Knitted Retro Jumper Dresses

Most people have heard the expression woolly jumpers

. And we can all identify a dress. But to the uninitiated, the thought of a wool dress occasionally known as a jumper dress might appear like something seen in theatre productions. Stylish women know otherwise though, and the jumper dress can be looked upon as clothing item that ought to look odd but doesn't, like turkey and cranberry.

Jumper dresses can be worn in different ways but not every outfit or situation looks right or correct there still needs to be a little thought put in. But knitted dresses worn in the right way manage to look good in ways that it's difficult to pin down. The natural elasticity of wool (perhaps with the help of a little real elastic) is the starting point for the success. A knitted dress is likely to hug the body form more closely than any tailored cotton number could be, if figure-hugging is the design. But acting cautiously, a looser fit can also be designed successfully that doesn't look like a sack.

Knitted dresses work in a very unique way, avoiding the need for supplemental patches or colourings, they can be knitted into the fabric of the dress, whether it's a simple two coloured affect or something akin to the classic built-up Arran knit. It creates seamless, designed features that really bring out the curvaceous lines of a well fitted dress. An additional bonus for the fashion lover is that they don't need much looking after, and will look just as good at the end of the day as they did in front of the bedroom mirror.

If you must experience the various aspects that work and don't work in the world of jumper dresses, pop into your local vintage fashion store and prepare to have your opinions changed whatever they may have been. Alongside the self-knitted and the simply horrible, you'll find many examples of design perfection. You'll discover the softest wools made with real skill and passion belonging to such a sensual fashion item. Go on, try one on. If you're not convinced at the moment you'll suddenly see what all the fuss is about as you slip into the most comfortable, flattering and easy to wear dress you may have ever owned.

Although the knitted dress has certainly had its ups and downs, fashion-wise, they are hot property at the moment, an unlikely star of the catwalk and the international fashion scene Don't expect a minimalist, revealing style no knit could possibly sustain the structural needs of the slim-strapped evening dress or the overtly revealing looks. But as many women have discovered, the gently persuasive stretchiness can attract far more appreciative glances when worn well and if you've got the right style for your body, you can't fail to wear it well as the dress transforms itself to your figure and curves.

So unfortunately for the vintage fashion lovers, the jumper dress secret is out, and it's time we all started to reap the benefits of at least one retro jumper dress. This is no halfway house between a sexy dress and a dowdy jumper it's a performer in its own right and should find a place in every women's wardrobe.
