Every fashion season there is one trend that most designers think is going to be the major trend of the season whether it is pant suits or dresses, high heel or flats. This season is the year of women's dresses all fashion trends seem to indicate. Designers from around the world displayed a wide variety of styles and designs at fashion shows and fashion weeks that showed fall winter collections for this season. Every type of fabric from the flimsiest of lace to the heaviest velvet was shown and from bright young funky colours to more sober earthy hues, every colour in the rainbow was played with by designers in their dresses.
Women's dresses are one trend that is quite democratic. By that it means that most women regardless of body type, age and shape can find a style of dress that suits them and flatters their figures. Dresses also fit into a number of environments and occasions and for everything from going to work to going out on a picnic or even to a formal sit down type dinner, there is sure to be a dress that is just right for the occasion.
If you have the legs and the body for it and you have enough confidence in yourself and your personality to carry it off, a mini dress is the dress style for you. Designers showed a range of great mini dresses and as their collections are hitting the stores many young and even older women can be spotted sporting mini dresses around the fashion capitals of the world and looking great doing it. You do not even need to heave really long legs to wear a mini dress. Even if you do not have the height of a model, you will be amazed at what a great pair of high heel stiletto shoes can do and how much of a difference they can make when paired with a stylish mini dress.
For less daring women or older women who do not want to show a whole lot of skin or even for situations where such attire is not necessarily appropriate, there is always the maxi dress. Long and flattering the maxi dress can be as sexy as the mini or as subdued as you want it to be to fit into the most sober occasions and events. There are truly dresses for every woman and for every season.
