Purple Evening Dresses

Not so long ago, it was believed that purple is only to the liking of creative people or those who have mental problems. But now clothes in purple tones have firmly entered the wardrobes of women of different ages. Such clothes are preferred by romantic people who have excellent intuition. Unlike classic black outfits, purple looks mysterious, bold and playful. In such dresses, a woman looks elegant and seductive.

You will be irresistible in a purple evening dress. This noble color looks great on women of any age and, in the presence of a deep dark shade, visually makes the figure more slender.

Fears about buying a dress in purple are usually associated with a lack of understanding of what to wear it with. The choice of a suitable outfit and accessories for it can be confusing, if you do not know what purple dresses are, what other colors can be diluted with purple, and also how to successfully complement the image.

When choosing a purple dress, remember these nuances:

• Don't wear purple entirely.
• The lighter your skin and hair, the darker and richer the purple tone should be.
• The darker the tone of your skin and hair, the brighter you can choose a shade of purple.
• Purple has the ability to slim.

When choosing "your" purple shade, consider the color of your hair. If it is copper, chestnut or reddish, and your eyes are gray-green or greenish-brown, then plum and shades approaching red (purple-red or violet-red) are the best choices among purple tones.

For hot brown-eyed brunettes, dark purples, such as indigo or blueberries, are best. A rich and bright purple tone is also ideal for such girls.

For fair-haired girls with fair skin and gray eyes (as well as gray-blue and gray-green), we recommend a light gray-purple shade, as well as violet and lavender evening dress.

Successful combinations of purple tones can be called combinations with:

1. Brown. This duet is very warm and inviting. Brown can be represented by both dark tones (for example, chocolate) and lighter shades (for example, sandy). You can complement purple with brown in any variation and proportion.
2. White. This combination looks fresh, unusual and spring-like. Other neutral colors that work well with purple tones include gray, beige and black.
3. Green. This combination is stylish, romantic and warm. Choose bright purple, and let green be rich (light green, turquoise, emerald) or muted (bottle, khaki, pistachio).
4. Yellow. A very bright and extraordinary combination that is liked by people striving for individuality. However, keep in mind that yellow is preferable in small quantities, for example, wear a bright purple dress with a yellow scarf or yellow brooch.

The combination of purple with neutral colors - black, gray, white and beige will be a win-win. But other "deep" colors will do as well. Try and experiment.

A dark shade of purple looks restrained and strict. In addition, dark purple tones emphasize spirituality.

Such rich shades as eggplant or plum can be called royal. They are ideally combined with black, white, gray and classic blue colors.

You can also add golden, bright green, hot pink, emerald, coral, dark lemon, raspberry and orange tones to a rich purple.

You should not allow a combination of a dark purple outfit with a print of a different color (except for black and white). It's great if you add only one neutral or bright tone to this version of purple.

Light, delicate violet shades are designed to emphasize sensuality. They are presented in light translucent shades of lilac and violet, therefore they are associated with warmth and spring. Silver, peach, white, cream, beige, pink, lemon, milky, light gray and light green shades will be a good addition to these tones.

Since purple is a very prominent and vibrant color, accessories should be neutral. If you add bright colors to it, then taking into account their similarity, therefore, among the most successful shades of accessories for purple outfits, we can name all the tones of purple.

For contrast, go for red, bright orange or yellow accessories. It's important not to overload your look by adding a few non-purple hues.

Black and neutral-toned accessories go well with any version of a purple evening dress.

Pumps work well with purple dresses. If you pick up shoes in purple, decorated with metal fittings, you get a very elegant look.

For warm weather, the boats can be beige, and for cool weather - black. An interesting and extravagant choice of boats for a purple outfit is shoes with a leopard, snake or tiger print.Such bright options for boats as emerald, lemon or crimson patent shoes also look very advantageous. The variety of models is represented by the presence of a platform, straps, different shapes and heights of heels, open toes, and so on.

For a glamorous party, we recommend complementing a purple dress with a golden jacket. A short lilac cocktail dress will look beautiful with a black leather jacket. For a delicate and sensual look, pair a lilac dress and yellow shoes. You can also diversify the image with small splashes of pink and orange, for example, take an orange handbag to a purple dress.

A chiffon purple dress with a short skirt is a good option for elegant outings and for everyday use. You can wear silver sandals with straps or pumps with rivets to it. A shiny clutch and a graceful necklace will help complement the bright look.

The perfect choice for a date or a restaurant event would be a purple lace dress. We recommend wearing beige pumps and grabbing a black clutch. The purple dress is very impressively decorated with a black belt. It should be complemented with black shoes and a black handbag.

An elegant long dress in purple can also be worn with a thin belt and sandals decorated with metal fittings. A clutch bag for such an outfit can be trimmed with pearls. Also, purple maxi dresses are successfully complemented by beige platform sandals and a chocolate-colored handbag.

To create a bold and memorable look, match your purple evening dress with fuchsia sandals and a yellow rectangular clutch.

Makeup for an outfit such as a purple dress should be natural and very beautiful.

A purple palette is a good choice for your eyeshadow. But be careful: mishandling will make your eyes look tired.

For fair-haired beauties, lipstick can be chosen bright red, and for swarthy girls with light eyes - golden-orange.

An excellent choice would be to have a manicure in the same range as your dress. You can also use shades close in the spectrum - green, blue and cyan. For a manicure that complements the image in purple, drawings on the nails are also permissible. For example, you can paint your nails with bright purple polish and draw white lace lines.
