Fashionable striped summer dresses. Striped dresses for plus size women

Confidence and even self-confidence have become the motto of summer 2016. You can enjoy new silhouettes and original details, be discreet or feminine, playful and desirable, or you can wear several unfinished items of clothing at once or a fairly worn one, and become a grunge princess... In fashion 2016 freedom of styles and images reigns.

Dresses spring-summer 2016 and fashion trends season

This season, one of the most powerful trends is nudity and with it, . Contrasting combinations of colors and textures, a mixture of prints and fabrics, vintage charm, frills, ruffles, folds, lace - all this remains on the catwalk, and therefore in our wardrobes.

Asymmetry and mixing of styles allow you to wear everything, and how you feel comfortable. Flying trains, multi-layered various options when one thing doesn’t go well with the other, bare shoulders and more... Designers convince us that this is a must-have. Each of them strives to surprise the audience in any way, because designers are more afraid of the public’s indifference than their indignation. But if you strive for beauty and elegance, then look at the models that Militta has chosen for you.

fashionable dresses 2016 - models and cuts

The cut is dominated by open shoulders, deep necklines, flowing and flying fabrics with numerous cuts that demonstrate the beauty and attractiveness of the female body. The eternally young and cheerful A-line silhouette is repeated from season to season. Many cutting trends from last season have been preserved: cutouts on the shoulders, one-shoulder, one-sleeve models, Lolita dresses, wing sleeves, tulip dresses, dresses in antique style.

As for the silhouettes that designers prefer, this question is not easy to answer. Asymmetry and layering in the cut create those features when different silhouettes are combined with each other, for example, a straight silhouette with full skirt, and fitted - with an asymmetrical train or torn hem. Chiffon trains flutter with every step, and at the same time expose their owner.

Double skirts and dresses over skirts or skirts over trousers, or bloomers - all this rustles, flows, sparkles, creating pomp and volume. This is not the first time that layering has been used in cutting, but this time the issue is being resolved radically. Layers of fabrics shift, float on top of each other, forming trains and “tails”.

The hem can fall to the floor on one side, and rise to ultra-mini on the other. Unusual combinations of length, proportions and textures of fabrics are contrasted. Somewhere geometry reigns, and somewhere there is complete chaos. Shimmering and sparkling transparent fabrics either float in the air or are layered one above the other, creating opulence.

Mini, midi, maxi - they all easily fit into one look and in our wardrobe, just skillfully combine them with other accessories.

The lingerie style with a half-covered body is combined with the demonstration of those toiletries that were previously under the dress, now they are on the dress. Have you forgotten the full petticoats that were fashionable more than 50 years ago? If you didn’t know about this, then it’s time to get acquainted - fluffy petticoats with frills and bows are no longer petticoats...

Flowers, ruffles, frills, folds and a bright palette will serve as good decor for A-line dresses. Many A-silhouettes are made in folk national style.

Fashionable dresses 2016 and color palette

Here, designers offer scope for your imagination. And yet, reviewing the 2016 dress collections, Militta discovered that white appears in all collections. But white is simply a must in the summer, you say. Undoubtedly. Therefore, let’s decide, what colors among all the others are appearing more and more often on the catwalk? A combination of blue, white, red - in different versions, green, especially green shades in prints.

Anteprima, Luisa Beccaria
Ralph Lauren, Hermes

It is impossible to bypass the Armani collection, which tells us pink, tangerine and coral, blue, purple and gray shades. I have already noticed the chaos of silhouettes and cuts in many collections. In Armani's collections, the simplicity of the styles is compensated by a skillful combination of color shades.

Emporio Armani

Black color, despite the hot summer, remains in demand both among designers and in our wardrobe. The black and white geometry in the collection demonstrates how close to ideal shapes can be achieved. When using this range, you need to take into account all your advantages and disadvantages in your figure, so as not to achieve excess volume. To the palette bright colors should include tangerine color, iridescent color spots, green. The bright palette includes collections by Idan Cohen, Pamella Roland, Holly Fulton, Paul Smith and many others.

One of fashionable colors– the color of noble silver, which can be found both as molten and as if glowing with the smallest sparks.

Let's see which striped dresses are fashionable in the 2016 season?

Striped Beach Dresses. Of course, first of all you should pay attention to beach wardrobe models.

Our photo selection includes current dresses striped, which are perfect for overweight women. It's time to dispel the myth that stripes are not a suitable print for plus size options!

What is the strip silent about?

This print is a real treasure for girls who want to visually correct their figure.

There are several rules that will tell you how to correctly use these secret properties in your images. And this is not the familiar mantra “horizontal print makes you look fat, but vertical print makes you slim.” It turns out that something completely different is important.

If the strip is large, then in any case it will visually fill out. Moreover, its direction and location do not matter.
A small and frequent stripe has exactly the opposite property and its effect on a full figure can be described as positive. The picture below, which compares 2 prints, will help you visually evaluate this effect.

The color of the outfit also plays an important role. A dark stripe on a light fabric is inferior in terms of slimming properties to light lines on a dark background.
The contrasting line located in the center of the outfit is wonderfully slimming. She visually collects the figure and significantly transforms it. But the contrasting stripes on the sides have the opposite effect and visually expand the silhouette.

