Decorations for an evening dress. How to choose the right one?

Dec­o­ra­tions for an evening dress. How to choose the right one?

Some women wear dress­es every day. Oth­ers are wait­ing for a spe­cial evening to final­ly pull it out of their wardrobe. Regard­less of the style of the dress, all ladies com­ple­ment it with fash­ion­able acces­sories. The key to suc­cess is shoes, a bag and beau­ti­ful jew­el­ry. They should be cho­sen accord­ing to spe­cial rules.

How to choose accessories for an evening dress?

There are two main fac­tors that are tak­en into account when choos­ing jew­el­ry for a dress. The first is the fab­ric from which it is made. The sec­ond is a cutout. In the case of com­plex mate­ri­als (such as jacquard or velor) and addi­tion­al ele­ments, sequins, rhine­stones or embroi­dery, pay atten­tion to all the small details. A ver­sa­tile option is del­i­cate ear­rings or a small ring.

The main acces­sories for a dress with open shoul­ders, sewn from lace:

• wide bracelet,

• expres­sive ear­rings,

• orig­i­nal neck­lace.

Against the back­ground of lace, minia­ture jew­el­ry will sim­ply get lost.

But the main prin­ci­ple is that less is bet­ter. This means that if the dress or blouse is very dec­o­ra­tive, majes­tic neck­laces and long ear­rings will cre­ate the oppo­site effect.

If you are going to wear a beau­ti­ful thick neck­lace, you should put aside long ear­rings with a lot of stones. Pre­fer a styl­ish ring or bracelet, you can even refuse ear­rings. The excep­tion is an expen­sive set con­sist­ing of a del­i­cate neck­lace and ear­rings in a sin­gle style.

Sum­mer maxi dress­es with eth­nic decor in boho style har­mo­nious­ly com­ple­ment nat­ur­al stones, long neck­laces with inter­est­ing motifs, such as feath­ers or dream catch­ers.

Strong dan­gling ear­rings and thick bracelets are the per­fect dec­o­ra­tion for a Span­ish dress with an airy skirt. Mul­ti-lay­er­ing is per­mis­si­ble here. Do not be afraid to com­bine pat­terns and sev­er­al neck­laces, bracelets or rings in a sim­i­lar style.

How to choose jewelry for a dress?

Let’s start with the tex­ture of the out­fit. If it is a mod­el with a lace fin­ish on the neck­line, then its beau­ty should be empha­sized with one piece of jew­el­ry — either mas­sive ear­rings or a thick bracelet. A neck­lace or neck­lace is not suit­able in this case, as it will not be clear­ly vis­i­ble against the back­ground of the lace.

The ide­al jew­el­ry for a dress with a round neck­line is round ear­rings with chains. How­ev­er, if you wear long ear­rings, you need to show them in all their glo­ry. Women with a short hair­cut will clear­ly see all the ear­rings. Ladies with long hair need to make a high hair­style, tie them in a dec­o­ra­tive tail, pig­tail or bun­dle.

For a smooth dress of a mut­ed col­or and with­out any jew­el­ry, styl­ists rec­om­mend a thick neck­lace with mul­ti-col­ored stones or a sil­ver-black round neck­lace and bracelet in a sim­i­lar style.

If the dress is dec­o­rat­ed with sequins, it will look good with small stud ear­rings or a thin chain. After all, sequins are a self-suf­fi­cient dec­o­ra­tion.

A dark dress at the throat will become a chic back­ground for such acces­sories as a thin neck­lace or a string of pearls. The main fea­ture of neck jew­el­ry is the cor­rect length.

How to choose an ornament for a neckline?

The shape of the neck­line large­ly deter­mines the shape and size of jew­el­ry, espe­cial­ly a neck­lace or chain.

• For a dress that cov­ers the shoul­ders with a smooth neck, round dec­o­ra­tive neck­laces or chains with pen­dants are suit­able.

