30 Days of Outfit Ideas: How to Style a T-Shirt Dress

January 12, 2018 By: Nada Manley6 Comments

There’s nothing that’s more throw-on-and-go than a comfy cotton dress. It also happens to be super-versatile. Pair it with flats or booties for everyday errands, or dress it up with heels and a pretty necklace. With a staple this simple, flattery is even more critical. A straight shape works for curvier body types, but if your shape is straighter, a little definition in the waist will be super flattering. Ruching, draping and tie-waist details also aid in flattery. Look for a fabric that’s substantial enough to not show lumps and bumps, and a flattering neckline.

Once you’ve found the perfect t-shirt dress (and I offer examples for every budget at the end of this post), check out the outfit inspiration here for ways to wear it.

T-Shirt Dresses for Every Budget

Straight t-shirt dresses can be cute and comfy, but in my opinion, dresses with a defined waist are most flattering to most women, as they help accentuate the waist and camouflage a little tummy bulge.
