Combining the incompatible is the goal of the designer's profession. However, sometimes the combinations they create become so popular that they win the respect and love of fashion fans. One of such inventions is a buttoned robe dress. This is a novelty in the fashion industry, which, thanks to its beauty and convenience, has already managed to win the love of more than one million fans. How did designers manage to combine business style clothing and a robe? How to wear this know-how?
Features of the style
The robe dress is made in various variations, such as:
- False smell;
- On buttons;
- Lightning lock.
Each of these options has its own characteristics, but the option with buttons looks truly amazing. The finished outfits look very impressive, and adding simple accessories makes the image of the lady who wears such a dress mysterious and unique.
Depending on the length of the dress, cut and other elements, the robe dress has different purposes:
- This can be an evening dress intended for going out. Often such dresses are floor length. The features of these models can be a slit, the addition of a belt and matching necklaces;
- Everyday option. It can be midi-length or shortened. Such dresses are more modest, and the cut of the collar area is close to the cut of office clothes - jackets and shirts. Such outfits are suitable for everyday wear, and can become part of the image of a business independent woman;
- Cocktail dresses. They can have different lengths - from mini to knee-length. Most often, they are intended for wearing around the house, but are suitable for receiving guests. Such dresses are suitable for cocktail parties, bar clubs or night discos. Despite the short length, such outfits suit girls with curvy shapes, elements of the robe hide extra pounds in the abdomen, back and hips.
Who is it suitable for?
A robe dress is not suitable for every lady. But this outfit has one secret. House robes sit on women more freely than weekend and evening dresses. And although most designers' developments are aimed at slender, thin and tall girls, a robe dress, on the contrary, is able to hide extra folds on the stomach. The robe dress pattern provides for a free style, this outfit is able to visually reduce a few kilograms. At the same time, the beautiful relief of the body will only be emphasized, and the loose material in the stomach area will allow you to hide the folds.
The situation is different for thin, tall and slender girls, whose chest and hips are not clearly defined. The fit of such outfits is too loose and the most strict version can look too sloppy on them. In addition, due to the lack of body relief, the dress will more closely resemble a robe. The lighter the fabric from which the outfit is made, the worse things will be. If the girl still decides to wear such an outfit, then she should choose short models made of thick fabrics that will not flutter when walking and in the wind.
Varieties
The models of these buttoned outfits can be made in different ways, depending on the length:
- Mini;
- Knee-length;
- Behind the knee;
- On the floor.
Depending on the type of fastening, such dresses are divided into:
- An imitation clasp that serves only a decorative function;
- Shirt dress with full-length buttons;
- Wrap dress, complemented with buttons for decorative purposes.
If the buttons are only decorative and are not intended to be unbuttoned, such dresses often have an additional fastener on the left side of the sleeve. It helps the girl get into the dress. Often, such dresses are equipped with an additional belt that emphasizes the waistline and, thanks to different forms of ties, allows you to create different options for the bow.
If the fasteners play more than just a decorative role, the level of button fastening can be used to create different looks. For an office look, a shirt dress is suitable, which allows you to fasten up to the top button at the collar. Often, such dresses are complemented with decorative ties. If the dress is a cocktail dress and is intended for leisure, then it is better to leave several one or several top buttons unfastened. This will make the look exceptionally advantageous. With midi or floor-length dresses, you can experiment more. One or several bottom buttons can be left unfastened.
In this case, you should be very careful - sometimes buttons play a cruel joke and unbutton themselves at the most inopportune moment. If the bottom buttons were unbuttoned to the maximum, and another one accidentally unbuttoned, it will expose the legs completely.
Such models look advantageous on short girls. The long line of buttons visually stretches the silhouette. In combination with high heels, a short, plump girl will visually look taller.
