The Occasion
Think of the special occasion.
Is it a wedding, birthday bash, Sweet Sixteen, anniversary or graduation? What do you want your dress
to do for you? When choosing between special occasion dresses, you need to think about the event to which
you are going. Do you want to look professional and put-together or do you want to look fun and flirty?
Shape of the Dress
Choose a dress that fits your body perfectly.
Not all cuts will flatter your body so it’s always important for you to keep in mind what cuts make you
look and feel amazing. Not only should the dress look good, it should also be comfortable and enable
you to move around in it. Here are some quick tips: If you have a pear-shaped body, you may want to go
with a dress that is form-fitting on the top and loose fitting on the bottom. If you have an hourglass
shape, you may want to highlight your curves with a form-fitted frock. If you love your legs, you may
want to go with a short dress, and if you like your arms, you may want to go with a longer dress that
is sleeveless.
The Design of the Dress
Let’s think about sleeves
and straps. The straps of the dress will affect everything from the frock's shape to its neckline. Thus,
you need to think about whether or not you want to show your arms and back and how much of each you want
to show. A perfect special occasion dress should highlight all your assets and downplay any problem areas.
Neckline
Do not underestimate your neckline dear. Showcasing
your neckline can change the entire look. Think v neck, strapless, cowl neck, sweetheart neckline, strapless,
one shoulder, spaghetti strap to make the most of your demure neckline.
Length
of the Dress
Do you want to go long or short? Do you want to highlight your legs?
Perhaps your back? If you opt for a long and flowing dress, make sure that you’re able to walk in it.
Make sure that it is not constricting on the bottom. If your special occasion is a wedding, opt for a
shorter hemline as it allows for an entire night of dancing. Pair your dress with the perfect accessories
and you can’t go wrong. If you want the best of both worlds, you a hi-lo dress is the perfect option.
Materials
What fabric do you want your dress to be made out
of? Keep in mind the weather during the special occasion. Will it be warm weather in which polyester
might be a little too stuffy for? Keep your body in mind as well. It’s key to know what fabrics work
best with your body type. Think back on what fabrics you tend to stray away from and which ones you flock
to when you’re shopping for a dress.
