What to Look for in an Asymmetrical Dress

First, you need to decide on what type of one shoulder dress you want. There are a ton of options! However, if you have curves, you are going to want to stick to certain styles. For example, go with fabric that has stretch and some additional structure.

Finding the Right Color and Prints

Additionally, go with a color that you absolutely adore. That will increase the likelihood of you wearing it. Likewise, If you do go with a print, stay with smaller prints. You don’t want to look to busy as this style already stands out.

“While you might not opt to wear a one-shoulder dress on a regular basis, as the style tends to land on the more formal side of the spectrum, styling it can be just as easy as wearing your other shoulder-baring ensembles.”
