StyleHiving: The Mini Dress | The Frisky

Description

Ever since Gossip Girl Serena van der Woodsen sexily draped herself over a pool table in a black studded Catherine Malandrino shift dress while on her first date with the loveable Dan Humphrey, I had to stop and reassess my opinion of the mini dress as date wear. Off to Bloomingdales I went where I purchased my first ever mini dress, which had me asking: ‘where have you been all my life’ the second I slipped it on. The magic of a mini dress, like the one worn by Serena, is that it strikes the perfect balance between revealing and reserved. The daring length is countered by the absence of cleavage and an ultra formfitting silhouette for a look that still leaves much to be desired. Since these dresses tend to be a bit forgiving, it can be difficult to discern how they’re supposed to fit. You’re best bet is to make sure the dress gently grazes the body and isn’t too clingy or billowy.
