A shirt dress is a style of dress that borrows its design from men’s shirts. A buttoned front, collars, sleeves with cuffs, front pockets; the shirt dress is the long, feminine version of the humble shirt worn by men. With tailored looks and sleeves, long or short, the shirt dress looks great and suits most body types. The shirt dress is a perfect addition to your wardrobe.
The shirt dress is perfect for a day out at the beach or for an evening out with friends. It can be worn casually or to the office or a party. Loose fitting, the shirt dress is often worn with a belt to accentuate the waistline. It does not matter if you have a perfect waist or not, shirt dresses can look great on everyone. Go for a brown or black belt for an elegant look or combine a broad, bright coloured belt with a plain shirt dress for a stylish look.
A dress in neutral shades looks great over a bright coloured, turtle neck T shirt. If you want to wear the shirt dress for an evening or a night out, you can choose from a range of fabrics and colours. Cotton and linen are popular fabrics for the more casual shirt dress.
The shirt dress can be mixed and matched over trousers, capris or simply with a pair of tights. To add zing to the overall look, pair the shirt dress with a denim jacket and boots. You can also wear a formal jacket with the dress for a more professional appearance.
There is no limit to the ways in which you can accessorise. Combine the shirt dress with the right kind of accessories for a stylish and sophisticated fashion statement. Strappy sandals, flat ballets, high heeled stilettos or even knee high boots, all look good with the shirt dress. To complete the look, accentuate your dress with the right handbag.
