In what way will a woman always look win-win and make passers-by turn around after her? Of course, if she relied on a feminine, delicate, sophisticated style. In particular, elegant one-shoulder dresses emphasize ladies' beauty. They have a certain zest, which gives the image of mystery and charm.
Asymmetry boom
The last few years, asymmetry in outfits has not lost its popularity. This applies not only to skirts, tunics, but also dresses. According to the male half of the population, one-shoulder dresses look sexy on women, and therefore attractive. Many celebrities have already flaunted on the red carpet in a similar outfit, attracting the eyes of the public and the paparazzi photo lenses.
The most fashionable trend are outfits with flounces, ruffles and various draperies. All these elements can decorate the dress and bring tenderness and lightness to the overall bow. It is noteworthy that such models are suitable for almost everyone, regardless of the type of figure,build and age. Absolutely every lady is able to choose the right option for herself.
Variety of patterns
Modern designers have created and continue to create an incredible variety of styles and models of asymmetric dresses, among which one of the first places on the podium is occupied by one-shoulder dresses. These are tight-fitting short models and loose to the floor, medium length and below the knee. In addition, the dress may have one sleeve, the length of which also varies from shortened to long. A style with one long sleeve is considered a special fashion statement, the cut of which is made differently by fashion designers: there is a flashlight sleeve, a wing sleeve, a flounced sleeve, decorated with embroidery, frills, rhinestones, prints, etc.
Models are also being developed in which, in addition to one sleeve, there are asymmetric skirts, folds, and layering. In the past and current seasons, styles of dresses appeared on the catwalk, in which instead of the missing sleeve they placed a wide shoulder strap or only the bottom of the sleeve, which looks quite original.
What fabrics are used to create models for one shoulder? Light, flying materials (chiffon, silk, lace) and denser fabrics (brocade, knitwear, satin) are suitable here.
How to choose the right one
The choice must be made based on the type of figure and height. For a wedding celebration, anniversary, any ceremony, prom, long dresses with one shoulder are perfect. For full ladies, it is better to choose a mid-length cocktail dress with a high waist orlooser in the Empire style, made of dense material, since soft fabric can only emphasize all imperfections.
Graceful and slender girls will suit both long and short options. The latter will “emphasize” beautiful legs. If a woman has broad shoulders, then you need to carefully select such an outfit, as it draws attention to bare shoulders.
Another aspect when choosing clothes is the color of the skin. A dress with one sleeve in black will contrast with white skin and emphasize femininity. Swarthy ladies can wear a dress of rich blue, green and red shades. It is these color trends that are observed in the designer collections of the current year.
Who should refuse such a dress? First of all, it will not suit girls with large breasts, which will simply lose their shape without support and will look a little vulgar. Here, an option with a wide strap on a bare shoulder is suitable. Also, ladies with very full arms should not be worn, which will be too visible with bare shoulders.
Where to wear
Summer off-the-shoulder dress in a simple design can be used for daily wear. In this case, natural fabrics, calm colors or an unobtrusive print are suitable.
One-shoulder cocktail dress with a ruffle will fit perfectly at a cocktail or corporate party. It can be midi length or floor length. And for graduates, such a dress, in contrast to the magnificent one, will give the opportunitydance the night away and look fresh and trendy.
Long models of evening dresses with an open shoulder are purchased for special occasions and ceremonies. So, bridesmaids often choose a summer dress in bright colors, for example, coral, pink. Also in this case, powdery, lavender, etc. will do.
Stars of the world of show business often turn to one-shoulder dresses for going out, in particular, for the presentation of a prestigious award, premiere, etc.
What to combine with
As for shoes, it is better to choose shoes or sandals with high heels, open type. For example, a one-shoulder dress with a sleeve will look great with shoes, and summer models of dresses are successfully combined with sophisticated sandals. From accessories you can take a clutch and oversized earrings. Sometimes the right bracelet fits into the image.
Since the emphasis in the outfit is on the bare shoulder, which in itself is a "decorative element", you should not overload the image. If you buy a dress with frills, then let them be a little.
