A-line models with long sleeves
A classic fitted cut with a long, wide hem is a summer hit. But if you want to emphasize the grace of the figure, it is better to choose a dress just above the knee length for the summer.
The emphasis on the waist makes any figure feminine, and if you want to divert attention from curvy shapes, complete the dress with a wide belt with a massive buckle.

Voluminous sleeves, deep cuts and slits, bright prints are the main way to stay in trend:
- A slit along the hip line will give a formal look to a strict outfit and provide freedom of movement.

- The straight silhouette looks good on any body type.
Pair the dresses with denim jackets or plain cropped jackets, a belt bag or a pouch for a casual look. Or add voluminous jewelry – three-row colored beads, a necklace of gems – for a solemn mood.

Styles with open back and shoulders
An open back is not just a bright accent, it is also a real salvation in the heat – it provides ventilation and coolness to the body.
The dresses are perfect for relaxing, meeting friends, shopping, parties or the beach.
Harmoniously combined with the decoration of a large floral pattern, which can be emphasized with miniature decorations in a business style and a wicker, knitted or textile shopper bag. The theme is large sunglasses with colored lenses, a charming straw hat or scarf.

The trend is natural light fabrics – cotton, linen, viscose, silk, chiffon or mixed materials with the addition of synthetic fibers for practicality.
The hottest colors are white, yellow and blue. Black, brown, beige and olive are also popular. The color scheme is extremely diverse. For bright and bold sets, choose dresses in pink, blue, turquoise, emerald, purple shades. A light and delicate image is emphasized by outfits in pastel colors – peach, pearl, powdery, lemon, lilac.
Of the details in the focus of attention are frills, ruffles, flounces, draperies, a deep neckline, puffed sleeves and pleats on the skirt. But be careful – voluminous sleeves and an abundance of frills visually make you fat, this is the choice of slender and athletic ladies. But the folds on the skirt look great on donuts and “steal” the fullness, just choose models with a long hem below the knee.
