How to wear a dress with lurex?

Lurex, the favorite of the inveterate fashionistas of the eighties, returns to the catwalks. And from there - straight to the clothing stores! Now you can again afford to shine in the literal sense of the word. What to wear it with?

Rules for Wearing Lurex Dresses

The image of a star of a disco-era village club has somewhat spoiled the reputation of clothes with shiny threads. But the rehabilitation of Lurex took place due to its ability to take any kind. Including - elegant and stylish. In addition, light-reflecting fabrics can adjust the shape of the figure!

Any lady will find her model among dresses with lurex. Choosing a shining thing, you need to consider:

  • a reason for putting it on;
  • age;
  • features of the figure.

Important! Stylists say that this season there isn’t much lurex, and you can put on such an outfit even for breakfast. But how will a school teacher conduct a lesson on a typical day? Business style clearly does not allow such liberties!

Glitter is one of the attributes of the holiday, and these cases are relatively rare. However, on the day preceding the holiday and weekend, clothing with shiny threads, but of moderate cut, seems appropriate.

There are many options - from mini to dresses to the floor, with and without sleeves, with a blank collar and a bold neckline. Best of all young, tall and slender - any model will look advantageous on them.

Mid-aged models with a belt or belt are suitable for women aged . Color should be moderate.

Important! A massive waist requires a belt of medium width: a narrow one will be lost, and a wide one will emphasize excessive splendor. Corrective underwear will help to look slimmer.

The choice of style depends on the type of figure:

  1. “Hourglass”: such a profitable appearance allows you to choose the most feminine models that emphasize the waist;
  2. “Pear”: a massive collar or stole will add volume to the top, and a skirt expanding from the hips will visually narrow the bottom;
  3. “Inverted triangle”: everything is exactly the opposite with respect to the previous case: a light top - a massive bottom, a V-neck and a flared skirt are also good;
  4. Rectangle: voluminous models are ideal for the type of sweater dresses, with an emphasis on beautiful legs with a mini.

Reflective fabrics have the ability to visually enlarge any size, and the impression can be either improved or worsened . So, you can add the volume of a small chest using a collar-collar (the opposite situation requires a smooth style!). Loose silhouettes will hide overly curvy shapes.

Features of the combination of shades

Shining people are moody. Things are the same: they cannot get along with inappropriate colors.

Golden colors are “friends” with warm shades: beige and sand, yellow and ivory. The silver gamut is good in company with cool colors: ashen and blue, lilac purple and pearl gray.

The easiest way to make a set with black and white : noble black and gold, unearthly white and gold, airy white and silver, contrasting black and silver - any of the ensembles will not let you get lost!

Important! Glitter is so striking that it is necessary to remember moderation! You should not choose more than two prints in one ensemble.

Other colors are also combined in terms of “warmth” or “coldness”: we select orange, pink, or lilac in pair for red (cold or warm). Blue is combined with all heavenly shades. For starters, green is also evaluated for heat and cold.

We also take into account our color type: dark-skinned skin is well tinted with gold, light skin with silver. The image of a beautiful blonde in a gold outfit is as famous as a sultry brunette in an emerald!

What shoes and accessories can I add?

Since additional accents are not required for the “soloist” with Lurex, we choose partners who do not violate the overall impression. Two options are suitable:

  • shoes and accessories of more modest textures are selected for the dress, which does not exclude contrasts: a denim jacket, a leather jacket, sneakers, boots with thick soles, knitted hats;
  • several brilliant accessories add shine along with shine: shoes or sequin boots, massive metal jewelry, a clutch with metal shine - the main thing is not to put on everything sparkling at once.

Important! Things selected for a lurex dress should not cause thoughts of luxury: furs and lace, velvet and silk will come in handy in other sets. Screaming makeup, manicure and overly intricate hairstyles are inappropriate.

Examples of bows with a dress with lurex

  1. Golden dress with a black jacket of strict cut, classic shoes: moderately bright and noble.
  2. A-line dress, mini lengths, ankle boots, an extra long down jacket with a fur collar - luxury under the guise of everyday life!
  3. A long sweater dress, black tights, and classic shoes are also suitable for workdays with a lax boss to the dress code.
  4. Dress-shirt, cardigan, high boots - lightness and grace!
