There are so many variations of the sweater dress that there is something for every body type. You just need to know the little tips and tricks that change everything ;) With this article, you will see that you will look sublime in a sweater dress.
1. Choose the right sweater dress according to your body shape
Sweater dress for tall and fine women
Why not take the opportunity to wear a long, tight-fitting sweater dress? Feminine and seductive, you can accompany it with a beautiful lipstick and counterbalance the style with sneakers for a sportswear or casual style. If you have a small chest, you can opt for turtlenecks which give a volume effect.
You can also focus on colors or patterns if you want to give volume to your silhouette like stripes in a sailor style:
Sweater dress for petite and petite women
No need to procrastinate for long. First, it is better to wear short or mid-thigh length so as not to flatten your figure. You have to show your legs to provide verticality.You can add wool stockings for a sexy side and to be warmer; all of which can be accompanied by heeled ankle boots (5 cm is more than enough). Close-fitting or oversized, anything goes. Choose what you like! Finally, the perfect combo for petite girls: the short sweater dress, turtleneck and bun. We're melting!
That doesn't mean that long sweater dresses are forbidden, it all depends on what you like again :)
Sweater dress for women with generous curves
If you are curvy, avoid oversize and opt for a fitted model, preferably dark or plain. You can choose a length that hides the buttocks, love handles (or NOT!) depending on what makes you most comfortable.
If you have a large chest, we do NOT recommend turtlenecks, instead opt for collars that clear the neck. We also avoid large knits or large patterns which tend to accentuate the volumes. On the other hand, we focus on fine and vertical meshes.

Your best ally for hiding a chubby little belly: the straight sweater dress.

You can also bet on a flowing women's sweater dress with a scoop neck or even a bare shoulder which will rebalance the silhouette from above, for example. Well it's not always great when it's very cold. So, a dress that can be slightly tight at the waist will look great.

2. Accessorize your sweater dress
And because you can accessorize, we even recommend that you go for it! Adding accessories is always a good way (if not THE way) to stand out from the crowd, to reveal your personality through clothing sold in series.
Illuminate with fine jewelry that lengthens
If you wear a V-neck, opt for a delicate pendant at the hollow of the breasts and large earrings. If it’s a round neck, wear a necklace instead. Finally, if you prefer turtlenecks, wear long, thin earrings.

For your wrists, you can keep it refined with fine accessories, in small quantities, or quite the opposite by rolling up your sleeves and wearing large and multiple bracelets. Listen to yourself and choose the style that suits you.
Mark the waist with a contrasting belt
Knit and leather, the combination is timeless: to accessorize your sweater dress, wear a leather belt! With an oversized sweater dress, a long sweater dress or to hide a few curves, mark your waist with a wide belt.
Add scarves and hats
We love long scarves wrapped several times around the neck. If your outfit is monochrome, don't hesitate to opt for a colorful scarf! If you prefer sobriety, match it to the color of your dress or jacket. Finally, go even further by wearing a beautiful felted hat or beret. Chic guaranteed!
