Solids or Prints? How to Choose

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

So many solids and plenty of prints! How's a girl to choose from a gazillion brilliantly beautiful gowns? Tiza's here with helpful hints on how to choose between a solid or a print.

Your body type plays a lead role in your choice. For fuller figured ladies, a small print, like tiny polka dots, or a solid with a print on your bust or in one area works best. Slimmer girls can get away with big prints that create the illusion of a little more curve.

Consider the event. Is a psychedelic, tie-dye patterned dress too flamboyant for a classy occasion? On the flip side, a summer night outdoor dance party may be perfect for an extravagant fabric full of zigzags and colorful bursts.

Consider the cut. A super short, low cut dress in a funky neon pattern may not be the best combo for a wedding. Don't want to look trashy or steal the limelight from the bride. But give it a go for a school dance! Instead, a short solid dress is a super sophisticated choice to wear while you watch your friends cut their cake.

Accessorize wisely. If your dress dances on its own, go minimal on bright, chunky jewelry. Instead, stick with simple studs or one rhinestone piece. You might not need jewelry at all. Also, if you choose a pattern that really moves, go light on the makeup. There's room for one loud piece in your diva ensemble--be it your dress or your eye shadow.

When choosing between a print or a solid, think about how versatile you want the dress to be. A pattern may limit your selection of heels and accessories to wear, but will definitely be the gem of your closet. A solid, on the other hand, will pair well with more accessories and probably be appropriate for more occasions. Also, while a print will grab attention, you can get away with re-wearing a solid more often.

Just a few hints when faced with the choice of a lifetime. Whatever you choose, if it's Tiza, it's right.
