Not all purple dresses are created equal. The key to finding your most flattering shade lies in understanding your personal undertones. Those with cool undertones tend to look best in bluish-purple hues, while warmer complexions shine in richer, more red-based purple tones.
"The right purple dress can be truly transformative," says fashion stylist David Michaels. "It's all about selecting a shade that complements your natural coloring and brings out the best in your features."
For a foolproof starting point, the Rown Aubergine Midi Dress is a gorgeous option that flatters a variety of skin tones. Its deep, jewel-toned hue is universally flattering and pairs beautifully with metallic accessories.

Silhouette Secrets: Accentuating Your Best Assets

When it comes to purple dresses, the silhouette you choose can make all the difference. Certain cuts and styles flatter specific body types more than others, so it's important to understand which shapes work best for you.
If you have an hourglass figure, a wrap dress or fit-and-flare style can help accentuate your curves in all the right places. Those with a pear-shaped frame may want to opt for an A-line or empire waist dress to balance proportions. And for petite frames, a sheath or shift dress can create the illusion of a longer, leaner silhouette.
For a versatile option that flatters a variety of body types, the Rown Amethyst Midi Dress features a timeless wrap-style design and a cinched waist that creates a stunning, figure-flattering effect.
