Now, a dress that transforms from office wear to party outfit

Now, a dress that transforms from office wear to party outfit

 

London, Aug 8 (PTI) Planning to attend a party after work? You can save time by becoming evening glamorous without going home to primp -- thanks to scientists who have designed a dress that transforms between office wear to party outfit.
According to its designers, the Work to Flirt dress could become a must-have outfit for every girl-about-town and clever tailoring transforms it to expose a little cleavage, a shorter, sexier skirt and split and a flash of back cleavage.

"The dress has been really well received, with women saying that it absolutely takes the hassle out of planning their date outfits. Many have joked that it helps them transform in a Superman style make-over.

"Due to the hectic lifestyles that we are all leading these days, I believe that in the future more fashion will be focused on two-in-one versatile outfits that can be altered to suit different occasions," 'The Daily Telegraph' quoted lead designer Tansy Hamley of DatingDirect.Com as saying.

In fact, DatingDirect.Com surveyed 1,000 singles from across Britain and the research found that 42 per cent would prefer not to wear their office clothes while on an after work date. Of the women questioned, 68 per cent said that taking an outfit to work for a date was a hassle.

The research also showed that over a third of singles turned down a date in the past because they were not happy with their work outfit. Over half of people admitted to shopping in their lunch hour to find an outfit appropriate for a date.

Four out of 10 men surveyed also admitted that they would be disappointed if their date turned up in work attire. PTI
