Polka Dot Dress Ideas

Polka dot is a pattern consisting of an array of filled circles. Early instances were generally equally sized and spaced relatively closely in relation to their diameters. Many modern prints include more randomly spaced, sized and coloured dots. Polka dots are most commonly seen on children's clothing, toys, and furniture, but they appear in a wide array of contexts. The pattern rarely appears in formal contexts, however, and is generally confined to more playful attire such as bathing suits and lingerie. Occasionally, white-on-black small dots appear on more formal clothing .Polka dots became common on clothing in the late nineteenth century in the United Kingdom.

Polka dot dresses are always in style, but they are best accented with accessories such as jewelry, scarves, shoes, hats and purses. Having the correct accessories can either make your entire outfit a hit or miss. Fashionable polka dot dresses are usually shorter, a little above the knee, with short sleeves. This type of dress creates a great template for adding accessories. Decide on a certain color you want to wear to accent the polka dot dress. This depends on what color the polka dots are. Common styles are black, red or white polka dots. If your dress is black and white polka dots, accent it with a couple black or white pieces of jewelry, then add a colorful scarf or purse such as red, green, blue or yellow. Use your favorite color to accent the dress colors.
