“What is a Shift Dress?”
Last week I mentioned a Shift Dress in one of my posts and immediately I got a bunch of emails asking me to define a “Shift Dress.” What makes it different from a Sheath? A Wrap? A Jumper? A Maxi?
Well…
A Shift Dress is something all women should want in their closest… especially since it traditionally hangs loose from the shoulders with very little or no definition in the waist, making it a “hit” for women with different body types.
It’s always wonderful (a huge bonus!) to find dresses that don’t hug your body too tight (and are in style)… or you need to be a size 0 to wear.


Another cool thing you can do with a Shift Dress is add a belt. If you desire more contouring to your body, it’s such an easy fix to toss on a belt or a sash.
So shift it up a bit and get one! You’ll find them in a lot of places right now.



I love the black dress you have shown (w/out) the model- Is that your dress or do you know who makes it ?? where it is from >?
I love that black dress without the model too-where is it from? I want it!
I love the LBD on the bottom too. I would love to know where it’s from! It’s so cute!
