TAFFETTA DRESSES
Taffeta dresses in the Hexeline range
Taffeta dresses have been delighting with their sophisticated look for centuries. The name comes from the Persian word "taftan", meaning "silk-woven fabric".
And indeed, it is worth knowing that traditionally it was a silk fabric. Nowadays, however, other fibres, such as nylon or polyester, are often used in its production. As a result, it has become available to a wider audience. In addition, it is more durable and long-lasting. The fabric is more resistant to abrasion and tearing, so it can look like new for many years.
Elegant taffeta dresses by Hexeline stand out for their quality. Their designs are unique, with thoughtful cuts and attention to detail. They make an impression from the very first glance, making every outfit completely unique.
Properties of taffeta
Taffeta is used especially in the creation of formal and cocktail dresses. It is characterised by its density, plasticity and stiffness. It allows for the creation of interesting shapes and forms. At the same time, it is very durable.
It shimmers and rustles impressively when in motion. It drapes well and returns to its original shape even after creasing. Interestingly, depending on the angle of view, it can take on a slightly different shade.
For these reasons, so many people look for taffeta dresses for weddings and other occasions. Of course, a lot depends on the type of fabric used for sewing. Some of them are smooth, delicate and quite thin, but at the same time incredibly durable. Others are, for example, creased (and very pleasant to the touch), embroidered, printed or multicoloured.
Taffeta dresses for weddings? Not only!
The selection of elegant taffeta dresses is not only intended for larger events. Many people wear them every day, e.g. to the office. It all depends on the accessories and the occasion for which we choose a taffeta dress. However, the three most popular types are:
-
Evening dresses - usually long or midi styles, with an elegant look, complex construction and multiple layers that drape beautifully when in motion;
-
Wedding dresses - from simple, classic models to more decorative and complex cuts with frills or lace;
-
Cocktail dresses - ideal for less formal parties and social gatherings, usually knee-length or slightly above, which adds lightness. They come in various styles, from simple to decorative.
Since this fabric made its debut on the textile market, it has been widely used by designers. They most often use it to create formal, evening and ball gowns. However, the density of this fabric, its different varieties and colour options mean that we can find it in many versions, including slightly more casual ones. This is due to its functionality. A taffeta dress will be extremely strong and resistant to mechanical damage. In addition, this fabric has the ability to repel water, making it less prone to staining.

How to wear elegant Hexeline taffeta dresses? You can wear them on their own with the right footwear (classic high heels, heeled sandals, comfortable ballet flats or elegant pumps will all work well), or with accessories. The most popular accessories are those that are fairly subdued and do not overwhelm the overall look. Delicate earrings, classic pearls and elegant bracelets are therefore particularly recommended. As a rule, taffeta dresses are not worn with overly flashy, chunky jewellery, as the fabric is quite rich and striking.
Another type of accessory is outerwear. It is worth choosing ones that will not detract from the elegant look of the dress. For cooler days, classic trench coats, coats or stylish jackets will be appropriate. When the occasion is a little more formal and, for example, we are wearing a taffeta dress to a wedding, a better choice would be an elegant evening coat or fur coat, which will add even more chic.
