A swing dress is a shift dress that flares from the bust down. Maybe it’s just me, but I think the “relaxed fit” of the swing dress is what has brought it back in fashion. Just in time, as there are quite a few of us who can’t find our waistlines these days! Choose your style and color and watch what magically happens when you put it on. I dare you! As you walk, you will demand attention as the dress swings back and forth, side to side, showing off your legs while you walk.
That’s why they call it a swing dress. And the best part is no one is going to notice those pounds you packed on during the SIP. It will transform you, and you will feel like you can conquer the world. And did I mention it’s really comfortable to wear? A swing dress will take you to business meetings, presentations, cocktail hours and parties. This dress fits every occasion.
Back in the ’50s, the swing dress was worn as an everyday dress, and it’s one of my all-time favorites. I love how it embraces the top part of the body and then flows freely from the bodice. The dress is unique in itself because it doesn’t discriminate in size. This garment looks good on women of almost any shape! And the styles vary in colors and patterns.
Places to Wear Swing Dresses
Swing dresses are great for wearing almost anywhere: for work, dinner parties, church, weddings, date nights. You really don’t need a special occasion to pull it out of your closet. Take it to the park or brunch on the weekend or dinner at a nice restaurant.

- A blazer, sweater or jean jacket on top
