Cocktail and Party Dresses for Any Occasion
At Anthropologie, we believe in dressing for the occasion – and what occasion calls for more glamor than a cocktail party?
What is considered a cocktail dress?
A cocktail dress is a mid to knee length dress in a dressier fabrication, like silk, sequin, satin and more. As for colors and styles, the possibilities are endless. For a classic look, opt for a little black dress with understated details, or choose a bold and bright hue that speaks to your personal style. We also love dresses with unique embellishments, such as beading or lace, to add a touch of whimsy and elegance to your look.
Can a cocktail dress be long?
When it comes to finding the perfect cocktail dress, length is an essential consideration. We recommend choosing a dress that falls somewhere between knee-length and mid-calf, as this is the most universally accepted length for cocktail hour.
What can I wear over a cocktail dress?
Feeling like you’ll be chilly in your cocktail dress? Don't forget a chic blazer, cape, or cover-up to keep you warm and stylish all night long.
