Wrap dresses
Whether it’s mini or maxi, patterned or monochrome, linen or viscose – wrap dresses are not only popular for their typical silhouette, but their versatility too. The floaty cut flatters your curves, while the tie at the waist accentuates your neckline. That’s where the name comes from: unlike other dress styles, wrap dresses doesn’t have a zip, but are wrapped around the body. This lets you adjust the fit of the dress to your liking.
Shirt dresses
As the big sister of the classic shirt, the longer dress variant is an elegant classic that never goes out of style. A straighter cut and a button placket are characteristic of the shirt dress. If you prefer a more figure-accentuating fit, pair it with a waist belt to create a stunning silhouette. The V-neckline created by the button placket visually elongates your upper body, making the shirt dress an extremely flattering choice.
Bodycon dresses
The name says it all – but wait a moment: what does bodycon actually mean? “Bodycon” is short for “body conscious”. In other words: the dresses are extremely tight and conform to the body like a second skin. If you think you need a slim figure to wear one, think again: the high elastane content subtly shapes your figure to beautifully enhance your feminine curves.
Fit and flare dresses
The top of this dress style frames your shoulders, neckline and waist with a figure-accentuating cut. Meanwhile, the skirt falls softly around your hips to gently enhance your curves. Unlike an A-line dress, a fit and flare dress is a little tighter on top – creating a flattering silhouette that lends itself to many different occasions.
Empire dresses
Refined and flattering: empire dresses stand out for their elegant look. This dress style is characterised by darts below the chest, as well as a gently flowing skirt. Whether you have feminine curves or a delicate stature – this cut flatters almost every silhouette. Empire dresses are especially popular as evening dresses, thanks to their graceful appearance.
The ideal dress length
Whether it’s floor-length or conspicuously short: the length of your dress is as variable as the cut. Do you want to accentuate your legs? Then a mini dress is the perfect choice. In a stylish midi dress, you show a little less skin without compromising on comfort. And if you are looking for a comfortable yet stylish companion for every occasion, a maxi dress is your perfect styling partner.
Great alternative to a dress
Much more than an overall: a stylish jumpsuit is every bit as elegant and stylish as a dress. The combination of the top and bottoms visually elongates your body and conjures a feminine silhouette with the oft-featured waist belt – no matter what your figure.
