Pockets for Sample

Pockets

Pockets on dresses can greatly influence both style and function, adding practicality or enhancing the garment's aesthetic.

1. Side-Seam Pockets: Hidden in the seams, these pockets are subtle and practical, allowing for storage without affecting the silhouette of the dress. However, they can add bulk around the hips if overfilled or placed on a fitted dress.

2. Patch Pockets: Sewn onto the outside of the dress, patch pockets create a more casual, laid-back look. They add visual interest and, depending on their placement, can draw attention to the hips or chest.

3. Flap Pockets: With an added flap, these pockets are often seen on shirt dresses and tailored styles. They add structure and a utilitarian feel, while drawing attention to the areas where they are placed.

4. Decorative Pockets: Some dresses feature faux pockets purely for design. These add style without function, creating a more polished look while maintaining a clean silhouette.

The placement and style of pockets can impact a dress’s overall balance, either enhancing curves or creating practical yet stylish features.
