Casual outfits have a tradition deep anchored in the history of human kind. Pragmatically speaking, fashion was borne from human’s need to find a middle way between reasons of moral and physical order, in a continuous process of adaptation and re-adaptation to the environment conditions and social factors. To work with pieces already present in feminine wardrobe and dedicate them to an aspect totally different is no longer a designer’s secret weapon, but a starting point in the creation of a collection. Day dresses from this season were kind of translated from casual chic lines, and materials finicality plays the main role in this equation.

1. Tunic dress: Yes, the tunic dress, destined for those days of summer and to a comfortable wear over the bathing suit claims the role of an evening gown. Tailors line remains the same, but the silk confers the dress a very elegant aspect. The brightness of the evening material has its main purpose to highlight the print, which displays a much more discreet note in the day version of the tunic dress. It’s destined mostly for summer nights and pool or open air parties.
2. Empire dress: An empire silhouette has its origins in the easy cotton dresses from the pre-birth period, however through the time it transformed into a day dress and afterwards into an evening gown. Ideal to hide certain flaws from the hips, thighs area, the empire dress breaches into the elegance area through the recent explosion of imagination in the accesorisation chapter. Accessorizing an empire dress doesn’t follow a certain pattern like choosing the glam chic or vintage pieces, but it also involves the use of evening materials.

3. Floral print dresses: The floral print is of course representative for spring days, and the light texture or the discreet chromatic stands out among the attributes of the urban chic style. Even so, designers like Alexander Wang or Alexander McQueen amplify the stitch, intensifies the chromatic and creates the illusion of preciosity and of a feminity beyond the easy and elegant aspect of the dress.
4. A line: Inspired by office outfits, this stitch is re-interpreted for a evening by annexing satin and lacery. Fiesta bridesmaid gowns composed from two pieces are in trend this year, and lacery represents the feast of the most recent collections this season. Opt for such a dress when you want to go to a cocktail party or at a distinguished evening (inspired from the Parisian incursions in fancy restaurants).
5. Babydoll dress: The babydoll, as a component piece of the feminine wardrobe, brings into close-up view reasons of esthetical and practical order, but the babydoll dress is brought to the spotlight through design games : emphasis of the bust, conicalness and volume, folds and bouffant extremities of the dress are details that offer the status of piece de resistance to the baby-doll gown.
