A ladies sequin dress is the ultimate glamour dress for making an impression especially over the Thanksgiving or Christmas season. This autumn whatever the occasion, festive party dresses or clubbing cocktail wear offers lots of textured fabrics. The base fabrics are embellished with either sequins, beads or studs. Flowers such as roses and lei swathes drape across shoulders. Brocade fabrics, velvets, soft nappa leather and softest silk chiffons are mixed with sequins and artfully draped and swathed and all will catch your attention.
Designers gave us a catwalk look of simple short sequin shifts. High street retailers have followed with equally pretty versions. Countless women will sigh 'ahh pretty' when they see the sequin dress on a clothing rail, but in reality find the tunic type mini dress simply too short. This winter designers universally seem to think women want dresses that expose their knees. Take it from me, some of these dresses are so short they can be thought of only as a long top.
How you wear the sequin pieces depends on you. Some women with shapely thighs will wear the tunic styles as mini dresses, whilst others will pair them with pants or opaque tights, and the fashion forward will choose over knee boots.

This low back teal blue sequin dress right is a catwalk fashion from Twenty8Twelve. The high street version from French Connection is a boldly embellished cubist abstract sequin and bead fabric design that coruscates with reflected light. It would look even more wonderful in night lighting, and the modest back neckline makes it a more wearable option for the majority of women.
Below that dress is a sequin blouson tunic dress from Monsoon. The semi sheer sleeve over the underslip body adds a measure of mystique and glamour for many who prefer to cover up their arms.
