Not exact matches
Now, for the past six years, I have had seven dresses that I always wear for formal events (black - tie, weddings): (1) a long sleeved, high - necked, knee length black lace dress by Lover, whose darts I removed entirely so that it falls straight from my shoulders
to hips
to knees in a very loose, comfortable cut (no need
to pull any waists in, and I can eat as much as I like) that I made an underskirt for, so it can also be calf length (2) an ivory version of the same above, with the optional lace underskirt (3) an amazingly intricate ivory
leather macrame flapper dress uner which I wear a dark brown long, stretch singlet dress (so comfortable again)(4) a vermillion small V -
neck, long bell sleeved, straight cut, long, widens - at - the -(just above ankle) hemline dress I sewed in the most gorgeous lace for twenty dollars (5) a burgundy lace version of the vermillion lace dress in (4)-- for the same price (6) a knee length, Romance Was Born silk shift three sizes
up so it sits away from the waist — again — its all about «a'll the better
to eat dinner with, my dear», in a huge, wild sunflower graphic print before graphic prints were trendy: it's giant sunflowers against an intense turquoise background (7) a calf length caftan cut dress that I made from Japanese printed silk my mother had bought and kept for sixty years (it's just a giant square with a hole fro my
neck and two for my arms, and has the best drape EVER owing
to its being silk)
For this outfit, I decided
to go with a solid knit, crew
neck sweater and
to dress it
up I paired it with a faux
leather skirt.
* Wear wide or straight leg jeans / trousers * Add a thin polo
neck under the dress * I would avoid layering a bodycon dress * Throw on a blazer and belt it all
up at the waist * Oversized long jumpers look great with dresses * Don't be scared
to mix prints like florals with checks * Stick
to black layers (like me) for a safer option * Introduce textures:
leather, denim, knits
