime event, as they have notes of a business, official style.

Evening look in retro style

The idea that only black is suitable for curvy ladies is a thing of the past. Modern designers such as Elena Miro, Marina Rinaldi prefer rich colors (red, blue, peach, etc.).

Evening dress is the richest outfit in the wardrobe of any fashionista. It must look undeniably expensive. For the best effect, you can use an elegant cape that gives a special gloss. But it should be understood that the high cost is not measured in the amount of sequins and other decorative materials, but, above all, in the quality of the fabric.

For the perfect evening dress, you need the right one. It should not overtighten and create unnecessary folds on the body. Bodysuits with a slimming effect are perfect.

Wedding masterpieces

Curvaceous brides tend to worry twice as much about choosing a wedding dress. Here it is worth understanding one truth: the fullness varies among themselves, so you need to select, first of all, depending on the type of figure of the young lady.

There are several profitable styles for full brides:

• A-silhouette;
• empire;
• "mermaid".

The A-line style is perfect for ladies whose figure resembles a pear. A corset hides all sorts of nuances, emphasizes a thin waist, while a fluffy skirt favorably hides wide hips.

Empire style looks perfect on women whose silhouette resembles the letter "O" or a rectangle. Such dresses are recommended for women with especially large forms. With a high waist, this style hides the hips and stomach, emphasizing the chest and face.

Fashionable youth options

Trends in modern fashion delight girls with curvy shapes. After all, at a young age you want to look really fresh and stylish. The designers took care of that too.

1. Floral print. Recently, flowers have become an integral part of most outfits. This print looks great on flared models, and on sheath dresses and sundresses. Full girls should give preference to small floral patterns on a dark background. This outfit will definitely transform the figure.
2. Tunics. It is a mistake to believe that such a style is for ladies well over 30. Thanks to modern ethnic motifs and somewhat reminiscent of hippie culture shirts, tunics have found a new life. They are a great everyday option, because they are worn mainly with low-soled shoes.
3. Simplicity. One-piece dress models are ideal. The main squeak of modern fashion is naturalness and simplicity. The simpler the outfit, the more interesting the lady looks. Choosing a similar style is difficult to miscalculate.
4. Dress-shirt/t-shirt. Where would modern fashionistas be without such outfits? Such dresses are distinguished by their short length, and therefore it is worth thinking several times before purchasing.

Everyone loves to wear dresses? The fashion for tight trousers and ripped jeans is so overwhelmed by modern youth that you can’t immediately distinguish who is a girl or a guy? The line between women's and men's clothing has blurred. Now girls most often prefer men's clothing, and young men are not shy about dismantling trousers, pink blouses and deep cutouts. Soon the skirts will be taken away in retaliation for the trousers. I just want to shout: “Fashion, stop! What are you doing?". And the sexual revolution is to blame for everything, and not only, but more on that next time.

In this article, I want to share with you the knowledge of what styles of dresses are and a description of the appearance of dresses. There are a lot of models of dresses, it is not always possible to remember everything at once. It happened to me as well. Fashion does not stand still, the types of dresses are constantly updated with new models and, accordingly, names. To quickly determine the style of the dress, I decided to compile a dictionary of types of dresses and their name, a detailed description of the type of dress. I think this tip will be useful not only to me, but also to you.

Description of the appearance of dresses

Or in another way, a dress with frills. Where does such a strange name come from? Translated from eng. "smock" is a decoration with frills. Ruffles in a dress of this model begin under the bust and end above the knee. The top can be strapless or even with a deep neckline and bare shoulders. But this is the standard style of the dress, which can be modified, the frills remain the main ones.

Experts say that this outfit is suitable for plump women, pregnant women and especially tall women. I strongly disagree with the first two, but I absolutely support the third. In addition, I will say that thin girls of low and medium height can wear such a model. This is a great option with heels for a cocktail option. Ruffles belong to the romantic style and look great on young fashionistas.

A very curious name. Is not it? Again, it takes its origin from Eng. "shift" - shift or move. If you look closely at the dress, then there is nothing like it in it.

