Trendy tunics or hip-length shirts have become a must-have in many women’s wardrobes because of the comfort they offer. Tunics are mostly longer than shirts, but shorter than usual dresses – pair them with your denims for a modern and casual look or with pants for a formal attire. Tunics are available in different lengths, cuts, styles, and shapes. The trick is to wear and style a tunic in a way that graces your body. If you want to up your style quotient, or experiment, a tunic is a perfect choice.
Here are some fabulous styling tips to get the most out of a tunic. Read on, learn more and style yourself as a diva!
Pair it with the right kind of pants
Wide-leg or baggy pants aren’t a great choice to wear under a tunic. You will look heavier than what you are with all that fabric and width, and the style of the tunic will make you appear bulky. How about a tunic and trouser set? Wear fitted pants or cigarette pants with a tunic and look your stylish best.
Keep it tucked or let it loose
This all-round flattering piece of clothing can be worn in multiple ways. Layer it with a top and leave it untucked or tuck it in if you want to focus on your slender body. There are no hard and fast rules for this. So, get creative and try a variety of looks.
Pair your dress-style tunics with pants and belt
Have some above-the-knee shirt dresses that you haven’t worn for long? Try pairing them with straight pants and add a broad belt over it. A tunic and trouser set is the most versatile yet comfortable outfit that gives you a chance to wear the shortest dresses without having to worry about carrying them.
Wear with Leggings
A tunic top worn with leggings is quite a classic and popular style. But if you want to give it a stylish touch, wear it with fancy footwear like embroidered or embellished booties or sandals and add a statement necklace or stole. Learn more about our complete range of tops and women’s lowers.
The layering trick
You can easily layer a tunic in winters by wearing a long cardigan, a cropped jacket, a leather jacket or waistcoat on top. Remember the rule of long over lean as that will help you handle the proportions and get a unique look.
Accessorise and have fun!
Yes, you can style your outfit in many different ways by using accessories. Use scarves, neckpieces, belts, or if it’s winters, then take on a stylish muffler. Wrap your scarf Parisian style, or around your waist like a belt, or in any way that suits you. Wear a broad choker necklace, some statement dangling earrings, a blingy belt, or colourful bangles. Just have fun by adding accessories. If we talk of belts, try designer belts with a silver or gold logo to catch all the attention.
Variety of shoes
You can tuck your legging or straight pants into your long boots for a flattering, long line, and look taller. Or pick flat ballet shoes – could be casual ones, or embellished ballet flats and wear them with a solid colour tunic and leggings. Add some statement jewellry to get an elegant look. But if you are headed to a party or a formal occasion, then pick an embellished tunic and wear it with a pencil skirt and heels for a dazzling look.
So, if you’ve not tried wearing tunics over pants before, then give it a try now. Play with different lowers, accessories, and shoes and change your style completely.
