Shirt dresses, fashionable summer women’s dresses
In the past, when we said we were putting on a shirt, everyone first thought of the classic fully buttoned, collared style. In today’s fashion selection, this has changed completely. Shirts are available in countless styles, so we can choose freely according to the season, body shape, age and many other factors.
The shirt dress as a style
One very distinctive piece within the wide range of shirts is the shirt dress. Of course, this term also covers a very broad selection.
The length of a shirt dress
In terms of style, everything from mini versions to full maxi length can be found. The choice of length is naturally greatly influenced by our body shape, primarily our height. In addition, current fashion trends may also affect the demand for longer or shorter styles.
The cut of a shirt dress
We have come a long way in today’s fashion world from the traditional fully buttoned shirt cut with a stand-up collar.
The buttons
In terms of buttoning, buttons are often placed only around the neckline, but there are also pieces where the buttons are not on the front but on the back, either all the way down or only on smaller or larger sections. Buttons are also often replaced by various ribbons, beads and zips, with their variety limited almost only by our imagination.
The ties
From straight cuts to tailored pieces and looser styles, many versions have become popular. Designers often use separate decorative belts, which allow us to shape the style of the shirt dress according to our own figure. With the help of a tie, we can make it more fitted under the bust, at the waist or even at the hips.
The collar
The design and shape of the collar are also extremely varied. From traditional shirt collars to stand-up collars, rounded or ruffled collars, the selection is very wide. The collar itself is often decorated with beads, stones, lace or tulle materials.
A bow collar design is also an extremely popular solution.
The material and colour of a shirt dress
A shirt dress can be an essential basic piece in our wardrobe in every season, so it is important to consider what material we choose. In warmer periods, lighter and thinner materials come to the forefront. These fabrics have a softer drape and provide a comfortable yet stylish appearance. In cooler months, thicker and warmer materials become more prominent.
In line with fashion trends, the full colour spectrum appears in this garment category. Colourful patterned shirt dresses and pieces with lettering are also popular.
In connection with shirt dresses, two other important garments should also be mentioned. Depending on the length of the shirt dress, it can be combined excellently with various leggings and shorts.
