How to wear thigh high slit gown

Deepika Padukone in Race 2

Deepika Padukone looks classy in the first look of Race 2. The actress dons a white gown with a thigh high slit and a red lippy. The thigh slit trend was brought in vogue by Angelina Jolie. She gave stellar red carpet appearances donning this style. Here is how to carry this trend with élan:

Style: Don a slit gown for parties and events. Look for flowy materials like chiffon to add a feminine grace to your look. Do not buy a gown that clings to your legs. For a day-to-day look opt for a formal skirt with a slit.

Shoes: If you are blessed with a long height like Deepika or Angelina you can wear pumps but if you are short wear sky high stilettos to achieve the right posture.

Legs: Your legs play the most important role in this look. So exercise your thighs and calves before donning this number. Also insure your legs are waxed and moisturised well. Apply some shimmering highlighter to make them look glam.

Makeup and hair: Highlight your eyes or lips. Let your dress do the talking. Opt for a soft hairdo or keep your hair open in soft beachy waves.

Movement: Move in fluid lady like manner holding the gown softly with your hand, to ensure the slit and your leg is visible. Also be confident as you move you do not want to look like an awkward mess in such a sexy number.

Accessories: Keep your accessories to the bare minimum. Add classic jewellery like diamond studs or pearl earrings. You can opt for a belt to show your waistline. Avoid carrying a clutch.

Important: Do not sit open legged if you do not want to flash your undies!
