An invitation to a wedding, a festive evening with friends, your own birthday, a meeting with classmates ... You can endlessly list activities for girls to wear an evening dress. You can also choose the outfit for a long time. Unfortunately, not everyone knows how to choose the right evening dress.

Some simply look at fashionable magazine covers and want to get the exact same ensemble, others overestimate the possibilities of their own figure. It is hardly worth giving examples when a beautiful dress looks great on one girl, but looks completely unattractive on another.

In many ways, the problem of choice is the lack of knowledge of basic things, such as styles. Among the various models you need to choose the one that ideally fits specifically on your figure, it will correspond to your external data, emphasize all the advantages and hide the drawbacks. It is no secret that often it turns out exactly the opposite.

Long styles

Today, dresses in the floor remain incredibly popular. They are made of translucent fabrics, fitted, with short petticoats, flirty top layers of skirts, with cuts, asymmetrical hangers, and so on.

In addition, the current solution is a long evening dress with stones and crystals. Its main advantage lies in the fact that it is suitable for ladies of any age, and may also be appropriate at various events, from weddings (of course, as a guest) to a simple corporate party.

A-silhouette

Perhaps never before has such a style gone out of fashion. This is one of the most popular models to this day. In many ways, thanks to Christian Dior, this silhouette will earn world-wide fame, because the famous designer presented a wide collection of dresses representing this particular style option.

The upper part is performed in the form of a corset, closing the line of the shoulders. A special and well-designed cut covers the tummy, masks plump hips, and also creates a waist effect, even if it is practically absent.

If necessary, you can adjust the shoulder line, depending on whether they are wide or narrow. To do this, you will have to experiment with cutouts on the neck and with the design of the neckline.

Mermaid

The silhouette of a mermaid is perfect for girls who want to focus on their beautiful hips. For these purposes, this style is the best. To the level of the knees, and in some models is located a little higher, the body is in a tight-fitting fabric.

It is also important to note that the lower part of the skirt is made in the form of a train. The styles may be different - with an open back, partially closed, with a similar design of the waist. As for the materials, satin and silk are deservedly popular.

Direct

As part of the fashion shows, designers managed to show that even straight styles can look spectacular and excellent for an evening dress. There are a lot of key highlights and "chips" in such dresses. For example, designers often use:

  • rich shades that attract attention;
  • original cut;
  • strap combinations;
  • wide sleeves;
  • unusual cutouts;
  • Decor made of appliqués, bead embroidery, patterns on a dense basis of the dress plays an important role.

Do not forget that due to the horizontal long lines of the attire, the owner becomes visually taller and slimmer.

The peculiarity of this style of evening dress is that his waist is overestimated, and the skirt is thin, flowing, decorated with a train.

If the breasts are large, then the straps should be wide.

With the help of the assembly and lace trim the bodice can visually enlarge the chest. That is why owners of lush breasts are not recommended to weight the upper part of their figure. Otherwise, the appearance will be ridiculous.

Empire will perfectly serve pregnant women who want to attend some events. With the help of the original style, pregnant and full ladies will hide their tummy, focusing specifically on the chest.

Greek style

Such a cut is suitable for long-legged and tall ladies. Depending on the solemnity, choose the desired degree of brightness shade. So, if it is a simple corporate party, then wear a dress of a neutral shade. If it is a wedding, birthday, then bright dresses will be quite appropriate.

Baby dollar

One of the most modern trends among the short styles is the imperial style and the so-called baby-dollar dresses.