It got its name during the years of the youth revolution in America in the late 50s, when street freedom destroyed conservatism. The shift dress advertised to everyone the independence of young people and disobedience to the authorities. This affected the shift in social order, as well as moving to a new level in fashion.

If we turn to the history of fashion, then initially the dress looked like a high collar, sleeveless, straight, short with simple lines. And like everything else, it has evolved and changed. A dress of this type is sewn from knitwear, wool and other similar materials. It suits almost any type of figure and fits perfectly into the wardrobe of an active girl.

A modern culotte dress resembles a regular jumpsuit, only the lower part is very loose, like a trouser skirt. Length and colors vary. The fabric is preferably knit, chiffon or jeans. This version of the dress will advantageously hide the wide hips and emphasize the waist. If you correctly take into account the color and all the details, then in this outfit you can safely go to work.

Trumpet dress

It fits the figure tightly from the top to the level of the knees or slightly higher. Then it expands sharply into the floor, it can also have a train. A dress of this silhouette is also called a "fish" or "gode".

A trumpet dress is perfect for an hourglass figure, as well as a figure with a thin waist and wide hips. This style is used for tailoring luxurious evening and wedding dresses. Festive fabrics are chosen: silk, chiffon, satin, guipure, lace, organza, taffeta, etc.

A dress of this type takes its roots from the distant Middle Ages, when it was not yet a dress, but only a lower, loose shirt. To tell the truth, the shirt did not become a dress and then. This is again our enterprising Cristobal Balenciaga in the late 1950s, who invented and released a free knee-length dress, which caused indignation in high society.

It’s just that in those days, secular fashionistas were accustomed to feminine and fitted silhouettes. And such a sharp drop sowed confusion and commotion. Despite all this, the shemez dress still took root in society, thanks to its convenience and versatility.

Now the dress of this model is especially in demand, it is sewn with short or long sleeves. Even due to baggy, it does not lose its aesthetic merits at all, which determines its simplicity and ease.

Baby dollar dress

The ancestor of this dress is an ordinary peignoir, but it gained wide popularity in the 50s after the release of the movie "Baby doll". Charming Carroll Baker, the main character, flaunted in short dresses with frills throughout the film. And in fact, this style of dress resembles a cute, children's outfit.

But on slender, young girls, he looks especially feminine and attractive. The dress is sewn free, with a high waist, short arms or without them. Fabrics are light and airy, trimmed with lace or sewing.

Tutu dress

Judging by the name, the thought of a tutu immediately comes to mind, and not by chance. The lower part of the dress is sewn from several layers of tulle (6-15 layers) to create maximum splendor. The bodice itself, the top of the dress tightly fits the figure.

This model came into fashion in the 80s. Indecisive fashionistas doubted to immediately put on an extravagant outfit for the public. It was all about the transparency of the skirt. The first to dare to use a fancy dress was the queen of American pop music, Madonna. Then she was picked up by actress Sarah Jessica Parker.

Now no one is surprised by this dress, young girls actively choose it for parties, creating anime and rock costumes. If you want to know more, then read: Romantic and airy tutu dress, also widely used for sewing wedding dresses.

The main thing is not to forget that this style of dress is not for everyone. First of all, consider the slimness of the legs and figure, but it will perfectly hide the wide hips.

balloon dress

In 1951, the same Belenciaga again surprised everyone with his marvelous creation - a balloon dress. With this, he reconstructed the proportions of the female figure, modifying the skirt of the dress by reducing the length of the lining. This trick made it possible to add volume to the lower part of the dress. To enhance the effect, the top of the skirt was gathered into an assembly or pleat, and then decorated with embroidery or a print.

This model perfectly hides the protruding belly and full hips. Different fabrics are used for tailoring, depending on the purpose - knitwear for everyday wear, chiffon, brocade, taffeta for the evening. Other variations are also possible.

Kimono dress

It has long been the national dress of Japanese women and has more than 1500 years. To emphasize the most feminine parts of the body - the neck and arms, the kimono sleeves are made wide and hanging.

In modern fashion, this traditional outfit has found popularity around the world. It is used in everyday wear, home and evening wear.

