Discover beautiful dark green dresses and how to style them with pretty accessories not only for casual outfits but also for festive looks.
The green color is one of my favorite and timeless selections for dresses. And, there are many reasons for this. Firstly, there are so many different green shades for every season. So, vivid lighter, or soft pastel greens are perfect for spring and summer green dresses. And, dark green shades are ideal for winter elegant green dresses. Plus, it’s a fabulous choice both for casual and formal looks.
In art and history, green was the color of wealth, prosperity, and hope. During the Medieval Age and Renaissance in Europe, merchants and bankers wore green. It’s not a coincidence that both Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci and the bride in the Arnolfini portrait by Jan van Eyck wear green dresses. Plus, there are so many other famous paintings of women in green dresses. For example, “Camille (The Woman in the Green Dress)” by Claude Monet, “The Green Gown” by Thomas Edwin Mostyn, “Young Lady with Gloves (Girl in a Green Dress)” by Tamara de Lempicka, etc. Thus, green belongs to the popular selections for formal and cocktail dresses. So, the next time you have doubts about wearing a green dress, just think that you will have a really classy look in it.
