A lot of pen and ink are used to explain the styles of dresses, tops and skirts. Now let's connect the top and skirt to make a simple introduction, that is, what styles of skirts are available. The author believes that the shape of the dress can be summarized as follows:
■h-shape means that the top is loose and the skirt is straight. The purpose of this kind of clothing is to make the wearer look elegant and subtle, which can effectively cover up the obese figure.
■x-shape. That is, the top is tight and the skirt is flared. The purpose of this dress is to highlight the rough figure of the wearer, especially to effectively show the slender waist.
■ Type A. That is, the top is tight and the skirt is loose. This kind of skirt can reflect the figure advantage of the upper body and properly cover up the figure disadvantage of the lower body.
■ Y type. Just a wider top and a tighter skirt. This skirt can effectively cover up the shortcomings of the upper body and perfectly show the advantages of the lower body.
The characteristics of various fabrics of suits have been introduced in detail in previous men's suits. Here, I don't want to repeat the explanation. After all, the fabrics of men's and women's suits are similar. Now I just make a simple summary of these fabrics:
■ pure cotton
The advantage is good hygroscopicity and breathability, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to shrink and wrinkle and needs to be ironed frequently.
■ Chemical fiber
Advantages are bright colors and soft texture, while disadvantages are poor hygroscopicity and air permeability.
■ Silk
Advantages are light and thin fit, noble and elegant, disadvantages are easy to wrinkle and fast fading.
■ woolen cloth
The advantages are wrinkle resistance, wear resistance and soft hand feeling, but the disadvantages are that it is difficult to wash and there is no summer dress.
■ Pure wool
The advantage is that it feels soft and elastic, but the disadvantage is that it is expensive and does not make summer clothes.
■ mixing
It absorbs the advantages of various materials, avoids the disadvantages of various materials, and is relatively cheap. So blended fabrics are often the first choice for women to wear.
The choice of dress color should be based on cool tones, and try not to choose bright and eye-catching colors, because in this way, the dignity and stability of the wearer can be reflected.
Unlike men's suits, women's dresses don't have to be dark. Various colors with a certain gray color can be selected, for example, carbon black, navy blue, smoke gray, dark brown, magenta, beige, milky white (see Figure 2-3 1, Figure 232) and so on.
Carbon black, navy blue and smoky gray are generally suitable for mature women; Purple, beige and milky white are generally suitable for young women.
The top and skirt of a two-piece skirt can be the same color, or it can be a combination of shallow top and deep bottom or deep top and shallow bottom, because such sharp contrast can enhance the impression you leave on others. However, it should be noted that the whole body color should not exceed three.
It is worth mentioning that dresses worn in formal business occasions, such as public speeches, are generally simple and clear, and it is best not to have patterns. However, patterns such as checks, dots and stripes can also be considered.
In addition, business-style suits and skirts are generally not suitable for adding too much embellishment, so as not to give people a trivial, messy, vulgar and stingy feeling, which is not very stable. Therefore, it is best not to choose dresses decorated with stickers, embroidery, lace, gold thread, colored strips, chains, sequins, pearls, leather, etc. ?
The reason why dresses can greatly increase the charm of women in the workplace is not necessarily because of high-quality fabrics or excellent workmanship. Of course, these are also important, but the most important thing is to fit.
Since fitting is so important, how can we judge whether this dress fits?
In fact, the method is very simple: when buying clothes, lift your elbows up to see if your armpits are tight; Hold your elbows forward to see if your back can move freely; When sitting down, will the waist and abdomen bulge and produce many folds; See if the protrusion of the chest and the waist of the side waist are just cut; Whether lining and cutting are as particular as fabric. In addition, the sleeve length of the coat should just cover the wearer's wrist. If it is too long, it will make the wearer look short and dull; If it is too short, it will make the wearer look stretched. Also, the coat or skirt should not be too fat or wrapped. Being too fat will make the wearer look depressed; Too much packaging often makes the wearer look a little funny and unnatural.
Warm reminder: In order to avoid a dress being too serious and stiff, women in the workplace can consider buying themselves a high-quality and durable plastic underwear, because underwear can effectively modify your figure. Put on plastic underwear and then put on a dress, and your figure will look exquisite, convex and concave, and feminine.
For female speakers, it is best to have 3-5 suits and skirts of different colors. Among them, 1 set of black suit skirt; Navy blue suit skirt 1 set; Dark gray suit skirt 1 set; You can also choose 1 package.
