Whether attending a work function or hitting your local country club for drinks, if you find yourself in need of a cocktail dress, don’t panic. There are no set rules when choosing a cocktail dress. The right dress will make you look and feel beautiful. And finding it is easy if you follow these steps.
Know your body shape and buy something that flatters that shape. You want to be comfortable in your cocktail dress, not spend the evening tugging and pulling an ill-fitting dress.
Decide on a budget. There is a wide range of prices when it comes to cocktail dresses. Know your limits and communicate them to the salespeople when shopping so they don’t hook you on an expensive dress that you can’t afford.
Rethink a bright-colored dress. Everyone will remember a bold red or sparkling blue dress, as they are gorgeous colors and you’ll look magnificent. However, if you plan to get multiple wears out of your dress, pick a basic color. You can completely change the look of the dress by adding different accessories. This one you can wear numerous times, and no one will know it’s not new.
Consider the events you are attending. Know what type of atmosphere and who will be there. This will help determine how formal of a cocktail dress you need.
Ask for help. The salespeople are there to help you, so don’t be afraid to ask their opinions. And since they don’t know you, they are more likely to be honest and tell you if something doesn’t look good.
