Dresses : This Season’s Best-Sellers
For the fashion forward now is the time to start thinking of updating your wardrobe for Spring and Summer but you may be wondering what the key trends are for this season? The catwalks were dominated by several recurring themes and opting for these looks is one way that you can bring your look bang up to date. So take your pick from pleats, floral prints, 70s style or lace as these were the main themes seen on the catwalk for Spring Summer 2011.
Pleats were all over the catwalks for spring summer 2011 in the form of skirts and dresses. Not as difficult to wear as you may think it should be easy to pick up a simple style of pleated dress for summer. These dresses look good when paired with flat ballet pumps or peep toe sandals for an evening occasion but can be dressed down with a cropped jacket and slouchy handbag for daytime wear.
Prints on dresses are usually popular in the Spring and Summer seasons and this year is no exception. As well as stripe and animal prints the floral printed dress is the hot look for this season. Feminine and sophisticated tailored dresses with small print florals were prevalent on the catwalks or for a bolder look you could try one of the 70s inspired maxi dresses with a big bold flower print. Floral prints can look ‘busy’ so make sure you keep your accessories ultra simple when choosing this look.
The 70s theme is an extension of the floral print theme and many of the floral dresses seen on the catwalks for Spring Summer 2011 cross into this theme. The hippie boho-chic look is back and the flowing maxi dresses are really easy for every woman to wear whatever their shape or size. Maxi dresses are also great for summer holidays and hot weather as they are so light, cool and airy to wear – they are also usually quick drying making them practical too. The look is boho-chic, so for anyone who prefers to dress more casually 70s inspired maxi dresses are the perfect choice.
Lace dresses have been around for a few seasons now but the look remains strong for Spring Summer 2011. White lace was very popular on this season’s catwalks with some beautiful detailing on dresses. The look can be bohemian and flowing white lace with a 70s feel or fitted and chic for a more tailored look. If white lace isn’t for you then why not try one of the brighter colored lace dresses in hot pink or bright red? Lace is a great look for eveningwear and a dress in this fabric will ensure that your look is up to date.
