Clever Geometric Patterning On Shift Style Dresses

By:


Clever geometric patterning in black and shades of grey can take inches off your waist line! The optical illusion caused by the clever placement of zigzag side panels from the bust down to the hips, along with skilful positioning of darts when the dress was made, is an effective and eye catching looking which turns a simple shift style dress into a simply stunning outfit.

Using geometric patterns is a great way to add interest to a shift style dress which is suitable for work, lunch engagements or evening wear depending on the accessories and footwear you opt for.

Wear fashionable gladiator style sandals for a very chic smart casual look or wear high heels to ooze sophisticated elegance.

Horizontal lines can make you appear much wider than you actually are if you are not careful in the style of top, skirt or dress you choose. Opt for styles which flatter the figure and hug in all the right places! If you wear big and baggy that's how you will look!

Choose horizontal tops with a nautical theme for a trendy look. Navy coloured tailored crop trousers with a cute horizontal navy and white striped top is a great smart casual look which looks chic on women of all ages. Team with big black sunglasses and flat ballerina style pumps for a sassy look. Inspiration from Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's is a style trend which has stood the test of time and can look as chic today as it did all those years ago. Inject a modern twist by wearing wide bangles as the only accessory.

Striped tops also look good when worn with trousers, especially the latest wide leg tailored styles in white or navy. You do have to be careful when re-creating a nautical theme otherwise you may end up looking like Hyacinth Bouquet! With this style less is definitely more and although blazers with brass buttons may be quintessentially nautical they can be very dating!

Blazers are on of those styles which is still considered trendy by some designers whilst others are steering well clear of them! Boyfriend blazers can look very sassy when worn with the sleeves pushed up, jeans a white tee shirt and flat pumps and is style which continues to be worn by many celebrities this season.

Women who wear plus size clothing should embrace the nautical theme as a chic smart yet elegant look which suits their size as long as the clothes fit and flatter rather than accentuate their size.
