Polo dress - the perfect solution for outdoor activities

This polo today is considered unisex clothing, but many years ago it first appeared as an element of a men's tracksuit. The polo shirt was worn by men who were engaged in the same sport. Gradually, the polo was “retrained” from sportswear to casual, and over time, girls began to wear this element of the wardrobe, however, in a slightly modified form.

The polo dress is an elongated shirt with a short sleeve and a turn-down collar with buttons. It is comfortable and does not constrain movements, so it is great for outdoor activities. The first polo dresses were mostly light shades and plain. Today, the color scheme of these outfits is much richer. Two-color and three-color models are popular, as well as dresses with geometric patterns.

Often, girls choose more feminine varieties of polos, for example, with ruffles on a skirt.

On sports girls, such dresses sit best - and not surprisingly, because the polo was invented precisely in order to demonstrate a beautiful, athletic figure. However, those young women who do not pay much attention to this side of life can afford this outfit.

Chubby girls will love the way the polo dress sits on them. A straight cut, the absence of any decor in the waist and hips in combination with a dense fabric masks excess volumes in the lower part.But a shortened sleeve and a playful button-down neckline make it possible to present the neckline in a favorable light.

Since the polo dress was originally intended for outdoor sports, it was just above the middle of the knee. Such a skirt was considered optimal, as it did not hinder movements and allowed athletes to feel comfortable. However, over time, strict requirements regarding the length of the dress disappeared, and today in stores you can find polo models with a skirt of various lengths - from mini to maxi.

A dress with a skirt below the knee is considered long. For sportswear, this length is not characteristic, but the polo dress has long migrated from a sports wardrobe to casual. A long polo dress looks very unusual, thanks to the combination of sports elements (short sleeve, button-down collar) and a romantic loose skirt.

A long polo dress is not suitable for all situations, for example, in the office or at a cultural event it will not look appropriate. But for a walk around the city, going to the beach or shopping, it is simply irreplaceable.

A polo dress with a skirt on the floor is not common, but it looks incredibly impressive. This model is especially suitable for tall girls - with a small stature, a straight maxi skirt can deform the proportions of the figure.

The length of the midi for a polo dress is considered classic, so models with a mid-length skirt are most popular. This dress allows you to demonstrate a sports figure and slender legs, without going beyond the bounds of decency. In addition, shoes are easy to choose for a medium-length polo dress - these can be either soft, textile boots, or sneakers or sandals.

A polo dress is usually sewn from light, natural fabrics in which it is comfortable to engage in vigorous activity. Most often, cotton is chosen for this purpose. But dresses made from "non-sports" materials, for example, from denim, look more original.

In summer, there is no more comfortable clothing than a dress with a miniskirt. A short polo dress is perfect for heat, as it does not fit the figure and is made of material comfortable for the body. At the same time, shortened models of such dresses are very diverse.

Short polo dresses with pleated skirt knock down the clothes of tennis players. This outfit looks very attractive. A more romantic look can be created with a gentle polo dress with a color that has a skirt with playful ruffles.

Another option is a short polo dress with a skirt on the drawstring. The fitted silhouette makes the usual sports outfit more feminine.

A classic polo dress fastens with two or three buttons. Modern models can have any number of fasteners. For example, safari-style models that fasten buttons to the waist or the entire length are now quite popular.

Metal rivets on polo dresses are a tribute to modernity. Such fasteners are most often seen on models made of denim or other rough materials. Military style dresses are usually fastened with rivets.

A zipper is very rare on polo dresses. If it is present, it goes along the entire length of the dress. Zipper polo dresses are usually very simple and designed specifically for sports.

Sometimes you can see a polo dress without a fastener at all. As a rule, in this case, the outfit does not have a collar at all, but there is an unusual neckline, for example, round or rectangular.

• With a jacket or sweater. The polo dress goes well with cropped light jackets such as bomber jackets. It will also look harmonious with a jeans or sweatshirt. To create an image of a girl from high society, throw a sweater with a triangular neckline and a pattern of rhombuses on top of a polo dress.
• With headgear. A polo dress can be combined with small straw hats, baseball caps, tennis caps or sports hats. To create an image in a marine style, put on a white and blue polo cap.
• Tight pants. A polo dress is rarely worn with tights - these elements of the wardrobe do not fit well with each other. If it’s cool outside, you can wear such a dress with skinny jeans, leggings or leggings.
• Socks or knee-highs. Many of us do not wear these wardrobe items since childhood - and in vain. Together with the polo dress, little white socks, peeking out from under the shoes, look very cute. A more flirty and playful look can be created with the help of high golf.

Those who prefer more feminine shoes can wear this outfit with ballet shoes or comfortable sandals without a heel. For warm weather, sandals or even slates are suitable. Do not forget about clogs and slippers. Those who like to wear fabric, "holey" boots in the summer can safely experiment with these shoes and polo dresses.

Jewelry. A sports polo dress doesn’t need jewelry, maximum - bright rubber bracelets and badges with symbols of your favorite teams. If the outfit is made in a different style, it is quite possible to wear several jewelry for it. Of course, jewelry will not fit here, but simple jewelry or discreet jewelry will be quite appropriate.

Belt. A polo dress is often worn with a belt, since it allows you to designate a waist line, which makes the figure more feminine. This outfit looks great with a woven leather strap or with a thin textile belt.

Watches and glasses. With a polo dress, it is better not to wear too many accessories at once. It is better to choose the most necessary and functional things. This dress is well suited to a massive watch in a sports style and large sunglasses.
