What is a "shift"?
A shift is a type of dress that hangs loosely from the shoulders and has a straight or slightly fitted silhouette. It is typically made of lightweight and flowing fabrics, such as cotton or silk, and is known for its simplicity and versatility. The dress originated in the 1920s as a fashionable alternative to the more restrictive and heavily embellished styles of the time. Shifts often have minimal or no ornamentation, and they can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. They are a staple of many women's wardrobes and can be worn for a range of events, from casual outings to formal occasions when paired with the right accessories.
