Dressing gown - absolute comfort
Most women associate bathrobes with cleaning and cooking, and not with a romantic and fashionable dress. However, there is a robe that is both beautiful and comfortable.
Peculiarities
The style of the dress-robe is very simple. The product is distinguished by a loose bodice and a flared skirt, as well as the presence of a wrap and a belt. Different versions of such a dress differ in length, the presence of a collar, the type of neckline, the presence of sleeves and other details.
There are no restrictions on color variations of the dress-robe. You can see both solid-colored outfits and products with floral, pea, geometric or abstract prints. In addition, the robe can be trimmed with lace, ruffles or ruffles.
Who is it suitable for?
This style of dresses can be called universal, as it will suit girls with different shapes and for different occasions. In such an outfit, you can feel comfortable at home, at a celebration, and in the office.
A dressing gown will look perfect on absolutely any figure, successfully hiding possible flaws and emphasizing the pros. If a girl is thin or her figure is similar to a rectangle, in a dress-gown she will look more feminine. This style looks especially attractive on the hourglass figure, since in it the curves of the chest-waist-hips will be outlined very well.
A bit of history
Outfits combining a robe and a wrap dress appeared in women's wardrobe in the 70s of the twentieth century thanks to the fashion designer Diana von Fürstenberg.
They became very popular with women of fashion, as these dresses were both elegant and very comfortable to use.Models "dress-robe" fit well on the figure and could be worn both at home and at work or for a walk.
Styles and models
With smell
Note that the classic version of the dressing gown is represented precisely by models with a smell. The scent in such outfits crosses the silhouette diagonally, after which the side parts of the product are connected at the waist with a belt. There are also models in which the smell does not pass diagonally, but vertically. In addition, there are dresses with a fake smell.
The length of the models of such a dress-robe ranges from maxi to ultramini. Summer versions of such an outfit are sewn from flowing light fabric, and knitwear is usually used to make models for autumn and winter.
Home option
Home models of this style are not only comfortable, but also very attractive. When buying a home dressing gown, they often choose bright colors, for example, striped, large flowers or polka dots. They are often worn with a belt of contrasting color.
Button-down
Such models of dress-gowns are very practical and relate to the casual style. This dress has trick pockets, which makes it look like a safari dress. Most often, a dress-gown with buttons is sewn from thick fabrics and worn in the autumn. Such models from jeans are very attractive, which are worn with a hat and a scarf. Tight dresses with long sleeves made of knitwear also look interesting.
Long Dresses
A floor-length robe can be used as a cocktail outfit, especially if there is a V-like neckline at the top of such a dress, and its long skirt has a flared cut. This model is complemented with a wide belt, clutch and massive jewelry.
Fabrics
At the time of the appearance of this style, dressing gowns were sewn from jersey, since this material was very practical. Today you can see casual dresses of this type made of cotton, viscose, denim, wool, calico or chintz. Elegant dressing gowns are sewn from brocade, velvet or velor, as well as from silk and guipure.
What models are suitable for overweight?
On girls with curvaceous shapes, a dressing gown looks very harmonious. In a model with a length slightly below the knees, you can hide both wide hips and problems with extra centimeters on the stomach. If a woman has an "apple" figure, using a dress-gown, you can visually create a waist, which will make the silhouette more slender.
As for the colors, overweight girls should take a closer look at solid-colored dressing gowns, as well as models with a vertical print arrangement.
What to wear with?
- A jacket or a small neckerchief can be worn with a robe.
- Choosing jewelry for a dress of this style, you need to take into account the decoration of the outfit. The more modest the dress-robe, the less jewelry you need to wear with it. Sometimes just a bracelet and a small handbag are enough.
- If the robe has no sleeves or has straps, wear long beads and long earrings with it. Wear short beads for your home model of such a dress.
- Any shoes or sandals are suitable for a dress-robe. This style goes well with flat-soled shoes and heels of different heights.
- The belt of such a dress can be complemented with a contrasting ribbon.
