You take out your gingham dress, but then you stop and think: how can you style it in a new, fun, and event-appropriate way? This print will always look cute and classy, but it can be hard to dress it up without the right pieces.

Luckily, it doesn’t have to be difficult to style a gingham dress. You can look stylish in gingham women’s dresses with these simple tips from this blog.

1. Choose the Right Silhouette

There are many different styles of gingham dresses, some of which include the A-line, wrap, shirt dress, and smocked forms. You should go with the one that fits you best and is pleasant to wear.

A loose fit gives the impression of being more laid back, while a tight fit gives the impression of being more put together.

Shorter forms are more enjoyable and are an excellent choice for programs that take place during the day. Choosing the right amount of style in either midi or long lengths is important. Pay attention to the waist if you want to get more shape. You can also use a belt to tie everything together.

2. Add the Right Footwear

Shoes quickly change how you feel. When worn with short dresses, sneakers give off a laid-back, everyday vibe. If it’s warm outside, shoes or flats with straps make everything look lighter. You can dress it up without going too far with block heels or flats.

Boots give you style and keep your feet warm in the fall and winter. If you wear gingham, white sneakers will go with almost any color. It’s best to keep things simple because the print jumps out anyway.

3. Layer for the Season

Clothes that keep you cool are smart to wear. The design pairs well with casual outfits, such as a denim jacket. Clothes that cover a little without being too much are ideal for winter. For a different look in cold weather, try a long coat or leather jacket.

In the winter, tights or leggings can keep you warm and stylish. If you want more color or texture, wear a scarf. Layers should stay light enough to let you move. Don’t hide the dress; it’s the most important part of the outfit.

4. Accessorize Wisely

Pick out a few little things that go well with each other. Big jewelry can look like too much with gingham because it already has a lot going on. Put on some gold hoops, a soft pendant, or basic bracelets. A charming hat or bag makes you stand out.

In the summer, choose crossbody or woven bags that are light. When you get dressed, carry a clutch or a leather bag. If the dress is bright, don’t add any bright accessories. Accessories should go with the style without drawing attention away from it.

5. Mix with Other Prints (Optional)

It is possible to mix prints if you are careful. You could use small amounts of flowers, polka dots, or stripes. A scarf, shoes, or headband with a pattern adds fun without being too much. To ensure a cohesive look, it’s important to adhere to the same color family.

It looks best with smaller prints when the gingham is big. Keep one print in mind and use the other one in small ways. If you’re not sure, try out pairs in front of a mirror.

Achieve Confidence and Balance

Trust your own style, whether you’re going for a casual look on the weekend or getting dressed up for a special event. Wear your gingham dress with confidence and balance, and it will be one of your closet’s best items.
