Long Evening Dresses Tips
Long evening dresses can make you feel elegant no matter what your height. Selecting the Perfect Dress
Taller woman though are able to wear many garments and accessories that a shorter woman should not consider; but a well-designed basic dress is essential in every woman's wardrobe.
A short dress may be a better choice for a shorter girl to select for her outing but a long evening dress can be considered if the shorter woman keeps the following suggestions in mind:
* Select a dress with a skirt that is straight, not puffy. The fabric of the dress you select should be silk, chiffon velvet, or satin. A sheath style dress is very flattering to many figures and can add height. If you are short the fabric will be more flattering if it is smooth and all one color.
* Select a dark color dress as opposed to white or pink. Women of any height appear thinner in darker colors. Do not select a multi color garment. * Look at the top of the dress. The V neckline will lengthen the entire dress. A strapless dress is flattering and makes a person look taller also.
Try the long evening dress on while wearing the shoes you intend to wear. If you need to have the dress shortened make sure the hem is not raised above your toe. Select shoes that you can wear all evening. Removing your shoes will make the dress drag on the floor. If the dress stops at your ankle, even if this makes walking easier, the eye will stop at your shoes and make you look shorter.
