Tent or Trapeze Silhouette

A Tent or Trapeze silhouette in fashion describes a dress with narrow shoulders that gradually widens somewhat like a pyramid. The key characteristic is that it begins with a narrow design around the neck and shoulders and widens significantly as it goes down creating a voluminous effect. The overall form is often compared to a tent. The silhouette was designed by Yves Saint Laurent for House of Dior in Paris in 1958.
