Purple Dresses

Purple dresses are not a regular seen occurrence during any occasion but there is no reason why you cannot wear a beautiful purple dress as they are alluring, flattering and certainly make a great statement. Purple is more versatile than many would think, from open back long flowing gowns of a darker purple in satin finish to a strappy summer dress in a lighter, pastel shade of purple you can find so many great purple dresses.


Cuts and style

There are so many cuts and styles for purple dresses, when you think of purple you think of long, flowing formal Tony Bowls style gowns but there are so many other types of dresses you can choose. Other cuts and styles that work well with purple dresses are above the knee cocktail dresses and wide strap knee length summer dresses for everyday use.

With any cut and style of purple dress it is important that the cut and style is accentuated with the correct accessories to ensure that the design is shown off to its full potential, for this reason you need to think accessories as well as cut and style.


Accessories

Accessories are nearly as important as the dress you’re wearing and this is never as important as when you are wearing purple dresses. Purple Terani dresses are eye catching but wearing the wrong accessories with a purple dress can literally be damaging to the image you are trying to attain.

The first thing to think about with a purple dress is the shoes. It’s hard to get the right shoes for a purple dress as sometimes having purple shoes can be overdoing it, now dependent on the occasion you can go for something bold such as leopard print shoes but generally the best option is a black pair of strappy shoes. The reason black strappy shoes are the best option with a purple dress is because they won’t be too noticeable and will let the dress do the talking.

After the shoes, you should think jewelry and for a purple dress nothing looks better than silver. If you are in a sleek evening number then refined and classy jewelry is the choice to go for, something like a bracelet and necklace set finished off with a nice pair of silver earrings. For a more general daytime purple dress you can have silver bangles and a trendier silver necklace, maybe even a silver ring all topped off with chunkier silver earrings.

The final thought for accessories is the handbag, this is the one thing where you can go purple to go with the purple dress you have. Depending on the event you can go for a small purse style purple handbag or a larger daytime purple handbag, either way ensure the clasp is silver to go with your jewelry.


Figure Hugging

Purple dresses certainly need to have a certain fit to be carried off to perfection, especially if you are going for the brighter and louder shades of purple.
Purple can be worn through all the seasons with different shades suiting the different times of year, this being said it is important to ensure that the purple dress you are going to wear not only fits well but is figure hugging too. If you don’t get a figure hugging Jovani dress and end up with something a little loose on the body you could end up looking heavier than you actually are something no woman wants!


Where to wear a purple dress

As mentioned a purple dress is very versatile in both the type of event and time of year you wear it, below is a few ideas of where you can wear a purple dress:
Bridesmaid dress – Brides are in white and what better way to show off the bride and the bridesmaids at the same time by having contrasting colors such as purple.  A purple La Femme bridesmaid dress can come in almost any shade of purple and can still fit the occasion as it gives that classy color to make the wedding feel like that special occasion it is.

Cocktail dress – Class is what you’re after and a purple dress of a deeper tone and in a shiny finish is what you need to achieve that. Purple dresses shimmer and sparkle in the dark and this is why purple dresses are perfect for cocktail parties. For a cocktail dress you want something that shows your shoulders and finishes above the knee. 

Prom dress – Be the center of attention at your prom with a sleek purple dress that is either knee length or full length. With the right purple dress everyone will be watching!

Day out – Purple dresses can really make your day out special. In the summer months you can go for a brighter strappy number that flows around the bottom, with the colder months you can go for a more figure hugging dress in a lighter, pastel tone of purple.


Colors

Purple is versatile as there are so many shades and finishes to purple that all work. Whether you go for a loud statement such as a bright purple long gown or a more subtle above the knee pastel purple dress there are so many choices on offer its important to get the shade and finish right.

If you find the right purple dress that comes in the perfect shade for the event you are going to, your skin tone and body shape then you can really make everyone turn their attention to you when you walk through the door.


Fit to Perfection

Purple is not everyone’s first choice, but it is a color that stands out and can really turn heads so purple dresses are a must have in any ladies wardrobe. When choosing a purple dress it’s important to ensure that it fits perfectly, if you don’t find a well-fitting purple dress you could end up ruining the look you’re trying to achieve. Purple dresses not only make a definitive statement, they are versatile, sexy and you will catch everyone’s attention rather than blending in with all the black and red dresses on show.
