Brown clothes are preferred by self-confident persons, firmly standing on their feet and soberly looking at the world. In other words, those who are in harmony with the surrounding reality. A brown dress will help you feel calmer and more confident, which is why this is a great choice for important events in life.

The brown color palette includes many shades - from beige to chocolate. Among such a wealth of choice, girls with the most diverse types of appearance will surely find that shade of brown color that suits them.



Shades
Let's get acquainted in more detail with the variety of shades of this beautiful and noble color.

Light coloured
Light shades include the following shades of brown: golden brown, cream, taupe, wheat, terracotta, walnut, caramel, ocher and the like.





This color scheme is suitable mainly for warm color types. Light brown dresses do not belong so clearly to the business style of clothing. Warm, soft colors are able to emphasize the femininity and romance of the image, so a dress in a light brown color scheme can be worn on a date or at some festive event.



Dark
Dark shades of brown include: black-brown, chocolate, chestnut, coffee, red-brown, copper, umber, sepia.




Dark brown color is more strict and restrained, so it is often chosen for business suits, school uniforms, etc. A dress of a dark shade of brown is a great option for work, especially if you have to rotate in business circles.



If we are talking about an elegant dress, then it must be sewn from a beautiful, unusual fabric or have an original cut.

Length
Long and luxuriant, short and tight-fitting - from the variety of styles of brown dresses presented by designers in recent times, they simply run their eyes. Let's look at the most popular options together.
Long to the floor
A long brown dress can be both austere and romantic. For festive events, you should choose a dress in lighter shades, although with a spectacular decor or style, a dark brown dress will be a great choice.



For the tailoring of long evening dresses, glossy fabrics are often used, and in the case of brown, this technique is more than justified. Glittering under artificial light, the fabric perfectly smoothes out some restraint and coldness of brown color.




Mature women will certainly prefer a more elegant outfit for Cinderella's ball gown. We advise such ladies to stay on a narrowed dress with a spectacular neckline or a beautiful neckline on the back.

Midi
Brown dresses of midi length depending on the style can be both office and official, and seductive.



This color is so multifaceted that dresses in this color scheme are the basic garment on the basis of which diametrically opposite images can be created.

A short
A brown dress with a skirt above the knees will cause many people to associate with a school uniform. Some girls like this comparison, and they are happy to complement this outfit with a snow-white collar.


The other half of fashionistas will prefer to abandon such an image, so as not to look like a schoolgirl from Soviet times.

For a party, feel free to choose flirty models with an asymmetric neckline or transparent inserts.



A short brown dress in itself looks very concise. But in this simplicity lies grace and elegance. It is recommended to revive the brown mini dress with catchy, stylish accessories, always contrasting in color. A belt of bright leather, large earrings or a necklace, an unusual handbag - a pair of such details will make the image thoughtful and memorable.

A business dress with a short skirt should have a cut as simple as possible and be closed on top.


Combinations
With black
Black and brown are rather gloomy and dark colors, so this combination is not perceived very well. The outfit in dark brown tones is good for a working day, but sometimes it is suitable for a festive evening. Fans of this color pair can be advised to combine black with a light shade of brown, for example, with dark beige, caramel or terracotta. So the combination of colors becomes more contrasting and expressive.



It should be noted that the combination of black + brown was very fond of Yves Saint Laurent's use in his clothing collections.

With white
What associations do you have in your combination of brown and white? Surely, something delicious: ice cream with chocolate syrup, coffee with creamy foam, chocolate cake with cream, etc. So, the combination of brown + white looks very "tasty."

In general, the image in this color scheme is full of confidence and calm. If this combination seems too boring to you, do not be afraid to dilute it with accessories of bright colors, such as turquoise or raspberry.


With beige
Beige is considered one of the varieties of brown, so together they form a very harmonious pair. The outfit in brown and beige colors is perfect for the cold season, when you really want warmth and coziness.



Based on this color pair, you can create a soft, comfortable look that will look great even without interspersing bright spots.

If the ensemble in brown and beige tones seems too dull, you can dilute it with golden jewelry.

With blue
Oddly enough, but the "cold" blue color and the "warm" brown are perfectly combined with each other. When combining these two colors in clothes, it is important to observe one single rule: the lighter the shade of brown, the darker the brown tone should be. In the opposite direction, this rule also applies: for a dark brown dress, you should choose accessories in light blue. Experiment with different shades to find the most beautiful combination.



With red
The presence of brown and red colors in clothes at the same time may seem to some people to be a very strange, unjustifiable decision. In fact, if you choose the right shades in this color pair, you can create a very unusual, memorable image.

