For the first time, a dress with a wrap saw the light at the beginning of the last century. But it finally won hearts all over the world only in the 70s. Since then, this cut has not left the fashion catwalks. In the 2019 season, such models are especially popular: femininity and convenience are in fashion. This means that every girl must skillfully select the right clothes by color, style.

Characteristics
At the beginning of the last century, the model looked as simple as possible: medium length, a small neckline in the spirit of the times. And for several decades, the style has undergone many changes.
Today, a classic wraparound outfit looks like this:
- a slightly flared skirt covers the knees;
- a deep neckline focuses on the neckline;
- the ¾ sleeve hides the arms and shows the wrists.
But if you look closely at the collections of stores and couturiers, you can see several modified silhouettes.
The location of the smell changes (not only on the side, but also right in the center), the place where the cut is attached to the bodice (sometimes the smell decorates the top, and sometimes only opens the legs). Sewing of sleeves, skirts and general cut vary.
In order not to get confused in the variety of clothes in the store, you should clearly know your two features - the type of figure and the color type.
Does it really suit everyone
Stylists unanimously say that this style suits absolutely all women:
- A successful cut turns any figure into a standard of female beauty - an hourglass.
- The skirt will smooth out figure flaws. The outfit is shown both for owners of wide shoulders and lush hips.
- A belt at the waist will make it visually thinner, sleeker and more attractive.
- V neckline lengthens the neck.
When choosing a suitable model, it is worth considering the type of figure. To recognize it, it is enough to visually assess the shoulders and hips: are they equal or is some part of the body noticeably larger?
Then look at the waist - is it pronounced enough?
To make it easier to make a choice, you can use a useful cheat sheet.
| Inverted triangle | V-neck, interesting trim of the skirt - decor, patch pockets, asymmetrical cut |
| Pear | Half-sun skirt, thin straps and a minimum of details at the bottom of the garment |
| Apple | V-neck, slightly flared skirt |
| Rectangle | A bright accent on the waist - a wide belt or contrasting dark inserts |
| Hourglass | All models go |
Some examples:
Length for every taste
Since the style is appropriate both during the day and in the evening, both in summer and in winter, many models are presented in stores - from the shortest to feminine options to the floor:
- Short above the knee products are usually chosen for a hot summer or for a cocktail party. The advantage is obvious - you can emphasize slender legs. There is also a drawback - it is more difficult to choose accessories so that the whole image does not look out of place.
- Maxi - the most feminine option. But also the most impractical, because the only purpose of such clothes is an evening event. However, the smell, or high cut, makes the outfit spicy and interesting.
- Average length just below the knees - a classic that will never go out of style. It can be worn to work, school or for a walk. And combine with both a hairpin and a flat run.
Feel free to experiment with length!
Today, even a long dress can be added to your everyday wardrobe. Or wear a mini in the cold season.Interesting combinations decide everything.
Silk, cotton or leather
Light, flying fabrics - silk and satin - have become an absolute favorite among fashion couturiers. It is these materials that adorn the catwalks and shows.
However, denim denim is rapidly gaining popularity: this fabric conquered girls with its ease of care, always with an appropriate appearance.
The choice of fabric directly depends on the event to which the outfit will be worn. At work, on a date, and at a formal party, completely different materials are appropriate.
It is an unforgivable mistake to think that wraparound clothes are only suitable for summer. For the cold season, you can choose the same silhouettes, but from denim, linen, raincoat fabric. They keep their shape perfectly and keep warm. And they easily fit into a casual wardrobe.
A couple more options from which you can sew a beautiful dress:
- velvet, satin, corduroy or lace - for celebration and celebration;
- practical polyester, viscose, chintz - for every day;
- wool and high-quality, dense knitwear - for work or study;
- satin, viscose, silk - for a romantic date.
Perfect color this season
All girls know that even the most fashionable clothes can be ruined by bad colors or inappropriate prints.
Therefore, before sewing or buying a dress, you should find out about the trends of this and the upcoming season.
Beauty in simplicity
Solid color products always look neat and simple, due to which it is convenient to dilute them with bright accessories, interesting jewelry or non-standard shoes.
