How to Style the Karina One Shoulder Pleated Dress in Blue Floral by Body Type
- Rectangle: Define the waist with a fine belt and a wrap silhouette to introduce shape. The Karina One Shoulder Pleated Dress in Blue Floral works well layered over a fitted base for added structure.
- Hourglass: Fitted bodices, clean closures, and waist-defining seams flatter natural curves. Let the 99% viscose and 1% elastane skim rather than cling.
- Tall: Column silhouettes and long, vertical seaming elongate beautifully. The lines on this piece enhance height without overpowering the proportion.
- Petite: Look for a defined waist, a clean shoulder, and a considered hem. The precise tailoring of the Karina One Shoulder Pleated Dress in Blue Floral helps balance a shorter frame.
