Wear the Little White Dress

The white dress is not reserved for brides! Adopted by Marilyn Monroe in the 1950s, it stands out thanks to the biggest names in fashion like Courrèges. It is now even well and truly part of the basics of the wardrobe. Light, casual or more elegant, simple or more worked, it allows to adopt all styles and is worn on all occasions.

What form for which morphology?
- If you are particularly thin and slender (your silhouette is called me), you have the choice between a fluid white dress or close to the body. To give a little relief to your outfit, focus on the effects of materials and details: lace, embroidery, gathers.
- If your bust and your hips are the same widths (morphology in H), you are spoiled for choice. Loose model or close to the body, simple fabric or working, a single watchword: put your assets in value to reveal your fashion potential.
- If your bust is wider than your hips(morphology called V), opt for a simple white dress, rather fluid, which uniformizes the silhouette by distributing volumes.
- Finally, if your bust is thinner than your hips (morphology in A), also bet on a loose form of fluid fabric, which hides small curves. In this case, allow yourself to enhance your chest with a nice neckline.

What white dress for what look?
- For a bohemian look: a single word, lace. Opt for a crocheted model at the chest that reveals your skin in transparency. The small ruffled short sleeves give the dress a wise style. Depending on your morphology, opt for a loose shape or closer to the body and side length, if the length is perfect in the day, a shorter model is needed in the evening. To perfect your outfit, bet on the accessories: a flowery headband, a long necklace and a pair of sandals,
- For a casual chic look: it's the perfect style to choose a fluid fabric model. A straight shape allows not only all fantasies, such as lace or gathers on the sleeves for example, but also all accessories: a wide belt at the waist to feminize the silhouette, a pair of ballerinas or pumps with small heels , original jewelry, a little denim jacket to break the shape of the dress.
- For a working-girl look: the little white vintage inspired dresses are considered in the office. To avoid falling into bad taste, respect standards of length and cut. So, opt for a knee-length model, with a round neck if you have a strong chest, or a V-neck if your chest is less generous. Always bet on a thick and opaque fabric. Finally, forget the transparent lace. Choose a simple model, cotton, straight cut or curved to refine the size. Match this little white dress with simple beads or sequined jewelry and a nice pair of heels.

Fashion faux-pas to avoid
For a maximum of style, do not forget:
- To always choose an opaque fabric: the transparent white makes the outfit neglected.
- To avoid the total lace look at the risk of falling into the bridal effect ...
- To accessorize each white dress to avoid the nightgown look.
