If you are attending a wedding, glamorous party or black tie event then I’m sure the number one thing you will be worrying about is what to wear. We all like to make a lasting impression, so choosing the right evening dress can be a bit of an ordeal. First you will need to think about what style will be appropriate for the event. Do you need a floor-length maxi dress or can you get away with a shorter hemline? What time of year is the event taking place at? Will you need to think about bringing a warm cardigan or jacket? Is the event outdoors? Are stilettos that would sink into grass a definite no? Once you have considered these questions you should start to have an idea of what type of evening dress you are looking for. If you do not normally wear dresses and are unsure what style would suit your figure then it is a good idea to go window shopping first and try on a few different designs. Bring a friend for a second opinion and take note of what you saw and the price. If you have a petite or curvaceous body then finding the right dress can sometimes be difficult. An empire line is always flattering on a longer dress and gives the illusion of height, a small waist and long legs. If you are choosing a shorter dress, look for an A-line design that is cut on the bias. Think about what your best features are and how you can draw attention to them. For example, if you have great legs then show them off. A plunging neckline or back can look really sexy but be careful not to show too much flesh. As a general rule of thumb if you are showing flesh on your top half then keep your bottom half covered and vice versa. Only in the summer months when the sun is shining can you get away with breaking this rule. 2012 is set to bring lots of glamour with no shortage of evening dresses. The main focus will be the neckline and you will find a range of plunging V-necks, scoop necks and halter necks. These will be highlighted with lots of sparkle and jewelled sandals to match. Jewellery will be chunky with warm tones and antique gold. Choose one statement piece as a focal point, such as a ring or necklace and complete your look with a clutch bag. Now you have the inspiration you can start browsing evening dresses to find your perfect outfit. Once you have found a style that suits you search for dresses online and pick up a bargain today!