Soft, light shades of brown, such as beige or coffee with milk, go well with red. The red elements should not be too bright, it is better to adhere to dark, muted shades, such as wine.



With yellow
If you look closely at the color palette, you will see that yellow and brown colors are in the neighborhood. This means that they are close in their characteristics and combine well with each other. The combination of these two colors looks very summer-like, even if sunny, yellow tones are present in the outfit to a minimum. In the color pair with yellow, both light and dark shades of brown look good. As for the yellow color, you can safely experiment with the entire palette of shades: from light lemon to mustard.



With green
Brown and green are the most natural combination that nature itself has given us. Grass growing on the ground, tree branches covered with leaves are just the first associations that come to mind when mentioning this color pair. An outfit in brownish-green colors cannot look defiant, it always looks very noble. True, in such an ensemble green most often dominates.


For a brown dress, you can select accessories of different shades of green, including rare and unusual ones, for example, olive, emerald, coniferous, etc.
Variations
With animal print
Dresses with animal print almost every fashion season again returns to the catwalks and store shelves. The greatest love among designers and fashionistas is, of course, a leopard print.
A dress with a leopard print is a weapon with which every girl can turn into a real seductress. For a less catchy, but still sensual image, you can choose an outfit in which the leopard print is present only fragmentary. Read more in the article about leopard dresses.

Leather and Suede
A dress made of leather (natural or artificial) is a rather bold decision. Not every girl will risk wearing a leather outfit, as this will certainly attract the attention of others. A brown leather dress should not be long, maximum to the middle of the knee. It is better if the dress is narrow and emphasizes the grace of your figure.



An alternative to such a dress is a suede outfit. Due to the features of the texture of the material, a girl in a suede dress does not look so aggressive, the image is softer.



Guipure, lace
A brown guipure dress is an option. Long or short, with a full skirt or tight-fitting - such a dress always looks elegant. Mature women love brown guipure dresses, but young girls in this outfit will look great if you choose the right style.


Young ladies should look at models with a fluffy skirt or dresses that fit the figure.

Dotted
Polka dot dresses were especially popular in the middle of the last century - our grandmothers also wore them with pleasure. A brown dress in white peas is a real classic of the time.



Today, clothing models with such a pattern are somewhat copying the fashion of past years, so they are associated with the retro style. To feel like a girl from the films of that time, you need to choose models with a fluffy skirt to the knees and, possibly, a flashlight sleeve.

The brown polka-dot dress became especially popular after the release of the film Beauty, in which the heroine of Julia Roberts was very feminine and elegant.

With sleeves
A brown dress with a sleeve, as a rule, acts as a variant of warm clothes for the autumn-winter season. This insulated dress made of wool or other dense material is the best way to stay feminine, even in cold weather.




However, when it comes to an idle event, it is better to give preference to other materials. Elegant dresses with long guipure sleeves are popular. Asymmetric models with only one sleeve look original.

Tights
Which tights to choose for a brown dress, depends on the shade of the outfit. If the dress is light brown, you should stop at dark tights - chocolate or even black. With a dark brown dress, it is better to wear light tights, for example, beige or milk shade. With a laconic dress of a simple cut, patterned tights will look spectacular.
Thin body tights are versatile and fit almost any look.



Do not forget about the bright accents: emerald green, orange or burgundy tights are perfect for along with brown tones for girls with a hint of shocking.


Shoes
A plain brown dress is an excellent occasion to showcase your most beautiful shoes. Black boats, of course, are almost always out of place, but high-heeled shoes with a leopard pattern or turquoise sandals with a brown dress will look much more interesting. Sandals and sandals are an option for light summer outfits. If the solemn event takes place in cold weather - complete the set with shoes with a closed toe or elegant boots.




Contrast color shoes are a great complement.

Accessories and jewelry
When choosing accessories for a brown dress, the main thing is to be guided by the principle of contrast. For dark dress you need to wear light jewelry and vice versa.

With a brown outfit, all shades of gold will look great, so you can just put on your favorite gold earrings or bracelet. Jewelry made of stones, for example, from turquoise or coral, is well suited to a brown dress. A leather belt and a handbag in a rich shade will be the final touch.




Do not forget that sophisticated designer dresses are self-sufficient. Do not overload the image with details.


Makeup
Stylists offer several makeup options for a brown dress. Most often, girls choose neutral solutions: makeup in brown, beige or golden tones.

Those who like bright accents can be advised with contrasting shades, for example, turquoise or pink. Colored shadows and eyeliner will not only emphasize the color of the eyes, but also refresh the image as a whole. If you prefer makeup in neutral colors, be sure to make at least a slight emphasis on the lips.
