A truly versatile outfit choice is a dark blue dress. This outfit is not as strict and gloomy as a black dress and, at the same time, it can be appropriate in the office, at friendly gatherings or a special event. This is a fashion classic, so dresses in dark blue tones will always be relevant and in demand.
Dark shades of blue are associated with order, organization and purpose. Therefore, dresses of this color are an excellent choice for work. At the same time, deep blue is the color of mysticism and mystery, so it is often used for evening looks.
Psychologists believe that the dark blue color of clothing is chosen by people who are prone to reflection; they, as a rule, are constant in their affections and conservative in life.
The dark blue color suits all girls without exception, however, stylists recommend following the following rules when choosing outfits:
- Stylists recommend that light-skinned blondes “move” the color away from the face, as it gives an unhealthy pallor to fair skin. The ideal choice for such girls is a dark blue dress with a white collar.
Dark blue clothes are super slimming, so they are recommended for overweight women. But, of course, when choosing, you need to pay attention not only to the color, but also to the cut of the clothes. It is necessary to choose an option that masks the problem areas of the figure, but emphasizes the winning ones.
What shades are there?
- Classic. Pure color, distinguished by versatility and rigor. That is why it is often used for sewing uniforms. For example, the jackets of naval officers are dark blue.
- Sapphire color. This shade is lighter than the classic dark blue, and on the color scale it falls between pure blue and its dark tone. It is this shade that is recommended for red-haired girls and blondes.

Dark blue color is perfect for office wear. It is quite strict, but at the same time, not as gloomy as black.
The most successful model for the office is a dark blue sheath dress. This outfit is suitable for any body type. For work, the dress is made from gabardine or suit fabrics. It is better to choose materials with the addition of elastic threads, as they are more comfortable to wear.
Another good outfit for the office is a dark blue a-line dress. It is recommended for chubby girls to choose it. This style will hide an imperfect waist and divert attention from heavy hips.
Everyday looks
Everyday dresses in dark shades of blue may seem boring. But this does not apply to printed fabric outfits. For example, models with white polka dots look very cute. A dress with polka dots, which has become popular again in the “new look” style, looks especially beautiful. These are fitted models with a sun-cut skirt. This dress allows you to create attractive looks in retro style. To do this, you will need appropriate accessories - pumps with small stiletto heels, a belt emphasizing the waist, short openwork gloves. Jewelry - white beads and stud earrings - won't hurt either.
What to wear with dark blue dresses? Shoes of various shades of white and beige go very well with such outfits. It is also better to choose a light-colored handbag.
Evening looks
Dark blue evening dresses are varied and bewitchingly beautiful. So a universal option is a satin or lace sheath dress in sapphire or deep blue. It should be worn with accessories in bright colors. Stylists recommend using no more than three colors when selecting accessories, and one of them should be white, blue or black.
A deep blue velvet dress looks stylish. A velvet outfit with a laconic cut is suitable for a business dinner with partners. A straight-cut velvet dress with a floor-length skirt is the best choice for a special event or attending a theater premiere.
An openwork guipure dress with a sheath can have a semi-fitting silhouette. Silk or satin dresses with lace inserts also look original.

A business dress is worn with shoes in neutral colors - gray, beige. White shoes are good for summer looks. Girls who like to experiment can choose shoes in bright colors, such as coral. In this case, there should be no other contrasting colors in the image; the emphasis will be on the shoes.
Shining crystal jewelry looks beautiful against a dark background. This could be a brooch with rhinestones or a rock crystal pendant. Jewelry with citrines, light shades of jade, turquoise, corals, and amber look beautiful.
When creating makeup, special attention should be paid to evening out skin tone. It is imperative to use concealer to disguise blue circles under the eyes, since the color of the dress will only emphasize this flaw. When choosing a foundation shade, you should give preference to warm tones. You can use a bronzer to give your skin a light tan. You can choose a bright color for blush, but in this case the lipstick should be in natural tones so that the image does not turn out vulgar.
Shadows should be chosen from shades of brown, silver, green. For light-eyed girls, peach shades or pink-beige tones are suitable.
