One of the best things about them is that the way they flatter every body type. Depending on the fabric, shirt dresses can disguise flaws and enhance certain physical attributes. Many are made from natural fibers like cotton or silk, but can also be made from artificial fabrics like polyester.
A cinched waist can be created on almost all dresses - all it takes is a simple belt or ribbon; even a scarf will work. This defined waist helps balance out the body's proportions, and enhances the look of the shirt dress.
Mostly you'll see these worn during the summer months in lightweight cotton materials. However, they are so stylish and so effortlessly versatile that they can be worn year-round, and for almost any occasion. It can easily go from work to play with just a few different accessories, such a bold scarf or necklace for a party or a pair of conservative heels and earrings for work.
Regardless of the color, fabric or style, the shirt dress is a versatile piece of clothing that is useful for any wardrobe. At work or at play, the dress can easily be the all-occasion item in one's closet.
