The Metallic style has come back..this is definitely one trend that is very flattering! Metallic colors are very flattering to any woman with any skin tone, you can really create a sexy look instantly with a simple metallic dress because metallic tones always are extremely pleasing to the eye and stand out!
Celebs Wearing the Metallic Trend:
Hayden’s Dress: Love the golden honey tone of this dress as well as the subtle sexy slit going down the chest!
Jennifer’s Dress: Love the Jagged edge of this metallic dress, very modern and has great sex appeal!
Hilary’s Dress: This is a very simple metallic dress that is very flattering in a non sexy way but instead in a more feminine and conservative way.
What are your thoughts on metallics? Would you wear these dresses?

i dont really fancy any metallics.
guest
Not a fan. I think the green one makes her look awkward.
guest
i personally wouldnt wear it, but if it looks good on you, go for it.
guest
i don’t like it at all.
guest
don’t really like it.
guest
the only metallic i’ll wear are peeptoe flats or ballerina flats.
guest
i wouldn’t wear a metallic dress but i would definitely wear metallic sandals or maybe even a cute metallic bag. :]
guest
The green one is hideous.
Yet I love the other two.Metallic = maybe
guest

uhm.
hell to the naw
i wouldn’t wear it
but hilary looks good + hayden is kinda borderline.
guest
I’d wear Hayden’s dress.. the others.. I don’t think so. Are shoulder pads coming in again too?
guest
I’d only wear it if I still went out to clubs. Other than that, no.
guest
Yepp I love metallic!

Ugh this is going to get tacky quicker than those shoes Jennifer is wearing, not to mention her shoulder pads. Sorry, I’m not a fan!
guest
the colors would work so much better on different dress designs
the designs of those dresses are horrible,.
guest
metallic looks good on some people to a certain extend.
guest
love em! the green one is a bit strange
but i love metallic anything
guest
Oh good. The essence of boring silver car in clothing form. Just add silver crocs.
Fun fact: Standing out isn’t always a good thing.

metallics hues may flatter skin tones, but they also reflect light. everywhere. so no, they’re not really universally flattering, unless you’re trying to seem much larger than you actually are by looking like a shining beacon for all the little non-metallic-wearing moths to flock to.
additionally, unless it’s an understated metallic (like hayden’s) then the light-reflecting quality also has the tendency to make the body look 2-dimensional at times (like hilary’s), or too busy if too many looks are all fighting for center stage (like jennifer… metallic? paisley? jagged hem? hardcore heels? megatron shoulders?).
i think it could work in doses. small ones.

i only like Hilary’s. it’s a good shade and isn’t really too shocking and striking like the other two.
the green one… eeeeh.
Hayden’s, i’d have second thoughts if i was on my way out wearing that for a night out.
guest
Maybe silver! =)
guest
metallic looks good, but that dress on jennifer connelly makes her look like a football star…those shoulders are hideous…
guest
Nope.
guest
Probably not… except Hayden’s dress. I love it… minus that cut in the middle.

Oooh, shiny. I think Hilary’s dress is the only pretty one, but it’s still a little too flashy.

guest

No wayyy, I feel too flashy and too showy to wear one…plus, I’ve never felt very…adult…in purple sparkles. Hiliary looks great though – Hayden looks nice too but I think the dress looks a little too fitted. Cute idea though!

guest
I’d wear Blue Metallic.

guest
that green one is hideous

I like metallic better on shoes. Personally, less is more.
guest
I wouldn’t wear any of them. It’s not the fact that they’re metallic. They’re just… ugly.
guest
No…

hilary looks good but the other two are ehhh
guest
They are totally cute. But way too flashy for everydaywear. I mean I get if you want to stand out, but there are ocassions for everything and metallic isn’t casual, unless it’s like a metallic tank paired with jeans and flip flops or something. And I still think not everyone can pull it off lol. I would wear metallic clothing for a party, special event, or the club though. This way it is appropriate for the occassion, but shiny enough to still stand out.
guest
I really like Hilary’s Dress. The purple is super cute.
xo
guest
i think it looks alright. i wanna try one on.
guest
Nice. But I prob wouldn’t wear it. Iuno – maybe. Seems a bit too out there for me though.
guest
i love this trend! especially gold! i would do it for dresses and shoes.

I love Hayden’s dress.

Not a big fan. I don’t think it makes anyone look conservative… It kind of draws attention to you, instead of being a little more subtle.

It really depends on the dress. The third dress is great, but the first two are just…ugh.
