If the denim dress has a wide choice of cuts and models, there is one that does not leave the trend of jeans:the shirt dress! Shirt version open to the bottom, to the waist or to the hips, it is as timeless as it is comfortable. Even better, it is available simply by changing accessories, alternately rock, sport, classic or casual.
To choose a denim dress, prefer long sleeves, which go up in summer and cover for winter. Beware of open-to-the-bottom shirt dresses, especially with press studs:they present the risk of an untimely opening, and rarely desirable. The perfect model? A shirt shape, with opening up to the waist or even to the hips, long or three-quarter sleeves.
Are you tired of the shirt dress? Explore the range of denim dresses that change your style! In the front row, the bustier dress, guaranteed retro pin-up effect. Take the time to try it on, however, to control the ease and softness of the bustier. The tunic dress, meanwhile, delights lovers of comfort, displaying a straight or flared shape, but loosely fitted. Choose it above the knee and with short or three-quarter sleeves, to compensate for its width.
As for opting for a versatile dress, bet on simplicity! The more sober the denim dress, the easier it is to play with its volumes and accessories. The better, the more timeless it is! The right shoes, a belt and a scarf, jewelry or a bag, a jacket or tights... you'll find it much easier to reinvent a dress without external pockets or complicated details.
Model of flexibility, the denim dress adapts without difficulty to the changes of season. Boots and tights under a big cardigan in winter, sleeveless with belt and sandals in summer… she can do anything, or almost! The real choice comes down to the material:good jeans can sometimes lack flexibility.
If you dream of a summer dress, light and breathable, bet without complex on imitation denim. Many dresses in Lyocell® or Tencel® have a denim look, but in a wrinkle-resistant, vegetal and feather-light fabric! For those who prefer real denim, make sure that the fabric incorporates a percentage of elastane, otherwise the dress may be uncomfortable. Only poorly fitted shirt dresses or tunics can afford to skip them.
Do you plan to wear your dress next to your skin? In the case of strapless dresses, in particular, check the finishes and interior seams. Real denim has thick seams that can irritate sensitive skin.
Finally, think denim shade:black, raw, faded, colored? Again, in the case of the denim dress, it is better to opt for sobriety. Avoid "used" effects and prefer uniformly faded, raw, gray or black denim, you will keep your dress much longer!
