  Gypsies (or Romanis, as they prefer to be referred to today) have long been recognized for their vibrant styles that feature bright flashes of colors. Gypsy dress is a recent expression of fashion's fascination with this particular ethnic group that has often been excluded and vilified throughout history.

  No matter their style - be it flowing maxis with flower prints, or fun sundresses adorned with tassels, these garments are a combination of a vibrant spirit and a rich heritage.

  Boho Dresses

  Bohemian dresses are lightweight clothes that can be draped easily all the way to the mid-thighs or ankles, often featuring high-waisted skirts or dresses that have peasant tops, fringed sandals, ethnic fabrics with embellishments or embroidery and fringed fringes. Their inspiration can be traced back further like to the nomadic Romani people from France who inspired this relaxed style in the early days of its development.

  Bohemian fashion, which is popular and trendy today, includes dresses that feature multi-tiered fabric that flows effortlessly around the wearer. Modern boho dresses come in a variety of fabrics and colors to meet every mood or occasion; select patterns or floral clothes to get that classic bohemian look. Pair it with wide brimmed hat and an embroidered bag to truly embody an ethereal look.

  Bohemian styles can be worn all year long. A summery floral wrap dress can be worn in flat shoes and with a chic fedora; in winter months layer it up with big knit cardigans once the temperature begins to drop - for added festival appeal finish it off with a flower crowns or beaded bolero heads!

  Romani Dresses

  Romani dresses are elegant with a high neckline and column skirt that shape the body in a stunning manner, making this dress perfect for any celebration or special event. Pair this elegant piece with simple sandals and stylish earrings for a gorgeous outfit, or add some warmth by wearing a cardigan like Modcloth's Charter School Cardigan in multiple designs and colors for more warmth. The floral pattern complements perfectly your Romani dress!

  Romani women usually wear long pleated skirts that have colorful patterns and decorated with fringes and other ornaments and textures along with long pleated aprons adorned with decorative pockets and, for married women, headbands as signs of modesty and social status.

  Roma people are a diversifying people group that has a myriad of cultural traditions and styles which are all influenced by the social group they are part of. Therefore, style choices often depend on following trends accepted by their community and can place stress on individuals to look attractive and feminine, which can lead to self-image problems and elevated stress levels.

  Roma people have historically been targeted and discriminated against, often considered criminals who commit minor theft in poor conditions. Yet these resilient people have managed to move across Europe for millennia despite the discrimination and prejudice.
