Evening is a time of real experimentation. You never want to look the same way, wouldn’t you agree? Take this opportunity to indulge in luxurious fabrics and a bit of exotic embellishment such as sequins. Some fashion risks are  also worth taking sequins for daytime  although an unexpected choice works well for daytime as well.

 

1. When shopping for the perfect sequin piece be it for day or night time look , you want one that has the wow factor in it. That is that special piece that makes everyone in the room stop and say, ” Who’s that girl?” Quality is key. Don’t go overboard  or you will look like you are trying too hard.

 

2. Size matters : If the sequins are too big they can get costumery.

 

3. Lining: A lining makes  a world of difference to any garment . A lined garment looks better and this is very true with with sequins. It keeps threads from catching on your undergarments and it ensures your clothing will hold its shape under the weight of its glitz.

 

4. Matte sequins are a modern  alternative fashion out fit for the night or low key for daytime use.

 

5. Jet beading is subtle and adds elegant luster to the entire piece.

 

6. Stick to a single color. Multicolored sequins can be a bit over- whelming and overpowering to any fashion out fit.

 

This Versace gold sequin dress ticks all the boxes to become a summer fashion out fit  that can be dressed up or down depending on what the occasion calls for.  How do you wear sequins ?
