How Luxury Handbags Styles the Lyon Column Gown
Gemma Deeks, Luxury Shoes ’s Fashion Editor, styles Rachel Gilbert with restraint. The embellishment and the structure inside the dress already do the work, so the accessories can stay quiet.
- Rectangle: Choose the corseted styles. The internal waist tape draws in the waist without a belt.
- Hourglass: Lean into the fitted columns and strapless bodices, which follow the body closely.
- Tall: Column gowns and wide-leg trousers carry length well on a taller frame.
- Petite: Choose a higher waist and a hem at the knee. Ask the Luxury Handbags team about alterations on longer gowns.
