A Guide for Women: What to Wear to a Party (+OUTFIT IDEAS) | Nana Jacqueline

Stepping out for an evening party can be a thrilling experience, and choosing the perfect outfit is a crucial part of the preparation. Whether you're attending a formal gala, a casual dinner party, or a themed celebration, the right ensemble can make you feel confident and stylish. In this blog post, we will explore various aspects of dressing for evening parties, from choosing the right outfit to accessorizing and exploring outfit ideas for different party types. We will also address common questions and provide expert tips to help you make a lasting impression.


Choosing the Right Outfit

Figuring out what to wear to a party is no easy feat. There are lights, photography, and street credit at play, which puts pressure on getting it right. Style your outfit to be one you’ll look back on fondly. 

Length and Style

The length of the outfit largely depends on the formality of the event and your personal preference. For more formal parties, opting for a longer length, such as a floor-length gown or a midi dress, can exude elegance and sophistication. On the other hand, for a casual or semi-formal party, you can choose a shorter length, like a mini dress or a skirt and blouse combination, for a playful and flirty look. The style of your outfit should also align with the party's theme and your personal style. Whether you prefer a classic and timeless silhouette or a trendy and fashion-forward design, selecting a style that enhances your figure and makes you feel confident is key. 

Color Choices

Bright and vibrant colors like red, royal blue, or fuchsia can energize the atmosphere and create a lively and celebratory mood. On the other hand, soft pastel hues such as blush pink, mint green, or lavender can lend an air of elegance and sophistication. Neutral tones like black, white, or gray are timeless options that can be easily paired with accessories for a versatile and chic look. Additionally, metallic shades like gold, silver, or bronze can add a touch of glamour and shine to your ensemble. Ultimately, the color choice should reflect your personality, complement your skin tone, and align with the overall ambiance of the party. 

Fabric Choices

The choice of fabric is vital to ensure comfort and enhance the overall appearance of your evening party outfit. Whether you’re looking for silk dresses, velvet, lace, or sequined, understanding the characteristics of different fabrics will empower you to make informed decisions when selecting your attire. There are plenty of options available that can complement your figure, including petite and plus-size pieces. 

Outfit Ideas

Looking for inspiration? We've got you covered. In this section, we'll present a range of outfit ideas for different evening party themes and dress codes.

    Tips When Dressing for an Evening Party

    Do you have an evening party on your calendar? Get excited! We’re sharing a few tips to keep in mind so you can enjoy yourself from the moment you walk through the door. 

    Comfort is Key

    While it's important to look stylish, prioritizing comfort is crucial for an enjoyable evening. Don’t opt for an outfit that feel risky and uncomfortable. You’ll most likely regret it. 

    Less is More

    Finding the right balance between sophistication and over-accessorizing can be challenging. Remember that less is more when it comes to dressing up. You don’t want to overdo it and feel weighed down by your choices.

    Birthday Parties Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Birthdays are special occasions that call for celebration. Whether you're throwing a party for yourself or someone else, it's important to make it a memorable event. Here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you plan the perfect birthday party:

    1. Choose a Theme: Selecting a theme can add excitement and cohesiveness to the party. It could be based on a favorite movie, era, hobby, or even a color scheme. For example, a tropical theme could inspire guests to dress in vibrant colors and Hawaiian shirts.
    2. Decorations: Decorate the venue according to the chosen theme. Balloons, streamers, banners, and table centerpieces can help create a festive atmosphere. Consider incorporating personalized touches, such as photos or artwork, to make the birthday person feel extra special.
    3. Dress Code: Depending on the type of birthday party, you can suggest a dress code to enhance the atmosphere. For a formal affair, guests may dress in cocktail attire or formal wear. For a more casual event, encourage comfortable and stylish attire that aligns with the theme.

    Dressy Events (Engagements, Weddings, Anniversaries...) Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Dressy events like engagements, weddings, and anniversaries are significant milestones that require careful planning and attention to detail. Here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you navigate these special occasions:

    1. Follow the Dress Code: Dress codes for dressy events often include terms like "black tie," "formal," or "cocktail attire." It's essential to understand the dress code and dress accordingly. Black tie typically calls for a floor-length gown for women and a tuxedo or suit for men. Formal or cocktail attire allows for more flexibility, but still requires a polished and sophisticated look.
    2. Choose Appropriate Colors: While white is typically reserved for the bride at weddings, it's best to avoid wearing any outfit that might overshadow or clash with the couple's chosen color scheme. Opt for elegant and complementary colors that suit your skin tone and the event's ambiance.
    3. Accessorize Thoughtfully: Accessories can elevate your outfit and add a personal touch. Consider wearing statement jewelry, a stylish clutch, or a chic hat, depending on the event and your personal style. However, be mindful not to overpower your ensemble with excessive accessories.

