It’s that time of the year again when you are inundated with invites to the most happening parties around. Inevitably, before the said parties, you stand in front of your overflowing wardrobes and declare that you have nothing to wear! We understand your dilemma and totally get it, that in this day and age of social media, your clothes are as good as that one picture on Facebook or Instagram. Hence, we bring to you a choice range of western dresses for flaunting at the upcoming parties and tell you how to wear them too!
Lace love
It’s pretty, it’s delicate, it’s sensual, and it shows off a hint of skin without exposing much. What’s there not to love about lace dresses? Choose a soft colour like a peach or a powder blue; go for bold hues such as reds or yellows; or stick to safe neutrals like whites, blacks & beiges – a lace dress in any colour is sure to grab eyeballs. Pair a girly lace number with studded pumps for a rock-chic look or ankle boots for a grungy vibe. Add a belt to break the monotony of a full lace dress, or throw on a vibrant scarf to pep things up a notch.
Bring out the LWD
Back off, ubiquitous LBD, the Little White Dress is here to hog the limelight this season. Make white your new black and stand out in a crowd of typical LBDs when you step out in your pretty white piece. Choose a cut and silhouette that complements your figure and keep it simple. A pristine white dress speaks volume by itself, so it doesn’t require too much accessorizing. Pair it with a dazzling necklace to turn heads, or wear your LWD with sassy knee-high boots that’ll keep you warm while making a statement.
Embrace asymmetry
Well-done asymmetry makes for an attractive point of interest when it comes to dresses. An exciting asymmetrical silhouette creates an outfit that’s one-of-a-kind and fun! Go for dresses with asymmetric necklines and wear them with chic shoes and statement ear-cuffs. You can also opt for flowy dresses with asymmetric hemlines, accessorized with strappy heels and cocktail rings. Make sure the rest of the outfit is simple, as too much happening all around will take the focus away from that one interesting detail.
Make ‘maxi’-mum impact
Thought parties call for mini dresses only? Think again! Why not turn heads at the next party by flaunting a stylish maxi dress? Maxi dresses are gorgeous, suit all body types and are perfectly comfortable for dancing the night away in. Choose a straight cut for a classy, elongated look that can be worn with a messy bun and nice danglers. If you are a boho lover, then sport a flowy maxi dress with multiple layers of long necklaces and a pretty headband. What’s more, with maxi dresses falling till the floor, people won’t really notice if you ditch those killer heels for a comfy pair of flats too! How’s that for a cheat-code to having a gala dance time?
So, don’t despair, just try out these new looks at the various parties and get ready to be inundated with compliments! You can thank us later!
