En cocktailkjole for hver kroppstype

One of the most versatile dresses that were ever designed for wear on special occasions is the cocktail kjole. While the events for which cocktail kjolees are worn are usually late afternoon or early evening affairs that are too casual to be called black-tie events, many cocktail kjolees can now be worn elsewhere, depending on the cut and the material of the dress and the accessories worn with it.

To wear a cocktail kjole to a more formal event, all you need to do is to accessorize accordingly, perhaps wear more flashy pieces of jewelry and heavier makeup. If you need to wear something dressy to the office for any reason other than the usual skirt or pantsuit, you can wear a cocktail kjole that is not too flashy and just throw on a blazer and slip into sensible office shoes. Many current styles of cocktail kjolees are no longer limited to being party wear anymore.

Choosing what style of cocktail kjole to wear, however, can be very tricky for most women. After all, only a few women could claim to have truly perfect bodies, and most women who do not fall into the supermodel category prefer to hide the flaws of their figures. Wearing a one-piece dress such as a cocktail kjole can easily reveal those flaws if the dress does not fit the wearer’s body type.

In picking out the right cocktail kjole to wear, a woman should always consider her body type - if she is top-heavy or bottom-heavy - and find something that will balance out her figure. If it is bottom-heavy, it should be to draw attention to the upper part of her body and to her face. If she is top-heavy, she has the option to emphasize her cleavage or to wear something that will pull the eyes to her legs.

What kind of cocktail kjole would a woman have with a bottom-heavy figure? As said above, a woman with a bottom-heavy figure would want to hide the thickness around her hips and thighs. A good cocktail kjole for her to wear would be a dress that fits tightly around the waist but with the seams pushed out by the padding around the abdomen and having a skirt that flies out of the hips and thighs. A cocktail kjole with a full skirt would be perfect for a woman with a bottom-heavy figure because it will definitely hide whatever flabbiness and bulges that she would like to see.

Another option available for a woman with a bottom-heavy figure is a cocktail kjole that sports an empire-style waistline. A cocktail kjole with an empire-style waistline has the higher waist, thus pulling the eyes towards the shoulders, the neck and the face. It also drapes and skims over the lower body. The only risk with wearing an empire-style cocktail kjole, however, is that the empire-style cut is often used on maternity dresses, and so a woman wearing such a dress may be mistaken to be pregnant.

Og enda et valg for en kvinne med en bunntung figur er en cocktailkjole som enten er ermeløs eller stroppløs, også med et blussende skjørt. Igjen, baring armene og skuldrene er effektiv i å trekke oppmerksomhet vekk fra hoftene.

Når det gjelder kvinner med topptunge figurer, kunne hun enten understreke spaltningen eller arven sin, som nevnt over. Hvis hun ønsker å fokusere på beina i stedet for klyving, kan hun ha på seg en cocktailkjole med en farget topp som er parret med et mønstret skjørt. Hun kan gå i nederkant på skjørtet for å gjøre det kort og virkelig trekke øynene til bena.

Hvis hun vil tiltrekke seg oppmerksomhet mot klyvinga heller enn bena, kan hun dekke til beina i en langskjørt cocktailkjole, men avsløre litt hud på overkroppen med en lav V-hals gullstikkende utringning. Faktisk kan hun trekke øynene til begge kjolene sine ved å bruke en utringning hvis hun vil. Hva hun ikke skal ha på seg en cocktailkjole med en altfor travel topp, fordi det vil gjøre at overkroppen hennes ser større ut og skjev størrelsen på figuren.

Tilbehøret hjelper også til å opprettholde illusjonen om balanse på kvinnens silhuett bortsett fra å bruke riktig cocktailkjole. Tyngre kvinner kan bruke glitrende øreringer, halskjeder eller halskjeder, mens tyngre kvinner kan gi fra seg halskjeder og velge et armbånd. Imidlertid bør hun først kjøpe cocktailkjolen sin før hun bestemmer hvilket tilbehør, veske og sko hun skal ha på seg.
