Long sleeves for a long time considered a sign of aristocracy. Today, every woman can find a dress that will emphasize her individuality. How to properly present yourself in this image?

Features

The long sleeve is universal: for any age and figure. With proper presentation, it looks appropriate in everyday life and at social events, relevant all year round.

In addition to aesthetic beauty and grace, a long sleeve adds confidence, visually balances the figure and straightens the posture.

Long sleeves will help to make graceful slim handles and soften their angularity, as well as hide extra centimeters of full hands. Choosing original colors, fashionable styles and bright accents, you can create a unique style.

Styles

Great importance in choosing a dress belongs to the season and the occasion. From this depends on the style of clothing, which means - the sleeves. Long can be considered any sleeve longer than ¾.

There are dress models for which a long sleeve is required (bat). For others, this is an additional detail that helps to better reveal the merits of the figure (low-cut and lace variants). But even here there are many options for the design of long sleeves: practical raglan, fancy flashlight, bohemian loose sleeves, romantic long translucent sleeves with antique or oriental side slits ...

Particular care should be given to models with asymmetric sleeve length (one shoulder) or haute couture for the carpet (for example, Julia Roberts' black dress with open armpits). For such things need special cases and the public.

With open back

Such options are good in maxi-length. Long sleeves help to look elegant in such a dress, especially in the combination of "open back and deep slit." The deeper the neckline, the slimmer and higher you need to be a lady. This is clearly seen in the "mermaid" dresses. The narrow skirt and low flared hem of such a model balance the silhouette, make the image mysterious and charming.

It is advisable to correlate the depth of the cut with the length of the dress. A short dress with an open back is rare, it is often played up with a cross-strap on the back. It will also beautify the slim girl and highlight the legs. In order not to become vulgar, pay attention to models with a neckline no lower than the shoulder blades with a mini length.

In general, open back is the prerogative of evening or secular dresses.

Closed

Here the long sleeve complements the strict image. When using bright finishes and accessories, you can make the dress festive and interesting. There are more options for sleeves style. If the dress code allows, then the dress can be chosen from a printed fabric (including, with classical patterns, a Christmas tree or a goose foot), you can beat the neckline with turn-down collars in a single-color version.

Laconic styles are beaten up with colors - geometric illusions help to stretch the figure, make it slimmer. For the brave, there are psychedelic drawings that will hide problem areas.

Fitted

Dresses with a pronounced waist and long sleeves are usually associated with retro style.

The fabric is selected according to the season, the length can be any. Mini remind fun 60s, longer versions refer to the 20th and 30th years. The longer the dress, the wider the hem can be.A clasp on frequent buttons at the front helps create a modest and elegant look. In this case, an important role is played by the material: dense and monochromatic, with a strict pattern suitable for work and the cold season. Light, draped and flying models with a colorful or naive print (oriental cucumber, peas, flowers) are the prerogative of the warm season.

Laced

In the warm season, laced models with long sleeves can be options for each day, if you choose the right combination. The use of a lace sleeve (they are trying to make it less free) is appropriate all year round, but a fully lace dress with a lining is already an evening option.

“Naked dresses” have recently gained popularity, such a bold option looks beautiful on slender, tall and young. Color guipure on a beige (solid) lining looks more soft and practical, it visually “adds” kilograms. A conservative option is considered the bottom fabric to match the lace, this model is more suitable lush ladies. Often openwork is used to shade the deep neckline in the upper part of the dress. In this embodiment, long sleeve is necessary: ​​it will make the image feminine and romantic. Remember, the shorter the lace dress, the stricter the silhouette and fewer details.

Wedding dresses can be distinguished for which lace trim and combination of fabrics are preferable. Clothing for celebrations and ballroom dancing in this way emphasizes its sophistication and festive character.

Knitted

These dresses are good in the winter and in the off season. Such models are usually made monophonic. Multicolour and patterns can add completeness in bulk binding. The slimmer the figure, the larger the pattern can be and the coarser the knit. They try to make the sleeves style less loose so as not to overdo it with volume. Knitted models with smooth and thin weaving, reminiscent of knitwear, can be chosen by ladies with any figure. For completeness, choose knitted dresses with side trim from other materials that focus on the shoulders, in the upper part or in the center of the dress. It is better to refuse any pattern and pattern.

Woolen

Natural and warm fabrics look noble. It should be combined with simple silhouettes and styles. This outfits for the cold season. Simple drawings, emphasis on accessories help to refresh the dress, to make it less official.

Chiffon

Lightweight and flying fabrics are unmatched to create holiday and summer outfits. They can be combined with each other, not to be afraid of layering, bright colors and unusual patterns.

The main rule is to take into account the color type so that the skin of the face appears fresh and radiant. Sleeves can be flared, with cuts.

With a checkered print

The cage is one of the classic and dangerous prints, it is important to learn how to use it correctly. The use of vertical orientation of smooth cells is a traditional variant of the design of everyday and shirt models, which enlivens the image thanks to the diversity and small pattern.

With care you need to use a deliberately large and small cell. A dress with a diagonal cell will look universal and unexpected, especially if the pattern is of thin lines. This will look beautiful on a full figure and make it visually slimmer.

Length

The correct length will help demonstrate the dignity of the figure, emphasize elegance, make slimmer, add height or make it younger.

Long

Dress to the floor - a good option for special occasions. This creates a very interesting and romantic image. The use of lace, trimming or decorating will add spice.

Designers offer long dresses for the summer and winter season. But in spring and autumn the hems are shorter for practical reasons.

Midi

A great option for office or casual dress, which can be animated accessories.Plain dresses of such length will be a good basis for creating a specific image and a number of ensembles. The combination of fabrics for the sleeves and the coquette of a dress of lighter and lighter materials is often used to simulate a dress or skirt business kit. It is decorated with turn-down collars, ruffles, buttons, selected canvas of a contrasting color.

An elegant option will be winning for any age. Stylists recommend it more for women older than 30, because in a straight silhouette it distracts attention from the legs, focusing on the upper part of the body. Fitted dresses with a wide skirt or very narrow opposite will attract increased interest precisely to the legs.

A short

This is an option for young women with a good figure. Long sleeves make the outfit more feminine and elegant.

Lace version looks defiant, thick fabrics soften the brightness of the image. Colorful and shiny trim options are worn at parties, and plain dresses are universal.

What to wear?

Accessories help to create the right image. Natural fabrics need a noble natural frame. For example, thick warm dresses are perfectly complemented by a string of pearls or gold jewelry, leather shoes or shoes. Remember that self-sufficient dresses do not require additional decorations, otherwise you can simplify the image.

Light fabrics are combined with jewelry, crystals, bright semi-precious stones. The dress can be combined with jackets or cardigans, belts and bags. The color gamut of the kit is chosen versatile or contrasting colors, it is possible a different shade of the same color.

Saturated calm colors can change from season to season, bright ones are more difficult to combine with fashion trends.

It is important that the accessories to the dress take into account the season and occasion. Even in a business dress let's say a bright accent, if the rest of things belong to the universal.

The longer and more elegant the dress, the finer and sleeker the details should be. The more colors in his palette, the quieter accessories should be. The main thing is the measure, and sometimes accessories can be superfluous.

Feel free to experiment with images, try on star and just liked the bows. This is the only way to create your own style!
