Note that if you appreciate a slight support, bet instead on models with thin straps or halter type.

What fabrics are used in a long wrap dress?

Don't forget... Initially, the long wrap dress was intended to be worn in summer while remaining elegant. It is therefore quite natural that designers favor light fabrics.

With its satin aspect, silk brings a very chic side to any long flowing dress . For late aperitifs, receptions on yachts or formal evenings, bet on the long satin dress. As soon as it slips over your shoulders, it will adorn you with a natural chic that will be hard to resist.

More suited to daytime walks, the long dress for women is an ode to natural beauty. Simple while remaining qualitative, this fabric is an ode to the free spirit of bohemian culture. Summery, a little angelic, a dress cut in this fabric will command the respect of your peers.

Very versatile, the long summer dress is one of those garments that never disappoints. However, for a certain category of people, it can be scary to wear it. Who is it ? Women measuring less than one meter sixty. For fear of looking even smaller, they stay away from the long flowery dress of their dreams. What a mistake...

How to wear a long dress when you are small?

For those under six feet tall, it can be difficult to wear a long wrap dress . Even when they are seduced by the model, they hesitate. "And if this garment crushes me?" , "what if I look even shorter with this outfit?" , ... Frightened, they dare not move.

However, it is not forbidden to wear a long dress for women when you are less than 160 centimeters. The key is to follow the following advice to the letter.

1. Favor fluid materials

For petite women, the long viscose wrap dress is an ally of choice. In order to accentuate your physical assets without losing precious centimeters, bet on fluidity. When the model is too close to the body, it only accentuates your small size.

2. Wear heels

Unless you're a catwalk model, it's never a good idea to wear a floral maxi dress with flats. Instead, pull out your finest pumps. Refining the leg, they help you gain centimeters both visually and concretely.

Be careful though: for this trick to bear fruit, you must use stiletto heels and not wedge sandals. Indeed, the seconds can considerably weigh down your silhouette.

3. Show some skin

Above all, do not lock yourself in! This is the best way to look even smaller. Conversely, dare to reveal a little of your skin. It's time to dare the backless dress or the one with a high slit on the thigh. Overwhelmed by your sex appeal, those around you won't even notice that you're not tall.

4. Favor plain materials

This advice should be moderate. Indeed, small and very skinny women will majestically wear the long and flowery dress . On the other hand, for those who have curves, it will be a little more complex...

If you really like patterns, err on the side of caution. As many mouths scattered here and there on a dress will blow a breath of fresh air, as much as the stripes will pack you down. In case you are a petite woman, stay away from dresses with stripes, be they horizontal or vertical. By following this advice, you should have no trouble wearing a patterned long dress for women .

5. Optimize your hairstyle

Raise your hair to gain a few centimeters. With a bun or a high chignon, you will look taller. Freeing your neck, these hairstyles allow you to wear a long wrap dress with presence.

Where to buy her long summer dress?

What is really surprising is that you have not yet fallen for a long flowing dress . In view of all the advantages of the latter, it is quite simply a crime of lèse-majesté. It's time to get it right.
