We select a dress for an anniversary

Choosing a beautiful and fashionable dress for an anniversary is a difficult task, but it can be solved. The main thing is to take into account your parameters, your style and not panic. And then a good mood along with a great outfit are guaranteed, regardless of whether you are a hero of the day or a guest.

In the current season, the trend remains pleated dresses and skirts. Now they can be embroidered with sequins, covered with gold and silver plating, which means they look even more spectacular and will be an excellent choice for an anniversary. Sequins of various sizes remain in trend - from small to very large. But rhinestones are out of fashion, it is better to avoid them.

The A-line is still in trend, sometimes a wide frill runs along the bottom of such a flared dress, making the model even more flared. Such products look good both with flat shoes (sneakers, ballet shoes) and with pumps.

Very much in demand and popular styles in retro or vintage style. The emphasized femininity of the dresses is liked by everyone - both at the age of 25 and at 50. The most daring can combine such outfits with retro-styling in the style of the 1940s and scarlet lipstick - it looks very impressive.

Both draperies and bows remain in fashion.... Moreover, both of them can be located on any part of the dress - collar, waist, back, hem. This detail immediately makes the product festive, unusual and attractive.

Flounces, ruffles and ruffles remain relevant... The latter look especially gentle and elegant in combination with linen style and cutwork embroidery, which is also at the height of fashion now. Flounces can decorate both the bottom of the dress and be located on the shoulder line.

Remains in fashion asymmetrical fit - uneven hem, oblique cut, products with one sleeve. Among the most "fresh" trends, we can mention dresses and jackets, "assembled" from two different in color, style and texture of products. It takes a fair amount of courage to wear this, but the result is worth it.

In the spring and especially in the fall, it is worth buying an outfit in a shade of aged, antique gold. It can be a blouse with a scarf collar, a dress made of flowing knitwear or a pleated skirt - any thing in this color will look great at a holiday.

Dresses and blouses with huge stylized white "school" collars - another "fresh" trend. Like anything fashionable, it can quickly become outdated, so if you like the model, you should wear it right now.

The floral print remains relevant, slightly changing: it can be abstract watercolor roses and peonies or small bouquets of lavender. They are applied to silk, cotton, viscose and knitwear. The floral pattern is ideal for dresses in vintage, retro style, for summer and autumn models.

Velvet now it is used for sewing not straight, but fluffy and flying skirts. Modern velvet often has a knitted base, so products made from it stretch. This makes it possible to drape the fabric in different ways when sewing products from it. A velvet dress always looks very impressive, drawing eyes to its owner.

For demi-season elegant dresses, they are often used thin jersey, viscose lining, dense satin. Viscose and silk outfits can be worn in autumn and spring, complemented with boots to match and a cardigan or jacket.

Cotton, linen, silk, muslin remain the most popular summer fabrics. They perfectly regulate heat transfer, they are natural, they are available in all imaginable and unimaginable shades and with any prints, they are suitable for any style of dress, they drape perfectly, emphasize advantages and hide flaws - in general, they are universal!

Chiffon - Another summer fabric from which open dresses, and layered skirts or overalls, and airy tops are obtained. Any product made from this material looks elegant and festive.

As a general rule, the younger a girl chooses a dress, the shorter it can be.... In the opposite direction, the rule also applies - the older, the less desirable a mini. Even if your figure permits, it is better to stop at the maximum allowable length to the middle of the knee. This will provide an opportunity to showcase slender ankles and narrow knees.

Ankle-length or oversized outfit can be uncomfortable if you are planning an active, mobile party.... It can be tricky to dance and play with tangled in a long hemline, so if you want to be active in all the contests, consider a more comfortable dress. But on a picnic or in a cafe, such an outfit will look quite appropriate, especially in combination with semi-sports shoes.

However, if an event is planned in evening dresses, you will have to take care of a suitable outfit. An evening dress does not provide for any other style, except for a floor-length model, so it will not work to replace it with a cocktail dress.

The optimal length for a dress, appropriate everywhere: and at a picnic, and in a cafe, and in a restaurant, and in karaoke, and at a master class. Midi length is by far the most popular for both casual and festive outfits. This is quite understandable:

• such dresses are comfortable
• it is the midi that successfully masks most of the flaws in the figure - from an imperfect abdomen to wide hips and full arms.

Besides, the middle length of the skirt goes well with boots, shoes, and sandals, which makes it versatile for all seasons. Elongated dresses look very elegant, especially since the retro style of the 1940-50s is very popular both among girls under 30 and older women.

Mini skirts are undoubtedly spectacular regardless of the season. However, a radically short length is not shown to all women - both in complexion and in age. After 30-35 years, the maximum mini that a lady can afford is on the palm above the knee, and this is provided that the figure allows it. After 40 years, it is undesirable to wear short skirts.

When choosing a cropped dress, you should remember that the top should be as closed as possible. Therefore, if you want a deep neckline, then the skirt will have to be worn longer.

Fashionable now styles in mini length are 1960s style A-line dresses. Overly fitted models are no longer in trend, as is the babydoll style (which goes to very young girls under 20, and no one else). Straight or slightly flared styles are preferable, sleeves are also highly desirable - three-quarters or wrist length.

