Christmas gift-o-metre - Subcouture - Versace Tribute
It's rare that you will ever see my doll sporting a long, formal gown. However, I love them, and I love to have little 'dress-up' sessions where I style my doll for some high-fashion formal event! I did style a lot more gowns to show you, but for some reason they clashed with the layout of my other images used, so we will make-do with the three that actually worked.
The first dress is simple, yet elegant. A stunning velvet material used with small silver detailing up the leg split. I love the boxy shoulders, which gives the dress a beautiful silhouette. I can see Angelina Jolie wearing this gown, it reminds me so much of that leg split dress she wore. I styled the gown with simple accessories, clear heels, so not as to distract from the amazing garment. A simple burgundy clutch finished off the look, being a boxy shape also, it drew similarities to the boxy shoulders.
From Subcouture, a gorgeous silk dress. This piece is a bit more indie-hippie inspired, that's how I interpret it. As the print is so nice, I did not want to overwhelm the look by adding additional statement pieces. Instead, I added some navy earrings which complement the colour of the gown. To finish the style I put on some tan rope heels, which neither distract from the gown, but they still add personality to the look.
Finally, from Versace, a simple black gown. A demanding neckline, shaped to accentuate womanly features, does not call for extravagant accessories. Much like the other looks, less is more in this case. Some basic earrings, and strapped stilettos. The eye is immediately drawn to the cut-out of the gown, which could be seen as the main feature. So, whilst it's a rarity that I get my doll dressed up super fancy, I still love to appreciate the pieces on offer for those who do get dressed for the Gods.
