A lot of people are often confused about formal dress codes, and that is quite expected. From black-tie to white-tie to cocktail dressing, there is a big gray area of what is actually acceptable to wear to such formal events. If you’re someone who has a cocktail event to attend and don’t know what to wear, this article is for you. You can also start looking for a scuba fit and flare dress because this is one type of dress you can wear to a cocktail party. And even though it may seem hard to believe, there are rules for cocktail-event dressing.

Read ahead to find out how you can look your best at the next cocktail soirée you attend while adhering to the rules:

Stay away from overly revealing dresses.

The hemline and neck of your dress should be appropriate, which means that low necks and short hems are a strict no-no. Wearing revealing clothes at a cocktail event is considered improper and that is because such an event is not your regular night out. You need to maintain a certain decorum. However, if you still want to flaunt your toned legs, you can opt for a scuba fit and flare dress that is not too risque.

Do not wear jeans.

You need to look elegant and polished at a cocktail event, and that means wearing jeans of any kind is out of the picture. Even if you are a fashionista who can dress up your casual jeans and make them formal event-appropriate, refrain from doing so. If you actually don’t want to wear a dress, wear some sleek trousers paired with a tasteful blouse, some heels, and jewelry.

Avoid too much jewelry.

“Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take at least one thing off.”- You need to follow these very famous words by Coco Chanel when choosing jewelry to pair with any scuba fit and flare dress. It is crucial that you don’t overdo the bling. For instance, do not wear too many statement pieces. If you have a pair of heavy earrings on, forgo the necklace.

It is important to look good in formal events to avoid any form of embarrassment because of what you wear. And bear these tips in mind if you don’t want to waste time choosing and planning what you should wear to a cocktail party.