Many fashionistas are familiar with the concept of a “smart dress”. This model features wide contrasting panels on the sides that create the desired contours of the figure. Also, with full parameters, diagonal lines intersecting at the waist work great, which perfectly hide the protruding belly and bring the silhouette closer to the hourglass type.

Choosing the perfect dress primarily depends on individual characteristics figures. So, ladies with large breasts are recommended to choose a model with diamond-shaped stripes. If a fashionista has broad shoulders, it makes sense to find a dress with a plain bodice and a hem with horizontal lines. And if you have curvy hips, you should choose an outfit with a striped top and a plain bottom.
Alternating diagonal stripes that converge in the center in the shape of the letter V is another good solution for full figure.

Stylish models

The 2019 season will not be without stripes – almost all designers agree on this. We chose current models summer dresses striped, which are perfect for overweight women.

Among the fashionable styles, a wrap dress is distinguished. This cut gracefully emphasizes the waist and décolleté – the strong point of many plus-size fashionistas. Wrap dresses can be with or without a belt - both options are equally relevant.

The shirt dress is another fashionable favorite of this summer, which suits ladies of any size.

This new product can be adopted by girls who like to create images with a twist. Modern fashion suggests combining a shirtdress or a model with a slit in tandem with jeans. This look looks bold and fresh - just what you need for a summer mood.

Dresses with flirty slits are also trending now. This technique creates additional verticality in the image, which noticeably slims the figure and lengthens the legs.

The classic case model is ideal for girls who adhere to business style clothes. Pay attention to the alternation of prints in this dress - vertical lines lengthen the silhouette, and descending diagonal stripes are responsible for the visual formation of a beautiful waist.

Long striped dresses are especially impressive. These loose-fitting outfits are ideal for creating beach looks, as well as for walking around the city. Model in greek style, with a slit or open shoulders will become the basis of the image for a romantic meeting.

The charm of summer holidays is conveyed linen dresses and striped sundresses. They go great with hats and straw bags and wedge or low-top sandals. Nowadays, linen outfits in muted natural shades are at the peak of popularity.

Interesting! Fashionable linen dresses are perfect for overweight women over 40 years old, due to their environmental friendliness, safety and comfort.

Vertical striped outfits are slimming - that's a fact. However, the designers came up with stylish way, which enhances this effect. A row of buttons along the entire length of the dress is exactly what will benefit a girl with a full figure.

Summer is a great opportunity to try on the brightest and most cheerful outfits. Now the trend is not only graphic black and white stripes, but also a cheerful alternation of multi-colored lines. If you've been looking for a dress that lifts your mood, this is it!

The definite trend of the season is blue and white striped outfits. Red, muted green, pink and orange colors are also relevant.

A favorite technique of designers is a combination of different prints in one outfit. So, a stripe can easily make friends with a checkered pattern or flowers, or lines in different directions can alternate in one dress.

This combination allows you to make maximum use of the corrective capabilities of prints, and narrow the figure in the right place and increase it in the right place.

It doesn't suit me

Striped colors, by their nature, are quite capricious and sometimes they can not work in favor of a fashionista. To prevent such a failure, study models that are not suitable for a full figure and know the enemy by sight.

Flimsy knitwear can highlight all the flaws of a figure, and even a vertical stripe is powerless against this property. This combination of print and fabric does not mask, but rather emphasizes imperfections due to the curved effect. Only women who, on the contrary, want to emphasize their luxurious forms can afford such a technique.

A wide horizontal stripe makes you look hopelessly fat.

If you are short, wearing a striped dress is considered taboo. big size midi length. Particularly unsuccessful are models with full skirts, which reduce height.

The corrective properties of a striped print are, of course, good, but the strength of the color alone is often not enough. Harmonious image It will work not only if you want to hide shortcomings, but also if you want to emphasize your advantages. The perfect dress should show off your strengths, be it a beautiful neckline, slender legs or beautiful wrists. The right style will take care of this.

If as a base fashionable bow If you choose a striped item, make sure that the rest of the components are monochromatic. If the print is multi-colored, it is advisable to stick to one of the shades of this pattern when choosing accessories.

A striped dress will easily become the central element of an image in nautical style, so relevant in the summer season. To support this theme, you need to stick to a characteristic palette - white, blue, light blue and red.

Stylists suggest that fat girls Too small or, on the contrary, oversized bags are not recommended. It is always wiser to opt for medium-sized accessories.

Long dangling earrings go perfectly with this outfit. Such accessories have the remarkable ability to create another vertical line in the image and lengthen the silhouette.
A dress with thin lines looks great with neat, unobtrusive accessories. A larger print requires more massive embellishments.
If it gets colder outside, you can add it to a striped dress leather jacket or a leather jacket - the image will only benefit from this.

We hope we were able to convince you that striped dresses are a wonderful find for overweight women both in their 20s and over 50. It allows you not only to look stylish, but also to correct your figure.

A turtleneck is a real wardrobe treasure for the cool season. To make the look with it flawless, take care of the density of the texture and smooth linen. Women with curves are advised to add another layer to the turtleneck, creating a vertical look.
