Short Formal Dresses
Cocktail dresses were originally designed for women to wear out to an important
function or for a special evening event. Though still considered formal wear,
women nowadays are taking this garment in whole new directions. Today, the dresses are worn at a variety of different events and functions and in the earlier part of the evening as well as the later part of the afternoon.
When selecting a cocktail dress, you want to choose something that is in style.
Make sure, however, that it is fashionable for you because all women are built
differently. Not all women can get away with wearing all the types of formal
dresses that are out there. Each figure type can find a variety of suitable
dresses. Most women have a regular type figure, with some lucky enough to have the body of a supermodel.
One of the important things to consider when shopping for a formal garment is body type. Formal wear should flatter a woman's complete figure. Women who are more bottom-heavy (larger below the waist) should keep the focus on the upper part of their bodies and their faces. If a woman is top-heavy (larger above the waist), she should draw attention to the lower half of her body, possibly focusing on her legs.
For a woman who is bottom-heavy, a fashionable cocktail dress should have a form-
fitting waistline, but should not be too tight. A flared look is vital for the
skirt portion of the dress. This look will help to conceal some of the hips and
thighs.
The skirt should be full rather than short in order to avoid showing anything
embarrassing. Layered tiers or ruffles along the bottom could be used to make
flares. You could also wear sparkling tank-style dress with the hem slightly
flared.
Raising the waistline is an alternative for women who may be heavy at the bottom, so that the whole body has coverage. A strapless or sleeveless top could be chosen along with a flared skirt. This would allow her arms to accentuate her figure to a greater extent than her hips.
A cocktail dress that draws attention to her legs would be a stylish look for a
woman who is larger on top. This can be achieved by wearing a solid color. A
cocktail dress with a short skirt would really accentuate her legs. It is easy for women to find dresses that have a hemline just above the knee.
Should they choose to focus on cleavage, these women can make their dresses more
revealing and show a bit of skin. A revealing V-cut or plunging neckline can be
very effective. To reveal more, cover less at the top. With that, the dress could be accentuated with a bubbled hemline.
Currently, it is fashionable for some women to display cleavage. It gives them a
sensuous appearance, and a number of female Hollywood celebrities have been
following this trend for some time.
Wearing a fashionable cocktail dress is more than the dress itself. Accessories
are necessary to complete a wardrobe. Earrings, bracelets, chokers, necklaces, and small handbags can aid in achieving your look. Neck jewelry may not be necessary depending on how the neckline is designed on the dress. Once you have the dress, you will be better able to choose accessories to complement it.
The addition of some simple accessories can make cocktail dresses stylish for any lady.
