A-Line Minis Are The Structured Dress We're Buying For 2024 - Our Favorite Ways To Style Them
With the festive season upon us, it's now time to start prepping our wardrobes for the new year. While certain seasonal styles remain the same every year, fashionistas are always on the lookout for new trends that they can incorporate into their wardrobes in order to stand out in a crowd. We have already predicted that blending vintage eras is the biggest trend for 2024 and have also picked our favorite NYFW Spring/Summer 2024 fashion trends, and today we are here to share another favorite craze of ours.
A-line minidresses are timeless and easy to style. Is it any wonder then that they keep returning to the fashion runways every few sartorial seasons? This structured dress is an item that most people will certainly have in their wardrobes. If, however, you are looking for styling tips to elevate your A-line mini — think worn with boots or as a strapless number — we are here to help you with inspiration.
Leather on leather is done best with an A-line mini
Leather as a material has timeless appeal but it can look overdone if you choose to pair leather with more leather. A simple way around this problem, then, is to wear a leather A-line minidress with knee-high leather boots. The skin you show between these two products will offset the starkness of too much leather.
Go au naturel, quite literally
Another big trend from recent fashion weeks that you could combine with the A-line minidress trend is that of wearing large flowers, rosettes, or leaves on your dress. Nature-inspired designs look beautiful and ornate, and will surely help you stand out in a crowd.
When in doubt, embellish it
When you have a formal occasion to attend, an A-line minidress is the easiest one-and-done outfit choice. To make sure it suits any kind of formal dress code mandate, make sure to buy a dress in this structured style that is made with sequins, pearls, or appliqués. If it's in a trendy cut and timeless color, you will be able to use the dress for many occasions.
Combine two trends with A-line minis and feathers
Another major trend we have noticed for 2024 is the use of feathers in any and all outfits. We saw them tastefully done on the runways of Gucci, Valentino, and Loewe. Why not combine these two of-the-moment trends for a chic A-line minidress look? It's fun, flirty, and outré at the same time.
Style it for a cold winter
Who says that A-line minidresses must be worn only in warmer weather? This versatile garment can easily transition from summer to fall to winter seasons. All you need to stay warm is to pair the dress with tights and a warm coat on top. You will be all set to make an impact.
Show off your shoulders and your legs
A-line minidresses are inherently sexy because they make your legs look longer and give the appearance of you being taller and slimmer. For some extra oomph, you could also show off your shoulders by ensuring the dress is in an off-shoulder style. People won't be able to take their eyes off you!
