If the former imply a complex cut of expensive, dense fabrics with a closed neck and shoulders, then the latter are light air outfits, available both in price and in the style of choice, for almost every woman. Over the past year, the “Russian style” has taken the lead in social events. No one else needs to be convinced that Russian silhouettes are feminine and romantic. Therefore, this season, along with open dresses to the floor, the leading position on sales and self-tailoring took the style "peasant dress".
This style has distinctive details that remain the same: open neck, shoulders and chest, accentuated waist and a fluffy skirt. Dresses in this style are sewn mainly from simple fabrics, such as cotton or thick viscose. The color scheme is often monophonic, less often - ethnic Slavic motifs are used, for example, a bright floral print. The main emphasis in the style of "young lady-peasant" is placed on the waist, which is isolated using a belt, drawstring or belt. To dilute the image and add a drop of modernity to it, you can choose a belt from the collection of the current year.
Evening dress with open shoulders
For an evening out, a dress with bare shoulders fits perfectly. It is only necessary to choose the appropriate style for a particular event. For example, it could be a classic black cocktail dress-case just below the knees, or an elegant red dress on the floor of a silk flowing fabric that completely covers the chest, but exposes the shoulders and back. This season is very popular models with a corset base and a fluffy skirt of medium length with drooping shoulders. Following the fashionable protocol, an evening dress with open shoulders is worn without a bra. It should fit well, not be too tight and defiantly short. In other words, the evening dress is designed to add elegance to the female image, so that even in a bar with friends she would present herself as the queen of the catwalk.

The most popular models of recent years are the silhouette of a mermaid, a case (up to the knee), and, of course, a princess dress with a flounce skirt, which is in any wedding salon in different variations and all sorts of colors.
Historically, a wedding is a stage of transition, a change from one social role to another. A kind of farewell to the girlish carelessness, teenage pigtails and open dresses. After the wedding, women at all times preferred dresses to the floor with a closed neck of moderate color schemes. Therefore, the wedding ceremony is an excellent occasion to sparkle with graceful fragile shoulders to this day.
Ideas for obese women
It is believed that dresses with bare shoulders look elegant only on fragile girls with an hourglass figure and protruding clavicles, because it makes the upper part of the silhouette visually wider. But it is not. The signal "stop" can only be massive shoulders, which pull all the attention on themselves.
On owners of appetizing forms, models of a V-shaped variant look most seductive. It is better to select the size of the neckline in moderation so that the decollete is not flashy and does not distract from the image as a whole.
Supporting bra is a must, otherwise even the most chic outfit of quality material will look ridiculous. A good solution would be a dress with a high waist, which will cover the stomach and other figure flaws.
Another image in which a full lady will look luxurious and bold - an elongated shirt with bare shoulders, which is complemented by just one belt. This is a lightweight summer version that perfectly models the figure and does not require anything other than seamless underwear and a good pedicure.
