BANGALORE: Are satin dresses in?
It’s neither in nor out – more than fabric a person’s style matters. Material should always be selected depending on the place and climate there.
Do you think satin
dresses look good?
Satin is a difficult fabric. Make sure you have your dress styled well else it might turn out to be a terrible choice.
Which body type according to you can
carry satin?
You need to be really slim to wear a satin dress. The material is so thin and smooth that even the tiniest bump on your body will be seen.
What are the different designs and styles for such dresses?
One can get lots of styling done on a satin dress. Sleeves is a strict no, instead off shoulder looks great. Satin gives a monotonous look so try mixing it with other materials like chiffon. Satin dresses also look nice with prints on it. If you are going for a plain dress try mixing it with other materials and get little texturing done. A big satin flower on one side looks amazing on a plain dress.
What is the right length according to you that should be carried in a satin dress?
Long dresses are a complete no. It’s a wrong choice made all together. Short satin dresses look good, I would suggest around three inches
above the knees,
is perfect.
What are the different colours one can choose for satin?
Dull colours are too boring so one should go for nice bright colours. You get beautiful colours in satin material. Black is a very obvious colour, so the young crowd can go for colours like salmon pink, turquoise, purple, etc.
How to accessorise when wearing a satin dress?
Accessories depends on the style of dress you are wearing. Satin gives a very elegant look, so putting on simple diamond earrings would do.
What kind of bags would you suggest?
Long bags do not go well with such dresses so carry a smart clutch. If you are wearing soft colours, a silver matte finish clutch works perfectly fine.
Which footwear goes best with these dresses?
Do not wear covered footwear, instead go for strappy heels. Black heels usually goes well with satin dresses. Bronze clutch with bronze footwear is another good option with deep bold colours. You can wear silver heels with soft and light colours along with a matte
finish clutch.
Any specific hairdo with you could recommend?
Hair style depends on the face cut of a person but I would suggest to keep a neat look. As satin gives a very elegant look it is always better to keep a clean well defined hairdo.
What kind of make-up should be done?
I feel little make-up or neutral look goes best. If you wear a nice dress with a good pair of footwear you can’t just avoid your face undone. To give a sharp look, emphasise your eyes and wear a light lipstick.
