Off-the-shoulder 2017

Fashion, as we all know is a universal culture and is dynamic. In the 19th Charles Frederick Worth was the first designer to have his label sewn into the garments that he created.

Yes, I saw a painting of Elizabeth of Austria wearing an articulate gown sewn by the "minister of fashion" and guess what, it was an outstanding off- the-shoulder gown.

The gown exposed the shoulders of the beauty and elegant Queen hence got me contemplating on who is illegible to wear one, until I saw it trend in this year with a new dimensions.

Now, the same style is designed not only straight-across but also cutout, asymmetrical, thin strips and others that are very stylish.

It is a design that is mostly seen on the red carpet, weddings, parties and even funerals. It obviously looks pretty cute.

off-the-shoulder dress can be paired with either sneakers, heels, sandals and or slippers.
