The single shoulder dress has been in fashion for many years but still exudes that sexy, flirty and edgy vibe in the wearer.
There are no hard and fast rules to the fashion. But you need to choose the right accessories, make up and hairstyle to make a truly chic fashion statement.
It is so easy to go wrong with the stylish design. You can go bold, but it is better to avoid adding accessories that compete with your neckline (i.e. bright and sparkly jewellery). Instead, go for subtle jewellery with a nice clutch purse and shoes for a glam look.
Ruffles and flowers on the shoulder are trendy and look great on every woman, but just keep the style simple, classy and elegant
There are many way to play up the design but you have to consider your body type . You can choose a wide or narrow shoulder dress. The shoulder of the dress can be worn near the neck, at the edge of your shoulder or in the centre of your shoulder. You can go for a cap sleeve, a three-quarter or full-length sleeve
Curvy ladies can experiment with solid-coloured sheath dress. It clings at the right places. Pleated gathers also look nice on ladies. And the colour of the dress should suit your skin tone.
The easy way to transform a simple one shoulder dress into something chic and fabulous is to nip the waist with a wide or skinny belt.
However, this fashion statement is not for the shy type, you would be showing a hint of skin. Make sure you take care of your skin and it would be good if you tone your arms.Exfoliate and thoroughly moisturize the skin before applying makeup.
To look awesome,you must wear makeup that blends with your face, neck, and shoulders. Make sure that the makeup is appropriate for the occasion and the dress. Light dust the neck and the shoulders with an illuminating powder for the chic effect.
Wear light makeup if the jewellery worn will be diamonds or chunky gemstones.Smaller earrings such as studs will keep your look on the elegant side.
Avoid strapped bras. Instead opt for s suupportive trapless bras or replace your bra straps with jewellery bra straps to add glam to your look.However, women that are large-breasted may wear transparent or nude straps for support.
With all the right accessories in place, it is very important you hold your head up high and remain unruffled when you step out in the dress. Otherwise, you will look awkward and lost that touch of sexy elegance that come with the style.
