Printed dresses are more eye-catching than plain dresses, making them ideal for parties and special occasions. But what are the differences between them?

Printed Dresses Are More Eye-Catching

While sparkly jumpsuits and sequin dresses raise the volume on decadent dress codes, printed dresses spruce up occasion wear with a more fresh-faced feel. Whether you prefer dainty florals or dynamic color block hues, this collection has the perfect printed party dress printed party dress for you. Find long and short print dresses in tunic, sleeveless, babydoll and off-the-shoulder silhouettes. Alternatively, opt for a backless, sheer panel maxi that will make a dramatic entrance. Color blocking is a style loved by celebs and their stylists alike.

They Are More Festive

When you’re invited to a wedding with the festive attire dress code, it can be challenging to find an outfit that’s both fun and appropriate for the occasion. You can still show off your personality with a statement piece of jewelry and elevate your look with heels, but you should avoid anything too casual or that could be mistaken for laid-back.

Printed dresses are ideal for festive occasions because they instantly add some extra sparkle to your outfit. Choose a sparkly sequin dress with ruffles or a wrap style that will flatter so many different body shapes and sizes. If you want something a little more understated, opt for a velvet dress that’s rich in color and has a gorgeous draping effect.

If you want to go for a more bold and traditional festive print, you can’t go wrong with a Christmas-themed dress. Sister Amy has a range of mid-length dresses with festive patterns including pine needles, tinsel and baubles.

They Are More Versatile

As you know, a party dress is a versatile wardrobe staple that can be dressed up and down for all your occasions. However, the beauty of printed dresses is that they can be styled in a more unique way to stand out from the crowd without the need for a ton of accouterments.
