There are lots of ways to get information on what to wear to a cocktail party. You could do an online search or have your close friends, your mom, your sister, or even a cousin over to help you pick out the right outfit from your closet. If there’s a celebrity you have been idolizing, you could also check out photos of dresses available online or from a magazine you have recently bought. You could also drop by a reputable boutique near you and seek their expert advice; their staff would be happy to help you out.

Cocktail parties are one of those events you should always be ready for, so you should be aware of the type of attire that is acceptable for these particular events. It’s worth noting that the right type of attire for a cocktail party is a balance between casual and formal dressing. It’s also essential that you feel comfortable and elegant at the same time. The great thing about cocktail dresses is, they are often versatile; meaning, you could wear them on different occasions. For example, a unique prom dress for 2023 could be worn to other events such as weddings and homecoming dances. This versatility holds true for plus size prom dresses as well. With a wide range of styles, fabrics, and designs available, plus size cocktail dresses can easily be transformed to fit different occasions

If you are looking for a variety of types of beautiful form-fitting dresses that you could easily wear to cocktail parties, then here are some tips that would surely help you:

  • Light & Airy Fabric In Summer – One of the most important factors to consider when dressing up for a cocktail party being held in summer is to pick a dress that is made of light and airy fabric. Go for a fabric such as chiffon or linen, which can give you a fantastic look as well as ensure you remain cool and comfortable at all times.
  • Heavier Fabric In Winter – For cocktail parties held in one of the cold months of winter, go for heavier as well as more rigid fabric such as velvet and wool. These types of fabric will help keep you warm and create for you a more structured look that is appropriate for the occasion, making you look effortlessly chic and elegant.
  • Floral Pattern – If you are looking for a dress that will make a statement, then a floral pattern is a great option. Floral prints are always in style, and they can be both eye-catching and feminine. However, it’s important to keep in mind that cocktail dresses are typically quite short, so you may want to avoid a dress with a busy or overwhelming print. Instead, go for a dress with a simple print in muted colors. This will help you stand out from the crowd without looking overdressed.

How to Choose the Perfect Christmas Party Dress

November 15, 2016 By in Fashion Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , 43 Comments

Christmas party season is looming on the horizon, but choosing the perfect party dress can be as difficult as tracking down that last elusive gift. But it doesn’t have to be that way! Here’s a guide to finding a dress that will make you sparkle this holiday season.

  1. Dress for the occasion

You can’t begin your search for until you know what kind of occasion you’re dressing for.

How formal or casual will the event be? If your invitation doesn’t state a dress code, it’s worth asking the host or some of your friends what they are planning on wearing.

What kinds of activities are planned? If you’ll be having a formal meal, it’s likely that you won’t want to wear anything too fitted, as you may feel restricted when sitting down for an extended period of time. If you’ll be hitting the dance floor, look for a dress that will stay in place, so you can let loose without losing your dignity.

It’s also important to consider whether you want to be able to wear the dress again throughout the year. If so, you may want to avoid seasonal colours and look for sequined dresses in metallic shades that you can wear throughout the year.

 

  1. Finding the perfect fit

Women come in all shapes and sizes, so understanding what suits you is key. There are loads of gorgeous party dresses for the Christmas season, so finding a style to suit every aesthetic and occasion is just a matter of knowing what to look for.

As Christmas is a time for glitz, glamour and gatherings, you should look for a dress that fits you perfectly to ensure that you look and feel your best. Make sure you feel comfortable and confident by choosing a dress that hugs your figure in all the right places. It shouldn’t feel too tight or too loose, which means using the number on the label as a guide only and knowing your measurements.

 

3. Considering colour

When you think of Christmas party dresses it’s likely that a few colours immediately spring to mind. The classic black dress always works for any occasion, as do rich reds and metallic golds and silvers, so which option you go for really depends on your personal style.

 

The LBD may seem like the safe option, but it also gives you the perfect opportunity to play with unique cuts, interesting textures and bold accessories. If you’re going for a sophisticated look, a midi dress with a sweetheart neckline looks effortlessly chic, as does a short dress with long flowing sleeves. Alternatively, for a sexier look, try a maxi dress with a dramatic thigh-high split or a mini dress with short capped sleeves and lace detailing.

 

If colour is your thing, you can’t go wrong with a vibrant red dress. Equally, nothing screams Christmas quite like metallic golds and silvers. Opting for a maxi dress embellished with shimmering beads will allow you to channel your inner vintage goddess, and a sequin-covered dress will instantly hit the right note at a festive party.

 

Top tip: Opt for chic silver tones if you have a cool skin tone and glittering golds if you have a warm skin tone.

 

So then, are you ready to start shopping?
