[Guest post] Evening dresses for all

Wedding season is almost upon us as winter finally gives way to spring.  Maybe your first invitation has already popped through the letter box or maybe you are eagerly anticipating a summons to a summer garden party or ball.  Whatever the event, the quest to find the right dress for this summer can make people both excited and anxious in equal measure.  We all want to look unique and at our best when setting out for the night and finding the right outfit amongst a variety of evening dresses is crucial to success.

Leading women’s clothing store Isme offer a range of evening outfits for any occasion.  The Maxi dress looks set to return for summer 2013 – great news for ladies everywhere as this is a fantastic frock which can suit any style and waistline.  

Maxi dresses are wonderful for hiding a multitude of sins. For plus sized ladies they are also excellent at reducing large thighs and bigger hips.  Darker shades tend to be complimentary if you are taller or carrying additional weight, but a strong print design can be equally flattering and a bit more fun.  Teamed with a pair of heels and an evening clutch bag, this can be an incredibly effective evening look for a larger lady.  

Typically more petite women have been warned away from the maxi dress for fears this style can drown a smaller lady.  The key to wearing Maxi dresses for slimmer, smaller women is to find one which really clings to your body shape. 

You can invest in some great shapewear if you are worried about the odd bump or love handle, and this way the dress compliments and hugs your figure, making it a great wear for a special night out.  If you still dream of being taller then go for a pair of tall wedges to add that extra height. Compliment the look by adorning your neckline with a chunky necklace and slipping some bangles on your wrist to make an entrance at the party.