Fabrics are bright and natural, mostly silk. The dress is cut loose without buttons with a smell. The uniqueness of the kimono dress is that it fits any figure.

Tunic dress

Let's go back to history, or rather to ancient Greece, where the tunic was the main clothing. From the ancient Greek "tunic" means "shell". It was worn by both wealthy and poor citizens. There were no gender differences in wearing tunics; everyone wore them. Only the length, the quality of the fabric, the presence of decorations and decorations changed.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the tunic returned to fashion, sewn from pleated silk. In the 60s, thanks to Yves Saint Laurent and the hippie movement, tunics in ethnic styles came into fashion. A tunic with sand-colored lacing becomes a hit. The tunic dress is still relevant today because of its free cut, which will suit any woman.

And for a party, short tunics made of elegant fabrics are suitable, in the summer heat tunics made of light, natural fabrics.

Dress shirt

As you probably guessed, this is due to the usual shirt. And right! The top of the dress looks like a man's shirt and continues down in a straight line to the desired length. It can also be detachable, while the lower part can be selected from the varieties of skirt models. Dress shirt, like everyone else, has its own history.

In the 18th century, this type of dress was especially popular among ladies, but as an undershirt. They sewed such an item of clothing from Indian taffeta. Then, at the beginning of the 20th century, Coco Chanel picked up this idea and created a new model of everyday dress - a dressing gown. Our old friend Yves Saint Laurent also did not pass by this discovery, and in the 60s of the same century he successfully improved it.

After that, it began to look like this: loose in the shoulders and tight-fitting on the hips, in addition to a leather belt. Now the shirt dress has become an integral part of the women's wardrobe and is sewn from different types of materials. It is suitable for any type of figure, fits perfectly into everyday and business environment.

Dress sheath

Perhaps the most indispensable thing in the wardrobe of every woman. Ladies, do you know what I mean? The ingenious Coco Chanel came up with this simple and elegant dress back in 1926, and to this day there are no analogues to it. But it didn't start out easy. The spoiled public did not immediately appreciate the new invention of Chanel. Only after 2 years it truly became independent and had the right to change colors.

In the 30s and 60s, the fashion for a little black dress swept the entire beautiful half of humanity. Including Audrey Hepburn and Jacqueline Kennedy.

What is the secret? Let's find out! The silhouette of the dress is tight-fitting, sleeveless or sleeved, with a zip at the back. The shape of the neck is round or oval, sometimes it is allowed in the evening versions of the square. The peculiarity of the dress lies in the length (midi) and tight fit, all this visually slims the figure. It will favorably emphasize any type of figure, it all depends on the choice of fabric, colors, accessories, neckline and sleeve length.

A sophisticated version of a wrap-around home dressing gown. The first to discover this discovery was the American Coco Chanel - Diana von Furstenberg in 1972. The impetus for the creation of a magnificent, casual dress was a divorce from her husband of royal blood. At the beginning, the dress was made of cotton with viscose, bright colors, floral prints and a deep neckline.

In America, women quickly noticed an extraordinary novelty and began to actively buy it. They were the first to appreciate the versatility and practicality of the model. Now the wrap dress is sewn from a variety of fabrics and colors. In terms of demand, it is not inferior to other models of dresses, and the famous fashion designer to this day pleases ladies with new collections of clothes.

Who should wear a wrap dress? Owners of a luxurious figure, lush breasts with wide hips. Due to the deep neckline, the figure is visually stretched, and the belt at the waist reduces the volume. Where to go in a dress? Feel free to wear it to work, a party or a date. Success guaranteed!

Dress A - silhouette

The inventor of this model is the famous fashion designer Christian Dior. In 1955, at the show of the spring collection called A-line collection, he presented his new discovery.

From that moment on, dresses of this style are called A-line. This is a generalized name for dresses that have an A-line silhouette, while the expansion of the dress can start from the waist, shoulders or chest.

