What is a wardrobe staple? They are pieces of clothes that you can easily pair with other clothes, use to layer your outfits or wear on many different types of occasions. Having basic, chic tops, pants, and dresses in your wardrobe helps you create new outfits with other elements and look effortlessly stylish. Talking exclusively about dresses, here are 5 basic (and fashionable) types that should definitely make it to your wardrobe.

Little black dress

An LBD or a little black dress can be paired with almost anything, worn anywhere, and flatters every body type. In summer, wear them with heels and add bright red lipstick for parties. In autumn, pair the dress with stockings and boots, and in winter, layer it with a trench coat! There is nothing more simple, yet versatile than an LBD.

Wrap dress

A wrap dress is a must-have for its universally flattering silhouette. Its adjustable wrap style complements all body shapes, emphasising curves and providing comfort. Perfect for both casual outings and more formal events, this dress is a gorgeous option for you to just put on and relax.

Maxi dress

Embrace laid-back charm with a maxi dress. Casual day outs, picnics, or a beach vacation, this flowing, ankle-length dress offers comfort and style. Versatile in its simplicity, a maxi dress effortlessly transitions from day to night with changes in accessories. Replace your beaded necklace during the day with a dainty one for the night and you are ready!

Shift dress

The shift dress is a versatile silhouette that suits various body types. Its straight, neutral lines make it an easy choice for both casual and formal settings. Pair it with heels for a polished look or sneakers for a sporty vibe. This wardrobe staple effortlessly adapts to your style needs and makes you look fashionable with minimum effort.

Shirt dress

Looking smart and well put-together will never be an issue with a nice shirt dress in your closet. You can not only wear it as a dress with sneakers and a hat, you can tuck it in and wear it with trousers as well. For a polished and put-together look, pair it with heels and cinch your waist with a statement belt.
