Mullet dress: the asymmetry that will conquer you

Mullet dresses are characterized by their unequal length, shorter front and long back, which gives a special charm to the look. It is an alternative for those who do not want to bet on a long, but also do not want to be alone in the short.

The term mullet, used by fashion, was borrowed from the very successful haircut in the 1980s which, like the dress, is short on the front and long on the back. Just as the cut gained many fans at the time, this length has increasingly won over women in the fashion world.

We invite the image consultant, Lili Fuzikava to help us with some tips for composing looks with different types of mullet dress, check out:


Casual mullet dress

It is a good choice for those who want to give a more informal look. In addition to being a cooler option than long for hot summer days, they are usually made with lighter fabrics. A casual dress calls for equally casual shoes, but the shoe model depends on the occasion. Flats or sneakers are great options for setting up a very laid-back look. ? suggests Lili.

Mullet dress for work

Whether your work environment is more serious or more informal, it is important to be wise when choosing the right mullet model. A good tip is always to go for less bold and slightly longer models. Lili recommends dresses with slightly contrasting front and back lengths, as this difference tends to draw a lot of attention, so as not to risk making a mistake, go for classic shoes like a scarpin or a sneaker, for example. ?

Party mullet dress

This is a good opportunity to enjoy the boldness and elegance of mullets. Also because they gained fame in the red carpet. The difference is with the types of modeling and fabrics. The more frill and volume, the more dramatic the look. Wear more open or low-cut shoes to enhance your legs. ? indicates Lili

Mullet dress in winter

Despite its shorter length, the mullet dress suits winter very well, if worn with the proper accessories and parts. It's nice to wear a lighter fabric dress with heavier pieces like leather jackets as it gives an interesting contrast. Can you bet on the pantyhose and boots combo for a warmer look? ? advises Lili.

White mullet dress

It is common to use lighter colors for the day, of course depending on the occasion, but is a good choice to match the brightness of sunny days. Just be careful with white wedding dresses, as this is a color that is traditionally reserved for the bride. Lili suggests betting on the details, for example a powerful necklace, to create a contemporary, minimalist look with the white mullet dress.


Shorty mullet dress

A good tip for the short, is to bet on shorter lengths, to enhance the legs, giving a feeling of stretching. Lili says betting on the right shoes makes all the difference in this case, ev avoid wearing too tight shoes that shorten your legs. Abuse stretching tricks such as nude, hollowed-out, and pointy shoes. Prefer smaller bags.?

Floral mullet dress

They are the face of summer, fun, flowered mullet dresses give a good look. Just pay attention to the prints, the big ones tend to increase the silhouette. For those who find the floral print too romantic, the tip is to opt for the floral with the dark background. For a darker version, ankle boots round off the look. ? indicates Lili?
