Oscar de la Renta |
If you're looking to add a little romance to your life try a tea-length dress. Time to give the mini and maxi skirts a rest because the prim, yet proper and most fashionable hemline of all is back. This classic 50s style has made its comeback with a retro-meets-modern take. Tea-length frocks—which fall anywhere below the knee and above the ankle—are sweet, sophisticated, and totally on-trend this season.
The sumptuous and sensuous appeal of these full skirted dresses is found in everything from lace to organza to florals. The trumpet hem and unusual length on these dresses can give your cocktail looks a fun, flouncy kick. Less fancy than ballgowns, but more festive than mini dresses, tea-length frocks are ideal formal wear for women who like things a little demure, yet thoroughly modern.
Tea length dresses and skirts with a little volume at the bottom are good for ladies with a boyish figure. This hemline is very feminine as it shows off the right curves, without giving away too much. Anyone can pull off a sexy ensemble, but why not switch it up and go for a ladylike frock?
This season forgo the super-short threads in favor of classic silhouettes and longer hems for an instantly demure look. Try a style similar to this Dolce & Gabbana dress with an abbreviated length and sweetheart neckline, which keeps the tulle skirt and poofy shape from looking too precious.
Or choose a body-skimming ensemble, like this one from Alexander McQueen.
Whether you choose a bustier-and-bell-skirt number or opt for a long and lean silhouette, the tea-length trend is cup of tea.
