Hood Dress Trend 2023

As fashion continues to evolve and trends come in and out of style, one trend that is sure to be making a comeback in 2023 is the hooded dress. Grace Jones famously wore it back in Paris in 1986 at Alaïa’s Spring haute couture show, but they’ve recently gained popularity as an edgy way to make a statement. 

Hooded dresses are perfect for those who want to add some edge and attitude into their wardrobe without compromising on comfort or style. Normally the hood style is very urban and street, but as a dress it can create an interesting silhouette that can instantly elevate your look to something glamorous. Whether you opt for a sleek ribbed mini-dress with long sleeves or something like a slinky long black hooded dress – there’s no wrong way to rock this trend! 

Shiny Hooded Dresses

If you’re looking for something eye-catching and dramatic then think silver shiny metallics, metallic dresses were sparkling on shows, from sleek jumpsuits to hooded bodycon dresses, there’s no denying that these shimmery styles will always turn heads.

Another bonus when it comes to wearing metallics? They’re incredibly glitzy - whether it's billowing sleeves or an asymmetric hemline giving shape to your figure - adding texture makes any dress much more interesting than traditional fabrics like satin or polyester. Plus if you want to keep it simple then all you need are some minimal accessories such as stud earrings or delicate bangles – let your dress do all the talking!

Drapey Hooded Dresses

There was plenty of drape on recent shows for 2023.

Draping dresses are characterized by soft fabrics that flow down from an empire waistline or natural waistline to create a graceful silhouette. The fabric is usually gathered at certain points along the dress’s length which adds texture and interest to its design. Depending on how much fabric you use, this style of dress can range from light and airy to more heavy cowling drape - giving you endless options for creating your perfect look!

When wearing a draping dress for 2023, opt for trending colours like saffron red, lavender, olive green or white which all evoke feelings of femininity and romance. You can also choose bolder shades such as red or yellow if you want something more dramatic yet still elegant. For accessories think about pairing your drape with strappy sandals or block heels in neutral colours such as nude or white – these shades always look great against any colour of drape!

To really take advantage of this trend in 2023 try experimenting different fabrics such as velvet, giving off vintage vibes whilst still looking super cool urban, modern & groovy at the same time!
