Any kind of stripe on clothing can be hard to wear. Horizontal stripes for example, can actually make you look larger than your are, while vertical stripes will lengthen your silhouette. But…how can you wear diagonal stripes?

Brittany Snow wore this stunning diagonal stripped dress at the premiere of Hairspray, and she did it perfectly! Try not to wear a necklace with this dress. Instead, opt for a simple and elegant look.

A strapless dress should fit just at the bust. This may require a trip to the tailor so you don’t have to keep hiking it up. Also, make sure to wear the right bra.

The diagonal stripes actually create a taller, slimmer silhouette, so you don’t have to worry about looking bulky or short.

With this type of dress you should wear low-cut shoes. They elongate your legs by keeping the line from the knee to the ankle seamless.
