How to choose the perfect evening dress
Pick an evening dress that suits the occasion, your shape and your comfort.
The perfect evening dress is the one you forget you are wearing because you feel great in it.
Know the occasion
A family dinner, an engagement party or a wedding? Midi and maxi lengths work almost everywhere. Satin or crepe dresses with sleeves move easily from dinner to a wedding hall, and a wide-leg jumpsuit is a smart choice when you want comfort.
Flatter your shape
Wrap dresses define the waist, A-line skirts balance the hips and straight cuts suit a slim frame. A belt or a long open jacket changes the proportions in seconds.
Mind the details
Check that the fabric moves well when you sit and walk, carry a light wrap for air-conditioned halls, and choose shoes you can stand in all evening.
