Showing a little back skin is a great way to get a sexy look, while still leaving much to the imagination. I love pieces that from front glance seem like such simple silhouettes, yet when you turn around, the back reveals something much more extraordinary. We all remember the stunning moment in How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days when Kate Hudson looks over her shoulder in that stunning, low-back yellow gown. Completely a jaw-dropping fashion moment. A beautiful back is one of the most sexy ways to flirt!
Luckily for us, getting this look is as simple as dropping in to your favorite boutique. Designers have been on the open-back train for a few seasons now, adding this element to everything from simple cotton tops to an
adorable little cocktail dresses. A beautifully crafted back is great for weddings, when you want to wear something that is flirty and hot, but know it would be most inappropriate to rock a plunging neckline in front of your parents’ friends. Want a look that can transform from the office to night-time attire? Simply throw on a blazer with your open back blouse from 9-5 and at 5 o’clock slip that jacket off, add some funky accessories, and you are immediately ready for a night out on the town.
I started my new job at Wilmington’s Beanie + Cecil this past Friday and have been eyeing this gorgeous Thread Social cocktail dress (see above, call Beanie for details) from the moment I walked in the door. The lines of this dress create a visual appealing silhouette guaranteed to flatter nearly every body type. From the front, this dress screams classic chic and from the back a square cut open-back design converts this frock into an ultimate, up-to-date look that will remain a timeless piece in your closet for years to come!
I have worn beyond my fair share of plunging necklines, but as I am maturing, I realize that I have to alter the way in which I dress to impress. This back-baring method is undoubtedly the perfect solution to showing a little skin, while remaining age-appropriate. Any of these pictured pieces are bound to make heads turn, even yours when you are checking yourself out in the mirror!
