T-shirt dress - a choice in favor of convenience and practicality
There are things in the wardrobe of a modern girl, the purpose of which is difficult to guess the first time. For men, our favorite skirts, skirts, dresses, overalls, etc. still remain a real mystery. Meanwhile, all these rather strange, at first glance, garments are incredibly comfortable and practical, since they can replace two or even three things at once.
In today's article, we will focus on one of the most popular "hybrids" - a T-shirt dress. We will tell you about who this thing is especially suitable for, about its varieties, as well as how to wear it and what to combine with.
Peculiarities
Even if you have never seen a T-shirt dress (which is very doubtful, because in the summertime a huge number of girls wear this outfit), you can easily imagine what kind of clothes it is, based on just one name. The tank top dress is an elongated version of a regular tank top.
A T-shirt dress is a modern modification of the same T-shirt, which was originally an element of underwear, and then migrated to sportswear. Today the T-shirt dress refers mainly to sports, beach or casual styles. It is sleeveless, has a form-fitting silhouette and a shallow cut.
Who is it suitable for?
The cut features of the T-shirt dress do not allow her to keep your true forms a secret, so this thing should be worn only by those who do not have any complexes about their own figure.
A tank top dress is usually made of jersey or other thin elastic fabric. This material, combined with a tight-fitting silhouette, emphasizes the contours of the body and does not hide imperfections. In addition, the shirt dress leaves the shoulders and arms bare.Therefore, if you consider your belly or upper body as your problem area, it is better to refuse this garment.
The T-shirt dress looks most effective on slender girls with a rectangle shape or on the owners of the most feminine shape - an "hourglass".
Knitted
"T-shirt" is one of the girls' favorite dress options for the warm season. Summer models, as a rule, are made from thin jersey - fabric that is comfortable in heat, elastic and wearable. Knitted T-shirt dresses are comfortable, but they have one unpleasant feature: the material often stretches and gathers in folds on the most problematic parts of the body. This must be taken into account when choosing a similar outfit.
Knitted T-shirt dresses can be either restrained, monochromatic, or bright, with interesting prints. Especially popular are the models in the nautical style with horizontal stripes.
Wedding
The most unusual type of T-shirt dress is, of course, a wedding one. For such cases, graceful outfits are created from noble materials, decorated with exquisite decor. They look very laconic, but at the same time original. T-shirt dresses are often chosen by brides who are planning a stylized outdoor wedding, such as on the deck of a ship or at a beach cafe.
Evening
Recently, a T-shirt dress has ceased to be exclusively informal clothing for every day. This thing, made in different styles, is increasingly common: from business to evening.
An evening T-shirt dress is, as a rule, an outfit in which the simplicity of the cut is compensated by the abundant decor. Evening models are usually embroidered with a large number of beads, sequins or rhinestones. In an elegant design, a T-shirt dress can have an unusual, rather deep cut on the chest or a slit on the skirt. A fairly common variation of this outfit is a dress with a flared or asymmetrical hem.
Length
Initially, the T-shirt dress was created short - so that it would be convenient to play sports or just actively move in it. Over time, varieties of these dresses of very different lengths began to appear.
Long
Long T-shirt dresses have appeared in the fashion world relatively recently, so they still look quite unusual. Elongated models that reach the ankles are best suited for tall, slender girls. They go well with punk paraphernalia: heavy boots, leather jacket, etc.
Midi
A mid-length T-shirt dress can be made in different styles. It is considered the most versatile option of all, as it is suitable for girls of different heights.
If you put a denim shirt or jacket over such a dress, it will be quite possible to appear in it at school. Some people wear such an outfit to work, but this still should not be done - a T-shirt dress belongs to informal clothing.
Short
A short tank top dress is usually a sporty or beachy option. It is incredibly comfortable in hot weather and also allows you to move freely. Cropped models with an unusual, deep cut on the back are often found. Mini-dresses with pleated skirts or trimmed with ruffles look flirty and funny.
What to wear with?
- Jacket or shirt. A plaid shirt, denim jacket or a thin jacket in a sporty style will be a great addition to a T-shirt dress. So, based on one thing, you can create several different images.
- Leggings or tights. If it's cool outside and you don't want to give up your favorite T-shirt dress, try combining it with bright, tight tights, leggings, skinny jeans or leggings (jeggings).
Shoes
"T-shirt" is one of the few types of dresses that does not need a heel. You can wear this thing with comfortable everyday shoes - sneakers, trainers, ballet flats and even beach slippers.Lovers of extravagant looks will surely like the combination of a T-shirt dress and boots with thick soles.
Accessories
T-shirt dress is not demanding on accessories; the main thing is to try to avoid too complicated and "elegant" things. Original jewelry (plastic, leather, wooden), sunglasses, backpacks or simple, comfortable bags, mitts, funny hats - all this goes well with this outfit.
