Versatile Tunic Style Dresses For Sale

By Etta Bowen


Tunics are very versatile and can be worn for many different occasions by women of all ages, shapes and sizes. Most women have tunic style dresses in their closets. When buying these items, it is important for a woman to choose the style most flattering for her particular body shape. This should be the first consideration with colors and pattern also being chosen to conceal or reveal flaws and assets.

Tunics come in many different types and selection should be made to suit body shape. Someone with an hourglass figure can wear one which fits more tightly whereas someone who is apple shaped may need a looser one to conceal a tummy. An A-style item will help to disguise larger hips and thighs whilst a tightly clinging one cinched with a belt may help to give the impression of curves on a straight figure.

Fabric plays an important part too and should be chosen with various considerations in mind such as the occasion, comfort and again, body type. Cotton is popular and is always cool and comfortable. Silk is elegant and suitable for evening wear. A linen is also cool and classy too.

Length also has an effect on the success of the garment. One that ends at the thighs can be quite unflattering, particularly on a tall person. They usually look better in one which sits just above the knee. A short person can look more dumpy in one that is too long.

Body shapes are so different and this inevitably means that what looks great on one person does not suit another. Someone with a larger stomach will often need to select a looser cut to conceal it. Someone with an hourglass figure is able to wear a close fitting style. An A-line shape often looks best on women with larger hips and thighs.

The proper accessories can do a great deal to give this garment more versatility. The color, size and style of pendants or necklaces instantly transform its appearance. Other types of accessories that can change the look are belts, shoes, and handbags. The only shoes that do not look good with these garments are athletic shoes.

A woman should avoid wearing loose or baggy pants with these garments because they can make her look heavier. Tighter fitting pants balance out a looser, flowing top. Leggings or skinny jeans often compliment such a garment best when it comes to layering.

These garments are versatile enough to be worn during the day, at night, to the office and as evening wear. Most women can find ways to wear them successfully, no matter what their age or body type. Careful selection of style, pattern and color according to body type ensures success. These items can be bought from many stores today, including those found online. With the wide selection available at these stores, it helps to filter a selection and this can be done by making choices such as brand, color, size or price.
