Purchasing the Right Special Occasion Dresses

Before you run out and start buying special dresses for holiday parties or upcoming weddings, it's important to know what to look for and how to buy the right dresses for your figure. There are a number of factors that determine which type of dress is right for the occasion. What season is it? What time is the event? Did the invitation state that it was black tie or semi-formal? How do most of the people you know normally dress for a similar event? Answering these questions first can help you choose the right style of dress. The next step is choosing a dress that flatters your body type.

Choosing Special Dresses Based on Body Type

Whether you're apple or pear shaped, large or small on top, or have wide or narrow shoulders, there are dresses meant specifically for your body type. While it's tempting to choose a dress just because you like it, if you purchase a dress that flatters your figure you'll look and feel great about your fashion choice.

Empire waist dresses are great for women with larger bottom halves. The free flowing look of the style is perfect for women who have smaller chests but feel that their legs and hips are too big. A halter style dress shows off toned arms and the décolletage, making it an ideal style for athletic types.

Seasonal Fashion Dresses:

When filling your closet with dresses, keep in mind that you need a dress for every season. You also need special dresses appropriate for day and night time events. Attending events in the spring and summer means you need dresses in light colors or soft prints.


Creating a wardrobe of special Occasion dresses is easy if you know which styles flatter your body type and follow the rules of seasonal fashion.
