How to Wear a Strapless Summer Dress



As the

weather


turns warm, strapless dresses will be a strong fashion trend. If you want to look your best in this revealing type of dress, give some of these tips a try:









Step
1



Make sure it fits.

Fit is critical with a strapless
summer
dress


. You don't want it so loose that you have to pull on the top of it to keep it in place. If it's too tight, it's going to look and feel uncomfortable. It should firmly grip the top of your bust without revealing too much cleavage. Keep it loose enough through the hips and thighs to walk comfortably. Keep the hemline at least knee length. A short strapless dress is overkill.




Step
2



Don't overpower with accessories

Keep the accessories light and simple. You need a necklace with a strapless dress but it shouldn't be overpowering. A simple beaded choker or a single strand of beads with a small pendant should be sufficient. Large chunky necklaces can overpower a strapless summer dress.




Step
3



Add some skin color.

If you're pale, apply a layer of self tanner to add some color. Super pale isn't flattering with a strapless dress.




Step
4



Bring along a wrap.

If you'll be attending a conservative event, wear a blazer or a fashionable cardigan over your strapless dress. It's also nice to have one handy in case you get cold.







Tips & Warnings









When you're trying on strapless summer dresses, be sure to walk around, bend over, and lift your arms repeatedly to make sure the dress fits properly and is comfortable. You don't want your breasts to come spilling over the top.
