Original dressers can find their flair and express their individuality by selecting styles that are conservative in their design direction but that combine contrasting textures to give them a fresh look.

 

Cynthia Rowley puts a modern twist on traditional styles.


For example, Cynthia Rowley updates the shirt dress by using a lush jersey fabric trimmed with satin. Satin trims a mini cummerbund-inspired waist and pin-tucked details on the dress are made of satin. This conservative style has a total look of originality and so does the women who selects it. Other styles that are appropriate for the workplace but show a strong sense of style are those that reflect current trends. Cynthia Rowley's bubble dress (a key trend this season) has a nylon belt. The look gives an avant-garde feel to the basic LBD. Another major trend for the Spring season is the cropped jacket. This paired with a basic black dress creates an individualistic suit. The big black buttons make this jacket work with other fabrics. Pair the cropped jacket with a Betsey Johnson puckered cotton dress and achieve a suited look that exercises your creativity.


 

Is there a modern "uniform for success"?


The modern "uniform for success" is styling that complements and enhances a woman's shape while at the same time not being too revealing. Boucle knit wear from Rebecca Bruce is an excellent choice. The fabric conforms to most shapes and is flattering and stylish. Bright tanks can be mixed in with black basics to create a stylish total look. This dressing is ideal for those who have been out of the workplace or for those who want to purchase investment piece dressing. Mix and match options create many different looks.


 

How can conservative dressers add zest to their wardrobes?


Conservative dressers can add flair to their style by selecting fashionable prints in more basic styling. Laundry by Shelli Segal has bright, patterned dresses for Spring in classic, flattering styles including a 70s-inspired jersey print dress. BCBG updates styling in a black and ivory pattern and Cynthia Rowley gives the shy a sweet empire style with a jersey top and black and white floral skirt. Often accessories turn an otherwise conservative style into a chic fashion look. 12th Street by Cynthia Vincent puts a wide belt on a well styled jersey dress.