Here are the colors to take note of to look exactly like the cover girl:
- dark red chili;
- rich burgundy - self-sufficient and noble;
- delicate vanilla cream;
- a warm peach shade reminiscent of beach sands;
- brown in an earthy shade;
- bright and extravagant pink;
- a shade of burnt sugar;
- cheesy color - rich mixture of yellow and orange;
- galactic blue.
Before choosing a dress, it will be useful to study your appearance and determine the color type - Autumn, Spring, Winter or Summer.
Certain shades are suitable for each color type: they best emphasize the natural beauty of a woman.
Flowers for lovely ladies
The floral print does not give up its positions. Unlike in years past, when we enjoyed small flowers on our clothes, this year promotes watercolor.
Large, slightly blurred flowers and plants are suitable for any girl. And due to their location, they can visually correct the figure.
Geometry is not losing ground
Geometry is the very classic that will always remain relevant.
Stripes, circles, polka dots and a check will make the figure look more toned. The main thing is to give preference to suitable accessories - the same strict handbags, laconic shoes.
What to wear if there is a lot of beauty
Is there at least one girl with appetizing forms who would not dream of looking beautiful?
A properly selected dress will help her in this, because it will emphasize everything that needs to be shown to the world, but will hide the unnecessary.
Stylists and image makers have prepared some useful tips for fat ladies:
- The correct location of the scent is everything - the cut in the center will slim and add a couple of centimeters of growth.
- The skirt should end at the narrowest point of the leg - under the knee or at the ankle. So the legs will be visually slimmer.
- The V-neck draws attention to the beautiful neckline and pulls out the whole look.
- Do not neglect the wide belt, which will accentuate the smooth transition from the waist to the hips. The belt should be "in place" - not too low or too high, but exactly at the narrowest point of the waist.
- Even the most unfortunate attire will save the heel. Moreover, in the 2019 season, comfortable, stable shoes are in trend.
Having a few extra pounds is not a reason to hide in shapeless robes of dark colors.
Plus-size women are shown bright colors, interesting prints and accessories that are relevant this year.
Shoes and accessories complete the look
Having picked up an outfit, it is important to complete it with harmonious shoes and accessories.
Fashionistas all over the world agree: heels are most suitable:
- Light summer option it is better to complement the same delicate and airy heeled sandals. As jewelry, it is worth stopping at beads and necklaces with medium-sized pendants. In summer, dresses with short sleeves are usually worn, so bracelets or fancy rings will be appropriate.
- For beach option you will have to buy shoes with flat soles - flip flops, mules, open sandals. The image will be balanced by a large bag - weaving and decor with ribbons are in trend.
- More dense fabrics in harmony with ankle boots and boots. Do not forget about the main trend of the upcoming fall - clothes should slightly cover the tops of the boots.
- On the holiday the ideal option is stilettos and clutches. Jewelry can be chosen depending on the style of the evening dress. For a laconic outfit, you need to find unusual necklaces. A brightly decorated bodice will be complemented by thin chains and bracelets.
Today, fashion supports experimentation: you can mix different styles.
Therefore, there is no need to be afraid of extravagant combinations: a feminine outfit and comfortable boots, an oversized coat.
What's hot this year?
This season, fashion designers allow women of fashion to experiment and wear any dress. However, the classic is at the peak of popularity: models up to mid-calf, with a V-neck and a wide belt to match.
However, there are several more styles that stylists prefer.
Red carpet outfit
For a festive event, it is recommended to choose a maxi length: then a spectacular neckline on the skirt will emphasize the beauty of the legs. To counterbalance such an extravagant bottom, the top should be restrained: closed hands and a minimum of bright details.
For a cocktail party, you can afford a shorter suit. This year, fluffy skirts and bright colors are in fashion: white, red, purple or pink.
You gotta be beautiful every day
For everyday wear, a girl can choose one of these stylish styles:
- Tulip. It is distinguished by a fitted seam, a massive skirt with pockets. Perfect for girls with very narrow hips and athletic shoulders. Such attire is allowed both for office work and for a date - the main thing is to choose the length correctly.
- Accent at the waist. Simple clothing is complemented by a wide and striking belt. It is desirable that it is not made of fabric, but of leather, straw or any other contrasting material. Or - on the contrary - with thin strings that can be tied into an interesting bow.
- Asymmetrical fit. For a walk or a date, you should choose a non-standard outfit. Fashion trends allow you to bare one shoulder, allow different lengths of the skirt parts or offset the slit to the side.
