Chica Styling Dungarees (women)
When styling dungarees for a sporty look, we suggest you best go for a bold and colorful print which is best styled by having the pants a little bit above the ankle. You can then go for a white T-shirt which can either be plain or with a few texts on it and then knock it off with a white pair of sneakers. We suggested going for a colorful print because the more colorful the print is, the more bold the style comes out.
Styling Dungarees (men)
For men, the dungarees are best styled by also having the pants above the ankle as well just like that of the sporty chic, but one of the bibs should be left unbuttoned for a killer stylish appearance. It can be knocked of a pair of white sneakers and face cap or hat for the finish. African inspired dungarees can also be styled for classy ladies by having the pants styled like that of a flare pants which opens more breathing space to the legs. This look can be fired up with a pair of heels and a touch of light jewelries which mustn’t be too much. Styling the African inspired dungarees are best for the bold and daring fashionista and not for the fainthearted ones.
