About dresses
All long dresses are divided into evening and everyday. Each of the types is represented by the maximum length, also called a "dress on the floor", but differs in style, fabric and the presence of a print.
Evening dresses to the floor
Most often, an evening dress is associated with maxi-length, because this image has long been rooted in the minds of people around the world. To look especially at an official reception, a ball or on the red carpet (which is possible), you must choose a dress with unusual lines or decorate it with catchy details and accessories.
Original ideas for such a dress can be considered:
- a dress with open shoulders, emphasizing the line of the chest and back;
- a style with unusual cuts that reveals the advantageous part: legs, back, waist and so on;
- a dress with an open back, which has already become a classic of evening dresses;
- with unusual bright prints and cuts, which is often used by modern designers.
In recent years, long cocktail dresses of silk, velvet or lace have become popular. Solid motifs are very common among evening dresses. One option: combine a solid dress with large bracelets and wine-colored lipstick. To top it off, use smokey eyes makeup.
In the case of acquiring a monophonic evening gown, it will be easier in the future to create completely new, different images from it through accessories, make-up, decor and shoes.

It is an immortal luxury and a sign of good taste.

A long dress with a slit is the basis of the image of a strong, smart and beautiful woman with a refined taste, and a slit that opens her leg captures the eyes with a bright highlight of the outfit. Over the past few seasons, the style has been unusually popular among ordinary women and among show business stars.

You can choose several options and styles for different seasons and combine with a variety of accessories.
- Another comfortable style is a cotton shirt dress, which can be combined with a light street style, free from prejudice and giving complete freedom of movement and giving a slight negligence to the image. Suitable for the spring-summer season.
- The oversize type will give your image fragility and femininity, but in fact it will be a very comfortable outfit for every day. It can be combined with any accessories, but you need to be careful in choosing shoes.