Sundress

The source of the appearance of the sundress is considered to be the women's clothing of the Slavs. In Europe, too, each nation had its own varieties of sundress. In addition, there is an opinion that compared to the kimono and Indian sari, the sundress is relatively young. In the Russian chronicle, the first mention of it dates back to the 14th century, and in the 18th century it absolutely took root among the peasants.

It was worn over a shirt as an apron. In the 19th century, a straight-cut sundress with straps appeared, and 100 years later, an improved version of the modern suit - a bodice and a skirt. The original sundress has a free shape, sometimes it changes under the influence of fashion.

Dresses to the knees can be safely called universal. This outfit should be in every woman's wardrobe! Our article can become a "compass" for modern fashionistas. We will tell you how to choose the right length, color, style of the outfit.

The knee-length dress is once again taking the lead in the fashion world in 2019-2020. Thanks to a huge number of styles, styles and colors, a midi dress can be worn for any event, whether it's a date, a party, or just walking with friends.

Knee length dress is the perfect choice

Such models are suitable for any woman, regardless of her age and figure structure - the main thing is to choose the right style. Models of such dresses are sophisticated, elegant, delicate, feminine, they are able to emphasize the graceful lines of the female silhouette.

The main secret of the popularity of the midi dress is the perfect length. If you make the hem a little higher and expose your knees, you will already be on the fine line between beauty and vulgarity, and if you lower it below the knees, this can make it impossible to demonstrate the beauty and grace of the figure. The perfectly matched length of the midi dress makes this outfit versatile, suitable for both festive events and as everyday wear.

When choosing a midi dress, you should listen to some tips.

How to choose midi dresses

Dress length

The best option is when the hem of the garment reaches a length slightly below the knees, mid-calf or slightly above the ankle. Do not choose a model that reaches the middle of the calves, as you will visually make the legs look fuller and the height - lower. When choosing the length of the outfit, start from the length of your legs and the height of the heel.

Height

It is generally accepted that only tall girls can wear midi-style dresses. But such an opinion is erroneous, such a model is universal, it is suitable for a girl of any height. For short ladies, you can choose an option just below the knee (for example, the pencil model). You need to wear such a dress with shoes with heels.
There is a rule here, the lower the hem of the clothes falls, and the smaller the heel you put on, the lower the height visually becomes. This rule is worth adopting. In principle, this is a good way out for very tall young ladies who want to look petite.

Shoes

For women of medium and short stature, shoes and ankle boots with stilettos, high boots are suitable. In the latter version, please note that the dress should not even partially cover the boots. Tall women can experiment with flats or low heels.

Model

For slender girls, running around models will be a good style. A more versatile warrant is the A-line. You can accentuate with a belt at the waist. At the same time, you should not overload the image with decorative accessories and excessive layering.

Choosing outerwear for a midi dress

Everything should be proportional here. The ideal option is long raincoats or coats that cover the skirt or, conversely, short jackets and jackets. For retro style and classics, fur coats and coats can be used as tops.

Nowadays, there is a huge variety of models of knee-length dresses. Consider the most popular of them.

Knee length lace dress

Wearing an outfit with lace, you can create a cute, romantic look. Lace dresses are worn both in the daytime and in the evening. Light-colored laces are used for daytime styles, and black or dark laces can be used for evening styles.

Knee sleeve dress

This style can be used for any season: in winter - it can be knitted and knitted models, in summer - chiffon and silk. With the help of a well-chosen style of sleeves, you can visually adjust the figure. For example, raglan models visually reduce wide shoulders.

Little black knee length dress

Such an outfit should be in the wardrobe of every woman, because it is suitable for any situation. And by adding additional accessories or jewelry to it, choosing the right shoes, you can create an unforgettable image. A black midi dress will suit both a business woman and a romantic girl, lovers of both classic and modern style. A black mid-length dress is the best way to demonstrate elegance and good taste.

Empire style dress

This style of dress is different in that the waist is lower or higher. It all depends on the figure. It is better for plump ladies to wear a low waist, and for thin girls it is better to wear an oversized one in order to visually adjust the figure.

Midi dress accessories

As for accessories, the main thing here is not to overdo it. Golden rule: everything should be in moderation. For example, a dress with frills does not need additional accessories.
