Polka Dot Dresses in the UK

Join the Polka Dot Craze Being around for almost two centuries, cheerful dot patterns only went out of fashion to triumphantly return to the catwalks in a few years or decades. Polka dot dresses have something fascinating about them; they make the wearer effortlessly stylish. Today, they are available in multiple colours and cuts, from cocktail and off-the-shoulder evening dresses to less revealing models you can wear to work. Polka dot dresses are great for spring and summer, but they are easy to transition into the colder seasons too. Combining various prints is often a tricky task, but a polka dot pattern is one of the lucky exceptions. You can mix two dotted prints to add interest to your look or visually balance your figure. For example, if you have curvy hips, you can wear smaller scale dots on the bottom part of your body, and bigger ones on its top part. Blending patterns that vary in colour will allow you to create an appealing contrast; use brighter colours for the area you want to emphasise. You can also combine polka dots with other patterns but make sure they match in colour and differ in size. Spotted dresses are easy to style up and down. You can pair your patterned dress with a solid blazer for a neat and professional office outfit or rock it with a leather jacket and boots for an edgy off-duty look. Note that smaller prints have a slimming effect and they are best recommended for curvier women. If you want to add volume to your figure, opt for a larger print size. As for the accessories to pair with your polka dot dress, you can choose shoes and a bag in one of the pattern colours. If it uses neutral hues (for example, two shades of grey), try wearing the garment with red or blue footwear. As for the jewellery, too much of it can be overwhelming. Try rocking your frock with plain earrings or a bracelet casually and adorn yourself with pearls for special occasions. If you want to accentuate your waist, you can break up a pattern with a matching or contrasting belt. Polish your look with a solid scarf or a hat.
