The shirtdress developed over the ensuing decades as the economy picked up, from a more feminine and completed skirt in the 1950s, thanks to Christian Dior's iconic 'New Look', to the popular epaulettes and long sleeves of the eighties. The look ushered in a new generation of glamor and changed the language of the shirtdress from purely daytime to nighttime.
Currently, we can find many variations of this dress, but they all have two unalterable elements: the shirt-like collar and the buttons that go all the way. Below, we show you some examples that have taken television by storm recently and will make you fall in love, as much as we do, with this incredible garment.
Sarah Jessica Parker in 'Just Like That'
We couldn't not mention the iconic Carrie Bradshaw, played by Sarah Jessica Parker, in the reboot of the famous series And Just Like That. In this case, Bradshaw appears in a spectacular shirt dress, signed by Carolina Herrera, with low fullness and paired with a studded belt that contrasts the classicism of the garment. A look that confirms that this kind of relaxed choice can also be sophisticated.
