Get party dress inspiration from New York Fashion Week

It’s the seventh day of New York fashion week. We have seen so many gorgeous clothes on the runway during this fashion week. In this post, I would list some Spring/Summer 2016 trends I really love. I’m quite sure you can find lots of dressing inspiration for the coming party season of 2015. Read on for details.

Color to try

Seaform Serene: This season, designers looked to the ocean for color palette inspiration with aqua blues, bottom-of-the-ocean navys, and sea foam green.

White: Spring is all about moving away from cozy knits and warming layers, and into lighter colors and fabrics, so it's no surprise that a head-to-toe, all-white look is a trend. From mesh sweatshirts paired with above-the-knee skirts to long dresses with matching ankle-strap heels, white is hands down the season's standout color.

Embellishment trend

Leaf prints: While florals may not be considered groundbreaking for spring, there was no shortage of greenery-inspired prints on matching sets, cozy toppers, and even evening dresses.

Fringe Details: Rather than a head-to-toe fringe frenzy, we saw the trimming in the elegant details, from strappy shoes to swinging dresses.

Trending Silhouette

A-Cute Angles: Designers know their angles and proved it with sharp, triangular shapes in oversized silhouettes. They showcased enormous sleeves in plastic, mesh, leather, and silk.

Waist-Ed: Structured suiting gets a dash of femininity with kimono-like, wrap-around belts. All across the runways, everything from jumpsuits to robe coats were cinched at the waist.

Accessory

Sculptural earrings: By the second day of fashion week, there had already been bucket hats, fishnets and furry shoes on the runways. But one accessory that stood out among the rest were the big statement earrings at a handful of shows. Sculptural earrings are your perfect choices if you wish to make a bold fashion statement.

Favorite wedding dress trend: Illusion cap sleeve

Look no further than wedding dresses with illusion designs if you want a feminine yet modest look on your big day. The illusion trend has been popular for so many years.

Here are reason why this dress style is so popular.

Lady like illusion wedding gowns were seen everywhere on bridal runways these years. Many famous bridal fashion brands launched gorgeous and romantic bridal gowns with illusion details. And illusion sleeved dresses are the most common seen dress styles. The illusion designs provide coverage without sacrificing fashion, the neckline trend is also fit for any type of ceremony. They also keep the figure-flattering gown feeling feminine and sweet. Illusion cap sleeves are a fit for a romantic or glamorous bride. This style is a subtle way to incorporate a hint of sexiness into your wedding day.

The cap sleeves work the strong shoulder trend, creating the illusion of a broadened shoulder. Cap sleeve wedding dresses have undergone a facelift and now have a modern, elegant and trendy look. Brides used to opt for cap sleeves in order to show modesty. While they can still be used to show a bride’s demureness, they are now used to show the bride’s fashionable style. Feminine fabrics and glitzy accents give the traditional cap sleeve a more modern look. Lace, beads, sequins and tulle are all trendy choices for the beautifully flattering cap sleeve.

Illusion cap sleeves can change a wedding dress dramatically by adding charm, flair, and a touch of femininity.

How to choose evening gown for athletic figure

Working out everyday becomes more and more popular for modern women. And it’s quite easy for women who work out often to gain muscle. Muscular body is quite healthy. However, women with too much muscle tend to look less feminine. In fact, you can still look very sexy as long as you choose the right clothes. The following are some idea on how to choose evening gown for athletic body type.

Draped dresses that nip in at the waist is a great choice since draping and ruching can add just a bit of volume, while a cinched mid section gives the illusion of a supremely feminine hourglass shape. Add a simple belt if your dress does not have such designs. Athletic body types are well-defined and toned. Even if your shape is muscular or thicker, you can create the illusion of curves wherever you'd like. For example, you may choose a dress in a slight tulip shape to play up your hips and toned thighs. Plain dresses won't increase your feminine appeal as will something in delicate silk crepe. Don't forget that feminine doesn't always mean flowers. Look for feminine prints like polka dots, stripes, or other understated geometric shapes.

It's possible to look pounds thinner with the right shoes. Wear shoes that are long and lean, not chunky. A chunky wedge will accentuate your muscular build if you have athletic legs. So avoid clunky shoe. If you want to hide your strong upper arms, opt for dresses with sleeves. Choose a tulip skirt or a silhouette that adds some volume to your lower body if you wish to appear curvier. Flatter your calves with a traditional pump and a slightly thicker heel. If you'd like to highlight tiny ankles, wear t-strap or ankle strap heels with a thin heel.

By choosing styles and silhouettes that create feminine curves and highlight toned limbs, athletic women can feel just as confident in a slinky dress as they do in their gym shorts. Find your dream dresses at Blackfive.com.

You may go for U plunge bra if you are in such style. U plunge bra is specially designed for this type of clothing.
