Vest dress
Vest dress
Summer time always evokes thoughts of the sea, so the fashion for a striped print, which is a classic for the uniform of sailors, has not dried up for several seasons in a row. But if earlier T-shirts, T-shirts, turtlenecks and blue-and-white striped tops were popular, now there is a special demand for dresses with such a pattern.
Pretty minis, more like tunic sweaters, feminine knee-length dresses, practical and comfortable midi outfits and elegant floor-length dresses - this season, stylish stripes can be found on any of these outfits. The young ladies just have to deal with fashion trends and learn how to choose the right vest dresses.
Peculiarities
The main feature of the vest print is that it can be varied and even if in an instant all women decide to wear dresses in a marine style, they will not ripple in their eyes. Yes, alternating blue and white stripes are always basic, but the size of these very stripes and their shade can change somewhat, changing the look of the outfit. There may be models of dresses, where even the placement of the stripes themselves is somewhat different from the standard, located diagonally.
As for the material from which dresses and other outfits are made - vests, this is predominantly cotton dense knitwear, as it was half a century ago. It is the soft and supple fabric that makes the vest dress as comfortable to wear and practical as possible.
Who is suitable and how to choose
There is only one taboo on the marine print - it is contraindicated for women who are too overweight. For the rest of the ladies, even if they are a little dense, the strip is acceptable, the main thing is to choose the right width.
There are several win-win rules for choosing a dress - a vest:
- Women who have magnificent forms, it is better to choose dresses with stripes of medium width (from 3 to 5 cm). As a last resort, you can choose an outfit with vertical stripes or placed diagonally. It is better to choose a straight cut and it is desirable that the dress be of medium length.
- Girls of a fragile physique can afford thin striped dresses. There are also options for dresses with too wide stripes, which will also be appropriate only for thin ladies.
- It is better for tall girls to choose shortened models, and for petite girls to wear dresses - floor-length vests, because they visually stretch the silhouette.
A combination of a vest dress and an unbuttoned elongated jacket, as well as elongated jewelry options, will help to make the figure slimmer. It is also worth remembering that stripes of a darker shade will look better on a curvaceous figure. For thin girls, any print options are available.
Fashion trends
This season, the designers decided to slightly diversify the classic version of the marine pattern and radically change its shade.Now you can find dresses on which a white strip alternates with raspberry, light green, black, blue, brown and orange. But some interesting modifications also touched on the cut of dresses - vests.
With a slit
Elegant side slits complement the usually elongated styles of dresses that are not flared. The incision can be quite small or reach the middle of the thigh, but it allows not only to increase walking comfort, but also to visually stretch the silhouette.
Polo
Short dresses - vests of a strict cut are now complemented with a feminine polo in the form of a flared short skirt. It is sewn to the hem of a striped outfit and can be of a single color or merge with the general background. Such models of dresses are chosen exclusively by young miniature girls.
Striped
The strip, as an integral attribute of the vest, can also be different. There are models of dresses where several options for stripes of different widths are combined at once. The strip can be located both horizontally and vertically, and this move is often used by designers in order to help girls visually hide some of the flaws in the silhouette. So, narrow shoulders and fairly wide hips can be made more proportional if you choose a dress where the skirt is decorated with a vertical stripe and the top is horizontal.
Popular styles and models
Regarding fashionable styles with a strip, we can say that classic sheath dresses are becoming especially popular, which are often complemented by a thin leather strap. Tight-fitting vest dresses with lace hem and patch pockets are chosen both for everyday look and for special occasions with the family.
For evening looks, they prefer to choose tight floor-length dresses in black and white colors. Solemn vests often have an elegant cutout on the back and slits on the sides. For an everyday look, you can choose cropped models with a flared skirt, and tight styles of medium length, and models to the floor, but the most important thing is to be able to harmoniously complement the image.
What to wear
Dresses - vests can be called universal in terms of the fact that they are ideally combined with almost all things. In windy weather, you can throw a denim, leather jacket or long sleeve sweater over the dress and look stylish.
Shoes can be chosen as a sports type, giving preference to sneakers, sneakers, or boots, and classic in the form of pumps. Sandals and ballet shoes at low speed will perfectly fit into the summer marine look. A popular phenomenon for a colder period is to wear a vest dress under high boots in black or brown.
Stylish images
A fashionable silk scarf with a striped or checkered print and a matching clutch will help to make the look truly stylish. You can pick up an elegant handbag for a dress, a stylish shoulder bag, a shapeless beach model, and a bag bag.
A sporty look can be complemented with a cap made of cotton or denim, and for a romantic look, it is better to choose a miniature hat. You can continue the marine theme with decorations in the form of anchors, starfish, shells, fish and so on.
If you choose a dress model - vests with leather inserts, a bag, jewelry and shoes made of the same material will fit well into the image.
