As we all know celebrities love showing off their svelte selves on the red carpet, so it`s no wonder one sizzling hot dress has been heating up Hollywood.
The body conscious dress or body con takes cue from the figure-hugging Herve Leger bandage dress, which as its name implies, feels like a second skin. Made to hug every single curve, It`s designed to proudly show off your shape-but not everyone has the confidence to pull off this super tight style.
The bodycon dress, or by its full name body conscious dress shouldn`t leave you feeling self conscious about your body, insists celebrity stylist. `Most women believe you have to have the perfect figure to rock this hot trend, but that is not particularly true. Choose the right undergarment to help smooth out your curve, such as Miraclesuit, shapewear or SPANX. Certain prints of the dress can also make your body appear to have an hourglass shape`.
The body con dress can be your best friend or worst nightmare, says model and style expert Jaimie Hilfiger. some may think this dress is a quick and simple solution to achieving the perfect evening look while others beg to differ. It really all depends on how you wear it according to your body shape and size.
Certainly, you may want to squeeze in an extra session or two at the gym first to pull off this look without holding your breath, but there are some simple ways to still rock it , even if you don`t have a body of a supermodel.
The body con dress is a show stopper on its own which means it`s best to keep the accessories at a minimum skip the heavy duty jewelry and focus on pieces meant to compliment, not over power , your outfit. keeping accessories and shoes neutral definitely helps keep the focus on the look, without pushing it over the top.
Furthermore, if this outfit makes you feel too self-conscious don`t fret. You can easily add on a layer with an oversized jacket or loose-fitting cardigan to balance out the look. It is also a simple way to stay warm, especially during unpredictable spring season. A tailored blazer can also make this sexy look more polished office friendly.
