Various models of silk dresses
The big secret to take a dress home is to choose the ideal fit for your body and type of event. There is no point in finding a beautiful long red dress if the wedding is during the day, for example. Nor much less a super cleavage for those who are very overweight and have a flabby abdomen. Look at what is best on your body to value and the type of invitation to go shopping only after.
Short
Short dresses are indicated for less formal occasions and daytime events, especially if they are made of silk because they have a slight sheen and already give glamor to the garment. Daytime events do not ask for a dress with glitter or long dress. If the specification of the event is not black tie, you can go short at night without any problem.
The length of the dress is your leeway for formality. The more formal the event, the longer the piece should be. So, for a wedding, for example, you can eliminate the micro or mini skirt and stick with knee-length or close to it.
The simpler the stitching details or stones, the more casual the piece. The plain, short silk dress is a day piece for a day out with friends, maybe a brunch but never a wedding.
Silk dresses in blue are part of the list of colors most used in weddings and graduations. Red, baby pink, moss green and black are also in the preferences for this type of events.
Longo
Long silk dresses are suitable for formal events such as weddings, graduations, debutante parties, awards and the like. One of the main points is how long it should be. The ideal is a length that does not touch the floor to avoid accidents (stepping on the skirt of the dress with heels is more common than you think) and that today is rarely used. But if it is a super chic event, you can cover your feet or leave only the tip of the shoe in sight.
Be very careful when choosing a long silk dress because it is a more flowing piece and too much fabric can deform the body. Ideally, it should be slightly fitted at the waist but without exaggerating so as not to show too much and not be too tight.
Printed
With the discreet and elegant sheen of silk, any simple print gains a different touch. Shorts can be worn in the daytime as long as they do not have beaded appliqués or sheer seams.
Silk dresses with sleeves can be fitted or loose-fitting. Ideally, those with thin arms should stick with the looser models and those with thick arms should stick with the fitted ones so that the look is harmonious. Some fabrics can make you fat while others make you slimmer, so watch out for that.
with lace
Lace and silk: a perfect duo, right? In general, they are pieces that play with transparency and overlapping (a silk dress with a second lace dress sewn on top) with elegant results.
Collar lace or lace neckline are the preferred models as a suggestion for a party dress, whatever the color of the piece.
The lace sleeves make the dress chic and one of the fashion trends: transparency.
How to wear silk dress?
LooksCheck
it out
For many years silk was an exclusive fabric for evening wear. But the scenario has changed and as long as it has no stones and are pieces with simple cuts, it can go perfect for daytime events like a stroll through the mall, outings with friends and the best of the casual look. To make the look less social, just wear simpler pieces like a coat tied at the waist, tennis shoes and sneakers or your beloved leggings.
What shoes to wear with printed silk dresses? One color, without a lot of details (printed gladiators can be a bit on the side) and preferably with high heels to go with the delicacy of the fabric.
Silk is a sensual fabric in a way because it sits comfortably against the body. If the dress is too loose, the slightest wind will show all your curves. This may not be a desired effect and not everyone looks good in models that are too tight in this fabric. Evaluate carefully when pre-purchasing.
Search for the date and event of the evening
Putting together date night outfits depends a lot on the chosen location and how you want to show off to the suitor. A long one is nice because it doesn't show more than necessary while short ones show off your legs and make you more prepared for any kind of occasion such as a night of dancing, a night out or a dinner.
Want to add a more youthful touch to your outfit? A denim jacket is a great combination.
There is a fashionista line that is a big fan of sedel dressesthat have a watercolor print, like in the photo below. They can be hand painted (much more expensive) or industrial synthetics with a very similar charm and great for daytime wear.
for weddings
For evening weddings is worth a lot of glitter and extravagant colors like a long golden dress. For weddings after 4 pm, think of more discreet models and you can go with printed silk, but always at least with a medium heel, never flats.
