SHIRT DRESS

Keep it cool and casual with a shirt dress. Defined as a loose-fitting dress, it features a shirt collar and a button-down front. This style comes in different lengths, and sometimes has a nipped in waist. The focal point of a shirt dress is the collar and button-down front. It’s super easy to dress up or down, grab some chunky ankle boots or sneakers and you’ll be ready for a night out or a night at the beach!

WRAP DRESS

The wrap dress features a front closure by wrapping one side of the dress across the other and tying the fabric at the waist or back. Often seen by the likes of Kate Middleton, this style has a classic silhouette that is perfect for athletic body shapes, as it creates the illusion of an hourglass figure, even if you don’t have one naturally.

CORSET DRESS

This type of dress is accentuated by a corset that is laced up and fitted over the dress. It has a peasant-like appearance and is flattering to the waistline. The corset can be a contrast or complementary part of the design. The lacing can be at the back or front of the dress.

BLOUSE DRESS

The blouson dress is soft, floating and the bodice blouses over the skirt. It is modeled on a blouse effect but has a skirt attached.
