How to dress for a formal event

Posted by Martin Yan on

Going to a formal event and need to know what to wear?

List of items needed: dress, shoes, undergarments, hose/loose stockings.

But the right clothing is often the finishing touch that attracts other's eyes. A woman should dress in formal wear at a formal event because it's the right thing to do.

For an event, a well-fitting, classic, and timeless dress is recommended.

Choose one that fits well for your body type, and is flattering.

When looking for shoes, go for something that goes with the dress or is neutral in color.

Make sure both pieces are comfortable and elegant.

No one around on the dance floor will care how you dance in your flats.

Invest in a dress that can be easily added to your wardrobe.

Don't wear it to just one occasion.

People will appreciate and like you more than they would someone who is always wearing the same thing.

When wearing an all-white dress to an event, be mindful of what you are wearing; are you wearing bright or completely opposite colors to the dress?

When wearing a red dress on valents day, be mindful of who you are around.

If you love wearing bright colors, or had a red hat on, don't wear a red dress.

Wear clothes that you feel good about for a formal event and enjoy the event.
