The last time you wore a dress was probably in your teens, in school or possibly, college. Typically, it seems, once women enter the work life or get married, they choose to stick to the familiarity of Indian wear such as salwar kameezes or churidar kurtas, and for special occasions, sarees.
This is probably because these are deemed more acceptable’ and help one to blend in, rather than stand apart. However, in recent times, Indian fashion has also become more open to global trends and women are looking at options to be more fashionable and be trendsetters. Stores now display women’s dresses, and you can buy women dresses online also.
Let’s see what kind of dresses are out there and what would be suitable for you.
1. Mini
If you have legs you want to show off, the mini dress is perfect. It is short, and hemline ends above the knees. It has a young and fun vibe about it. This is strictly for casual and leisure wear.
2. Midi
These dresses have the hemline below the knees and at about midcalf. The dresses are structured and elegant and are suitable for formal and office wear. Based on the cut of these dresses, there are further varieties-
Sheath or Pencil dress: These dresses are well fitted and have a straight and narrow fit. This is more for the tall and thin body types
Flared: This has a fitted waist and flared skirt and is a classic which suits all body types.
