Abstract:  Dress has been a focus in clothing design, with a remarkable market prospect. Previously, research and discussion of dress design mostly dwelt upon the structural or technical level. In this paper, the design concepts and methods of contemporary dress styles are explored from two perspectives, namely, aesthetics and function. It is advocated to abandon trivial structural changes and give up large and heavy dress styles, which limit freedom to move. It is proposed as a principle that contemporary dress design should enhance female charisma and provide freedom of physical movement.

Key words: contemporary dress, structural design, female charisma, freedom of movement
