As the most prominent color in nature, green is a welcoming hue to the human eye. On any skin tone, the vibrancy of this color shines to highlight your best features. With the right green dress, you can evoke the characteristics of Mother Nature herself to create a look that is naturally beautiful. Here are some fantastic green dresses we recommend.
Choosing a Green Dress
When searching for the ideal green dress, keep these factors in mind:
- Environment: It is important to consider the weather when selecting the ideal dress for your event. If you’re planning to spend lots of time in the sun, opt for a lightweight dress with short sleeves and a thigh-length skirt. Cotton and linen fabrics are breathable and moisture-wicking, making them the perfect dress material for hot days. Look for long sleeves and skirts that hit below the knee to retain your body heat for colder weather. Avoid nylon or spandex dresses as they are typically thin and won’t provide much protection from the cold. Instead, look for thick polyester blends.
- Material: Spandex and nylon are great for creating a tight fit that hugs your body. The stretchy fabric gives you more wiggle room in sizing but can sometimes look inexpensive if the material is too thin. These fabrics are best when mixed with cotton or polyester to create durability and keep the fabric opaque. If the dress design requires stiffness, the material should be made from a thick polyester that can hold its form.
- Length: While a sizing chart can help you find the ideal size, it can’t always show you to the perfect fit. If the dress has a defined waist, make sure it would land properly on your torso. Women with long torsos will get a better fit with a dress that features a low waistline. Those with short torsos should opt for a high waistline that will meet at the natural bend of their own waists. You should also take into account the skirt length to ensure it won’t hit your legs too high or low based on your body’s proportions.
