Frequently Asked Questions
What is a fitted dress?
A fitted dress is characterised as being tight fitting and perfectly shaped to fit the female figure. In other words, it's a dress tailored to flaunt your beautiful curves. Fitted dresses or pencil dresses come in many different fabrics, colours and styles. For example, a sexy velvet dress or a figure-fitting dress with a chic belt at the waist.
Where and when can you wear a pencil dress?
First things first, you can of course wear whatever you want - whenever you want! A pencil dress is so versatile, and adaptable that you can't go wrong. Of course, you can wear a very formal pencil dress for special occasions, but there is no reason why you can't wear your favourite pencil dress on a normal weekday. Accessories and shoes will give you the styling versatility you need, giving your outfit a more casual vibe or a more sophisticated look.
Which body type looks good in a fitted dress?
Every body is a perfect body - so don't let anything hold you back! Just be aware that fitted dresses are skin-tight and accentuate all of your curves, unlike for example an A-line dress. But the right underwear will give you a beautiful smooth base that makes every (tight-fitting) dress look and fit better, so you will feel your most confident self. After all, self-confidence is the best accessory! However, if you feel less comfortable in figure-fitting dress, you should check out our collection of flared dresses.
Can I wear a fitted dress in summer?
Fitted dresses are always popular in summer. It's the time of year when people wear body-con dresses in the brightest, cheery colours. Pick a pretty sleeveless design and you're all set for those sunny days!
Can I wear a fitted dress in winter?
A pencil dress is also a great outfit choice for winter. A long-sleeve pencil dress will keep you warm, especially when paired with tights and warm boots. Of course, a pencil dress also looks great when worn with a long cardigan or an edgy jacket or blazer!
Can you wear a pencil dress to a wedding?
A wedding is the perfect occasion to wear your prettiest dress. So don't be afraid to shine in a chic pencil dress with beautiful detailing, like a bow at the waist. Finish the look with some pretty high heels. Va-va-voom!
Is a pencil dress office-appropriate?
Absolutely, there is no reason why you can't show off your figure at the office! Since the pencil dress design is pretty sexy in and of itself, it's best to choose a dress that has sleeves and a modest neckline.
