The halterneck dress is a classic style that can be updated in design to keep up with trends while still maintaining the overall halterneck look. It's safe to say Marilyn Monroe's figure flattering white halterneck dress in The Seven Year Itch displays how glamorous this style can be.

Each year at celebrity bashes there are always ladies dawning this flattering dress. Many were snapped wearing variations of the halterneck on the sparkly purple carpet at the British Soap Awards. Some wore short mini styles whilst other opted for long maxi designs.

Gwyneth Paltrow was pictured wearing a striking black halter neck dress with a cut out design at the recent Iron Man Premiere in New York.

As well as glam events like those above the halter neck dress can also be a great casual summer dress. It's an excellent light travel companion that doesn't take up much room. It can be worn as day wear and to cover up your swimwear as well as dressing it up for a romantic evening in the sun. It's a perfect sophisticated cut for all occasions.

As mentioned this style of dress is very versatile and can adapt beautifully to new trends and with other styles, like backless designs and maxi styles. The empire waistline styles are great if you want to elongate your frame especially when it is coupled with a full feminine flared style.

The variations of halter dresses are endless, some have deep plunging v necks whilst others have a sweetheart neckline and others square designs and then there are silk styles to satin.

So you are on the look for your prince charming? Like Cinderella did, you too are visiting a party today to find the perfect match.

But to look your picture perfect and get all the attention you, you must wear some designer wear, short party dress or good club wear.

The options in short designer wear is plenty. All you have to do is take your pick according to your figure and comfort level and you will shine like a star in the evening party.

If you are shy type and trying out that short dress for the first time, go for jersey dresses. The reason behind them is that they hide more than they reveal.

But if you are the experimental sort, then stone embellished halter dresses must be your pick. Available in a variety of colors like purple, plums and pinks, they are sure to raise your presence quotient at the party. And who would mind the attention?

A new entrant in the category of short dresses are Ruffle tiered tunic dresses. It is a body hugging dress which flatters a bit from the waist and again narrows down towards the thighs. This kind of short dress is ideal for those with heavier mid riff. You can either opt for one shoulder dress in a variety of colors and fabrics. They look elegant and are stylish at the same time. One shoulder dress shifts the focus from the midriff and beams to the neck…so those with svelte shoulders can wear this kind of short dress.

However, for petite frame, a tube dress or off-shoulder ones would look good. Meanwhile whatever you wear, make sure you team up with the best accessory, i.e. your confidence. So best of luck with the party preparation!

The fascinating culture and exotic location of Asia has captured hearts and enthralled people to visit and for most, live in Asia. As interesting and mysterious as their lifestyle, nation and culture, the people in Asia are represented by various types of costume which represent their each uniqueness and individuality, with a distinct touch of their respective country and inheritance. The Asian dress, a symbol of eastern culture of traditionalism, distinctiveness and eastern knowledge and mystery, it is devoid of any commercialism and exudes and aura of strength and power. It belies the essence of human triumph in a continent full of conflict and drama.

The Asian dress is characterized by its simplicity but designed with subtle elegance and unique patterns, minus the chaotic grandiose of layers of lace and fluffiness associated with the European royal courts and traditional costumed. Its lines are sleek and are made with fabrics of silk or cotton for daily practicability and use. It is usually floor-length and has long sleeves which impart the culture of conservatism and traditionalism. Influenced mainly by the Chinese fashions, similarities can be found with each Asian dress with their design and form even with the distinct design from each nation.

For instance, the cheongsam of China and the ao dai of Vietnam have similarities with the Long-sleeved, high-collared necklines and side-slits worn over long skirts or trousers or cotton pants whether loosely worn or tied at the ankles. Each may have different distinctions in their design, style, material and colors but both types of costumes clearly show that one way it is influenced by another country which is close in region or through conquests of their nation in ancient times.
