Modern fashion constantly presents surprises. Some of the outfits that are created by the fashion designers of our day are designed exclusively for catwalks, others are quite versatile and everyday, but the most interesting ones are special, exclusive for each particular case.
Exclusive for the evening
Beautiful cocktail dresses are one of the most beloved and popular themes for the creativity of fashion designers from around the world. These outfits are very beautiful and elegant, but, unlike evening ones, they are rarely decorated with natural fur or precious (semi-precious) stones. The cocktail dress is made of heavy, most expensive, unusually beautiful fabrics, it can be shorter, but much more modest, discreetly decorated, expressing the elegance and taste of its owner.
As for the length and style, beautiful cocktail dresses can be completely diverse, depending on the preferences of the fair sex and the event for which the outfit will be worn. Cocktail dresses most often have the simplest style, which, however, can vary depending on the right choice of accessories. The most popular are elegant handbags and scarves, exquisite brooches and even modest chains with pendants. All these items can change not only the appearance of the dress, but also the image of his mistress. Depending on the situation, cocktail dresses can be complemented by an elegant jacket of different lengths.
A bit of history
The first cocktail dresses appeared in the wardrobe of the fair sex along with cocktail parties - the most popular event in America of the 20s of the last century. It was then that the brave women of fashion first put their new outfits on the court of the public - dresses for special occasions. At that time, open shoulders and the average length of vestments were considered incredibly revolutionary - only brave young ladies, leading a lifestyle of bohemians, not afraid of universal condemnation, decided to wear them. Today's fashionistas are also not afraid of anything: modern cocktail dresses have a variety of styles, are made from the best fabrics - chiffon, silk and satin. Each season and each collection of fashion designers adds to this exquisite ladies fashion along with originality with the help of accessories and new trim details, changes the length and style.
What is fashionable?
The most popular is still the “little black dress” created by the great Coco Chanel and remains the most versatile option for any party. For formal and informal events, cocktail dresses made from materials such as brocade, silk, velvet, crepe or satin are preferred.
Dresses for cocktail parties can be of different colors. Depending on fashion trends and the time of year, ladies may prefer light-colored summer dresses (pale pink, pale green or sky blue) or winter - muted and deep (dark blue, gray, black or brown). Sometimes cocktail dresses can be decorated with bright prints - they are especially suitable for the representatives of the beautiful half of humanity, whom nature has awarded a slender figure that does not differ in feminine forms. It is color prints and bright coloring that will help visually change the appearance of a fragile fashionista and make the figure a little more round and full. In the opposite case - if the owner of the cocktail dress is embarrassed by the shortcomings of her figure - it is worth giving preference to the classic style, but not the shape of a shapeless hoodie. Tall young ladies will look perfect in long - ankle-deep - dresses, while short women can visually rise in a short dress, to the knee or a little lower.