• Large ear­rings and a wide ring are per­fect for mod­els with a draped neck­line and open arms.

• Those who wear reveal­ing dress­es with an open neck­line and a corset should make a choice in favor of large and small neck­laces, with a pen­dant or medal­lion, as well as chok­ers. In this case, long ear­rings are appro­pri­ate.

• Dress­es with a point­ed neck­line will match thin chains and neck­laces with a V‑shaped pen­dant. They visu­al­ly length­en the sil­hou­ette.

• For a neck­line in the form of a hor­i­zon­tal boat, a small brooch, short ear­rings and a neck­lace are suit­able.

How to choose the right necklace for a dress?

There are 8 types of neck­line, for each of them a spe­cial type of neck­lace is made.

1. In the form of the let­ter V. The ide­al option is a chain shaped like the let­ter V that tapers down. If it is a neck­lace, it should not be long or short. Then it will look defi­ant, espe­cial­ly for women with a large bust.
2. Boat. A large round neck­lace, a chok­er neck­lace with stones (one of the most fash­ion­able trends of recent sea­sons), long chains with a mas­sive pen­dant, sev­er­al simul­ta­ne­ous wear­ing of thin chains or iden­ti­cal neck­laces are suit­able. This will draw atten­tion to the neck, face, cheek­bones, curled strands of hair and dis­tract him from full thighs.
3. Sim­ple cut. Any dec­o­ra­tions are suit­able for sleeve­less dress­es and clas­sic shirts with a straight neck­line. The main selec­tion cri­te­ria are restraint and mod­er­a­tion. The prod­uct can be bright and worn over clothes or del­i­cate and minia­ture, worn close to the neck.
4. Dia­mond neck­line. Short round neck­laces look ele­gant — a string of pearls or a chain with geo­met­ric pen­dants. It is impor­tant that the dec­o­ra­tion does not cov­er the clothes. It will look beau­ti­ful near the neck.
5. Golf. A turtle­neck, T‑shirt, or turtle­neck is a good back­ground for a neck­lace. But then you should choose a long neck­lace that con­trasts with the range of clothes — a few tones lighter or dark­er.
6. Retro boho style neck­lace, espe­cial­ly with feath­ers.
7. Col­lar of dress­es, blous­es, shirts. If you wear an unbut­toned col­lar, wear a neck­lace under­neath it, like men do with ties. How­ev­er, avoid V‑shaped chains that will blend in with the out­fit. Pre­fer round prod­ucts.
8. Blous­es with straps. Short neck­laces are com­bined with blous­es with a slight­ly oval neck­line. They can be with a sus­pen­sion, but with a small one. Oth­er­wise, it will visu­al­ly short­en the neck.

Selection of decorations on dresses of different colors

Fash­ion, cut, mate­r­i­al and neck­line — that’s not all. The col­or of the evening dress is no less impor­tant. Turn on your imag­i­na­tion! Let a lush neck­lace or mul­ti-col­ored stones add char­ac­ter to the whole image.

In this case, the prin­ci­ple of con­trast works bril­liant­ly. If you want to wear a dark dress, empha­size it with light-col­ored jew­el­ry. Con­verse­ly, dark acces­sories will suit a light dress.

A time­less clas­sic — a fash­ion­able jew­el­ry set with an infin­i­ty sign made of gold or sil­ver. It will suit both a lit­tle black dress and a bright col­or out­fit. But in this case, you should aban­don addi­tions in a sim­i­lar range of col­ors, because they will cre­ate the impres­sion of an over­loaded image.

The main advice for fans of clas­sic jew­el­ry — sil­ver goes well with cool col­ors, and gold — with warm ones. How­ev­er, if you’re wear­ing a white or navy dress, you don’t have to choose between the two. Both gold and sil­ver are suit­able.

Neck­laces with red or pink stones will har­mo­nize with a green dress, with pur­ple — with yel­low. Con­verse­ly, green jew­el­ry with a red or pink out­fit and yel­low with pur­ple.
