Off-Shoulder Dress Wiki

A dress that is naturally designed with a low and wide-cut neckline, not covering the shoulders or upper chest area, leaving them bare.

Off-shoulder dresses are meant to emphasize and accentuate the wearer's shoulders, collarbone, and neck (or nape), with the sleeves of an off-shoulder dress sitting on the upper arms instead of on top of the shoulders.

Rice Shower's dress and most fanart depictions of Kagerou's dress are some of the best examples of this tag (ie. post #4560423 and post #2866775, respectively).

Other good examples of this tag include post #4839011, post #4733804, post #4637276, post #4565120, post #3958552, post #3728514, post #4037671, post #3941465, etc.

For the dress to qualify for this tag: The sleeves must be attached to the dress. If they are not, then it is a strapless dress with detached sleeves.

Do not use this tag if a jacket or coat worn along with a dress is worn hanging off the arms, but the dress itself does not fit the above criteria that qualifies it as an off-shoulder dress (ie. post #4842407, post #5056599, post #4946909, post #4590647, post #4462891, etc.). Those should be tagged as off shoulder instead.

Off-shoulder dresses, strapless dresses, and sleeveless dresses are mutually exclusive to each other. Off-shoulder dress is also mutually exclusive to single-shoulder dress.