The market of fabrics and ready-made dresses offers the consumer products of all colors and shades from boiling white to graphite. An anniversary outfit can also be of absolutely any color. - it all depends on the taste and style of the woman who will wear it. In summer, pastel colors are in demand: lavender, pink, cornflower blue, milky. Flounces, ruffles, flying models plus caramel colors - a wonderful symbiosis for a summer dress of a 20-year-old girl or a 30-year-old woman.

In autumn - wine, marsala, ocher, emerald, chocolate. Warm dresses and skirts made of fabrics in autumn colors look sophisticated and sophisticated.

In winter everyone wants shine, because there is not enough sunlight. Gold and silver, sparkles and sequins, red and green are used. However, the abundance of glitz is best left for the New Year's party, where by definition there can be nothing superfluous.

Spring - the time of yellow, coral, pistachio, blue. Fluffy skirts and trouser suits made from fabrics of these shades look fresh and unusual in spring.

Black dress Is a classic of women's style. It is appropriate to wear it on an anniversary, but in order not to look too gloomy, you need to complement the bow with bright accessories - shoes, a scarf, ornaments.

Choosing a festive outfit, several categories should be followed: appropriateness, convenience and taking into account personal parameters - figure, age, style.

The appropriateness of the outfit means that it is chosen taking into account the specifics of the event and its location. For example, if it is decided to celebrate the anniversary with a trip to nature with barbecue and a fire, then you should not wear high-heeled shoes and a short skirt. It will be both inconvenient and unsafe - many surprises lie in wait in the grass, from nettles to ants and ticks.

If it is supposed bachelorette party picnic in dresses, and all guests of the event have been notified in advance, it will be very rude to ignore the request of the hero of the day and come in trousers. As a rule, a photographer is invited to such holidays, so it is better not to spoil the mood of either the birthday girl or yourself.

The chosen outfit must necessarily be comfortable for its owner, that is, it must be exactly in size and fit perfectly. Ready-made dresses and suits are sewn on a standard figure, but if a woman is not the owner of one, for example, she is short, or there is a difference in size or more between the “top” and “bottom”, any ready-made clothes will have to be customized in the atelier. In some shops this service is offered directly on the spot, in most outlets there is no such service. However, in any city there is an atelier, and, turning there, as a result, a woman receives a product that fits perfectly to her figure - a dress or a suit.

Even if a lady is unhappy with her clothing size, buying a smaller dress will not help. On the contrary, the thing will emphasize and cover everything that I would like to hide. Therefore, you should always choose clothes of your size.

Age - a serious indicator for the selection of a toilet. At 35 years old, a dress embroidered with sequins is acceptable, and a 40-year-old lady should limit herself only to a skirt if she wants exactly sequins.

Short skirts should definitely be left young. A 45 or 55 year old woman in a desperate mini is unlikely to look good, but who wants to look bad at a birthday party? The same applies to the deep cutouts on the chest and back, as well as the slits on the skirt. All these details should be used with great care and not make their owner an object of ridicule.

Noble age - 60, 65, 70 years old, which will suit the same refined and elegant outfits without excessive extravagance and outrageousness. Straight dresses made of fabrics that hold their shape well can be complemented with a jacket or cardigan made of the same fabric. It is better to choose shoes either in flesh color, or (as Queen Elizabeth II does) to match the outfit. Jewelry shouldn't be small. A scarf is a great addition to the look.

Shape type - a parameter that cannot be ignored when choosing any outfit, be it everyday or festive. Overweight women are unlikely to be comfortable in tight-fitting dresses or trousers; it is better to choose a semi-fitted cut that will hide figure flaws. Fabrics are suitable for flowing, but at the same time retaining their shape, medium density knitwear is ideal. You should be careful with velvet - it visually adds volume to the figure, so even if you have light or medium fullness, it is better to stay on something else.

Overalls made of jersey will go for full ladies, but the fabric should not be too thin. Thin fabric is good for layered outfits, such as chiffon or silk flared trousers, a mid-thigh top or tunic, and a long cardigan made of the same material. If you add shoes with a similar shade with heels (even if they are not high), you can visually stretch the figure, giving it harmony.

With any type of figure, clothing should strive to balance the shoulders and hips, that is, visually give them the same width... This can be done using color, for example, for narrow shoulders and wide hips, use a color block: make the top of the outfit light or bright, the bottom dark. It can be a shirt and skirt or a color-block dress. If, on the contrary, the shoulders are wide, then you need to go from the opposite - darken the top of the figure, highlighting the bottom.

Same way it is necessary to balance the proportions of the figure... For example, with long legs and a short torso, you should not emphasize the waist too much - visually, this will shorten the body even more. If the legs are short and the body is too long, tight-fitting outfits should be avoided. To make the figure more proportional, the waist will have to be visually raised, and dresses with an inflated line and a fluffy skirt will help with this.

Now let's look at the successful options for elegant "anniversary" dresses:

• an ensemble with a black dress looks not boring at all;

• an outfit that will be appropriate for any holiday;

• a long dress with a print is another trend;

• "Gold" skirt and white shirt - very stylish;

• the original combination of red and blue attracts attention.
