40’s Style Dresses for Autumn/Winter 2011 – flattering for all body shapes!

Posted by Jamie Nicholson on Mon 26th September 2011 at 08:30 AM, Filed in Latest Celebrity FashionSites We LikeStyling TipsTrends

Go retro this season by flaunting the must-have dress style that celebrities such as Kate Middleton and Kelly Osbourne have been seen in.  40’s inspired dresses are wonderfully feminine and chic and can be worn day or night.

It is a flattering trend for all body shapes and the dresses allow you to flash just the right amount of leg!  There are so many styles out there from A-line skirt details, tighter hourglass fits and military retro designs.

A cross-over front is ideal for women with a full bust as it will give you a gorgeous shape.  You could even add a belt to the look to define your waist.  Frilled sleeve styles are great for pear shapes as they will add volume to your upper half and balance out your curves. 

Add a chunky cardigan to your 40’s day outfit then team with flats and a little boxy patent bag.  For the evening wear your dress with heels and a clutch.  Experiment with other vintage inspired accessories such as long gloves, faux fur and clashing tights and belts!
