Just because you are under 5.3' in height does not mean that you cannot look honestly remarkable and it most right on does not mean that you cannot wear a gorgeous cocktail dress.
There are so many endless varieties of cocktail dresses from handkerchief hemlines to fluffy skirts to frothy silhouettes. They're fun, flirty, playful and confident. 2011 is all about absorbing colors, absorbing prints and big frothy shirts with tight bodices. They do wonders for the frame thanks to their frilly skirts. But like any new fashion, there is an art to wearing it. Not every person can carry out the most recent trends with style and ease.
Women Belts
Here are a few dress choices for petites!
Asymmetrical hemlines:
Jagged hemlines, handkerchief hems and high-low hemlines are back with an roughly fine vengeance. This doesn't shape up (pun intended) to well on petites. It just makes us look tinier, especially if the jagged ends stop mid calf. The best way to carry off this style is to pick outfits with delicate jags instead of severe ones. Pick hemlines such that the bottom part of the skirt does not over shoot the knee. the asymmetrical hemline - especially the diagonal one is a petite's nightmare. As the hemline cuts across the thighs, the latter looks larger. Those with diminutive derrières would do quite well with this hemline though.
Halter Top Necklines:
The eternal favorite, be it petites or otherwise! Its especially flattering to those with a diminutive bust, since the halter straps cut across your shoulders, development them look wider. Deep neck halters are especially flattering to the bust, development it appear fuller. In addition the waist looks tinier and your legs longer. The added emphasis on the neck gives an illusion of length and an roughly swan like appearance. Halters are a sexy trend ans something I hope lasts for a long long time!
Flowing skirts:
I'd say think and rehearsal rational and good judgment while choosing these. There are plaenty available this season right from floral prints to self colored ones in chiffon, cotton and silk. Never opt for one with large print on it. Large print rarely suit diminutive women.
Belts:
Pick a cocktail dress with a belt. It's a great way to show off your narrow waist. Also, it accentuates the bust (for diminutive busted women). Cocktail dresses with belts, especially ruched satin, or wide ribbons suits diminutive women perfectly while simultaneously adding the required zing to the dress. A tiny warning though that no matter what kind of belt you pick, it will break the oneness of the dress, thus reducing the length of the dress. The best tip I can give you here is to pick a dress with a sash color that is very close to that of the dress.
Tassels:
Tassels have never ever been amiable with petites so tread cautiously. Bulgy hangings tend to make you look shorter and stockier. It looks like a baby trying on her mommy's clothes. (Yeah! The corollary is honestly that bad without the cuteness). If you honestly want to have something with tassels in your wardrobe, pick an outfit with ornate and delicate wisps of chiffon.
Sheaths:
The full length, solid colored sheath is an additional one great selection for you. It's a great selection away from the full circle skirt.
