Style Breakdown Series: The Sheath Dress

Sheath dresses are one of the most elegant of dress styles. They echo the female form and can be anything from semi-fitted to very fitted.

Here are 5 things to keep in mind when wearing sheath dresses:

1. The more fitted the dress the dressier and potentially sexier the image.
2. Semi-fitted styles are the most versatile and are appropriate for all occasions.
3. The fit is achieved through darting – usually at the underarm, under bust, back shoulder and under shoulder
4. Change up the look of a sheath by adding layers over or under the dress.
5. If you want to turn heads choose a sheath in bold geometric or floral print for a fun twist on the classic style.
