Dress with one sleeve - fashion asymmetry

For several years, the model of a dress with one sleeve has been a trendsetter. Chiffon and silk dresses of this style are in demand in the summer, and knitted dresses are very popular in winter. However, such dresses are not suitable for all women at all and are not worn for any reason. Let's discuss why one-sleeve outfits are interesting, who should wear them, and what kind of style they wear.

A dress with only one sleeve is classified as asymmetric outfit. They are chosen mainly for special occasions, since such dresses attract eyes and help to stand out from other beauties. In addition, such an original top of the dress shifts the emphasis from the bottom of the figure, which is suitable in cases where it is imperfect.

Most often, a dress with one sleeve is represented by monophonic models, since even without a bright print they are expressive and original. In addition, a multi-colored motif will distract attention from an interesting cut and affect the contrast with the skin. For the same reason, for such outfits, decor is used to a minimum.

Thin women should pay attention to tight-fitting outfits, and girls with fullness should pay attention to free models. If you have imperfect legs, you can hide their unattractiveness with a long dress with an asymmetric sleeve.

You should avoid dresses of this style in cases when:

• Your back is very wide and your shoulders are masculine.
• The skin on your hands looks saggy and flabby.
• Chest or back is covered with rashes.
• You have a large chest and without a bra it loses its shape.

The sleeve in the dress of this style can differ in its length, as well as in width. It can be both tight and long, and small, for example, in the form of a “wing”. There are options for a tight sleeve with a length slightly above the elbow, as well as a long and wide sleeve. Three quarters of the sleeves are also very common. By its location, a single sleeve can be either on the left or on the right side of the outfit.

The most common single-sleeve models are long evening dresses. They have a looser cut than in short tight dresses with an asymmetric sleeve.

In short dresses without one sleeve, you can often see other interesting details of the cut, for example, a neckline at the waist or a bare back.

The most common models of dresses with asymmetries of sleeves:

• Bodycon pencil dress. A sleeve in such an outfit can be either a tight-fitting long one or a “flashlight” or a triangular shape.
• Model "mermaid" floor length. Sleeve in such a dress is long, often flared or complemented by flounces.
• Model with an A-like silhouette. The sleeve in this outfit can be of any length.
• Dress with a drapery - the Greek style or a dress of the Empire style. Most often, the sleeve in this dress is spacious and long, but there are models with an adjacent sleeve three quarters.

• Covering a dress with a single sleeve with outerwear (a jacket, cardigan or something similar) is not worth it, because then all the charm of the outfit and its main highlight are lost.
• If the dress with one sleeve is represented by a maxi-model with a free cut, then for emphasis on the waist it can be worn with a belt.
• Loose dresses can be supplemented with a hat, and a plain clutch should be chosen along with a short-fitting dress.
• Tights or stockings do not wear under such dresses.

Wearing a dress with one sleeve can be both sandals and sandals, and shoes. An evening outfit of this style goes well with open stiletto shoes.

If your dress with an asymmetric sleeve is quite concise and is made in one color without much decor, you should not select too massive jewelry in large quantities for it. Enough discreet earrings, one bracelet and ring.
