The chasuble dress remade talking about her. From a foolproof simplicity with its unquestionably retro look, the model is back in force in the closet of fashionistas.

The chasuble dress: the 60's signature

The chasuble dress marks the revival of the 60s. The woman emancipates and reviews her wardrobe. His clothes are shorter, lighter and more practical. The silhouettes become more daring, colorful and sexy like the models of the time (Twiggy in the lead). The first hems at the top of the knee are adopted and women finally let go to more assumed looks, as to mark a break with the quick draw of the 50s .

The chasuble dress settles then and becomes popular, launched by the star creators of the time Pierre Cardin, André Courrèges and Yves Saint Laurent in particular.

How to wear it (and forget its a priori?)

We choose a little loose and what is needed of loose. We assume its simplicity by wearing it in neutral colors but we have fun with the materials. We opt for denim (dark or light, whatever), corduroy, thick cotton or even wool. Everything is allowed, depending on the desired look.

The good combo ? In winter, wear it with a turtleneck in contrasting colors, white on a black dress for example (and vice versa) . In summer, we mix the decades with a crop top under the straps of her dress chasuble and we calm the game level accessories. We put on a pair of simple sneakers or flat shoes so as not to risk doing too much. In short, we play it minimal.