    Bachelorette Parties Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Bachelorette parties are a fun and exciting way to celebrate the bride-to-be before her big day. Whether you're the maid of honor or a close friend organizing the event, here are some tips and outfit ideas to make it an unforgettable night:

    1. Plan the Theme: Choose a theme that reflects the bride's personality and preferences. It could be a spa day, a night on the town, a beach getaway, or a themed party like a 70s disco or a glamorous Hollywood night. The theme sets the tone for the party and helps guide the outfit choices. When choosing which colours to wear at a night party, look on social media to find the schemes that look best with all-white party outfits
    2. Fun Accessories: Get creative with fun accessories like tiaras, sashes, veils, or personalized buttons. These items not only make the bride stand out but also create a festive atmosphere for the entire party.
    3. Dress for the Occasion: Depending on the planned activities, dress accordingly. If it's a night out on the town, opt for stylish and trendy attire. For a beach getaway, choose comfortable and breezy outfits. Consider the location, weather, and planned activities to ensure everyone is dressed appropriately.

    Dinner Parties Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Dinner parties offer an opportunity to gather friends and loved ones for an intimate and enjoyable evening. Whether you're hosting or attending a dinner party, here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you make a stylish impression:

    1. Dress Code: Consider the dress code mentioned by the host when deciding what to wear. If there isn't a specific dress code, it's always better to be slightly overdressed than underdressed. Opt for a smart-casual or business casual attire, unless the occasion calls for a more formal outfit.
    2. Choose Comfortable Fabrics: Since dinner parties typically involve sitting, mingling, and enjoying a meal, choose fabrics that allow you to move comfortably. Natural fabrics like cotton, silk, or linen are breathable and can help you feel at ease throughout the evening.
    3. Dress for the Season: Consider the time of year when planning your outfit. Lighter fabrics and colors work well for spring and summer, while richer tones and warmer materials are suitable for fall and winter. Layering can be a stylish and practical option for transitional seasons or venues with varying temperatures.

    Themed Parties Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Themed parties are a fantastic way to infuse creativity and excitement into any gathering. Whether it's a costume party, decade-themed event, or a specific genre, here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you fully embrace the theme:

    1. Research the Theme: Before planning your outfit, research the theme to get a better understanding of the style, colors, and elements associated with it. This will help you create a more authentic and cohesive look.
    2. Accessories and Props: Accessories and props are essential for completing your themed look. They can add authenticity and make your outfit stand out. Consider items like hats, wigs, masks, jewelry, or specific props associated with the theme.
    3. Group Costumes: Coordinate with friends or family members to create a group costume or a cohesive theme. Group costumes add an extra level of fun and create a visual impact when everyone arrives together.

    Boat Parties Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Boat parties are a unique and exhilarating way to celebrate special occasions while enjoying the open water. Whether you're attending a boat party or organizing one, here are some tips and outfit ideas to ensure you're stylish and comfortable:

    1. Check the Dress Code: If the boat party has a specified dress code, make sure to adhere to it. If there isn't a specific dress code mentioned, aim for a nautical or beachy vibe that fits the setting.
    2. Dress in Layers: The weather and temperature on the water can change quickly, so it's a good idea to dress in layers. Bring a lightweight jacket, cardigan, or shawl that you can easily put on or take off as needed.
    3. Bring a Cover-up or Swimwear: If the boat party involves swimming or water activities, bring a stylish cover-up or swimwear that you feel comfortable wearing. Choose designs and fabrics that are suitable for both water and land activities.

    Work Events Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Work events offer opportunities to network, socialize, and showcase your professionalism. Whether it's a conference, a company retreat, or a holiday party, here are some tips and outfit ideas to make a great impression at work events:

    1. Dress Professionally: Even if the dress code is more relaxed, it's important to maintain a professional appearance. Choose well-fitted garments that are appropriate for the work environment. Tailored suits, blazers, dress pants, or knee-length skirts are safe choices for formal work events.
    2. Opt for Classic Colors: When in doubt, stick to classic and neutral colors like black, navy, gray, or beige. These colors exude professionalism and can easily be paired with various accessories.
    3. Add a Pop of Color or Statement Piece: While maintaining a professional look, consider adding a pop of color or a statement piece to showcase your personal style. It could be a colorful blouse, a unique piece of jewelry, or a stylish handbag. However, avoid going overboard with bold or distracting elements.

    90s-Themed Party Tips & Outfit Ideas

    The 90s was a decade known for its distinctive fashion trends and pop culture influences. If you're attending or hosting a 90s-themed party, here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you embrace the nostalgia:

    1. Research 90s Fashion: Familiarize yourself with the iconic fashion trends of the 90s. From grunge to preppy, there were various styles that defined the decade. Research celebrities, movies, and music videos from that era to gather inspiration for your outfit.
    2. Embrace Denim: Denim was a staple of 90s fashion. Consider wearing high-waisted jeans, denim jackets, or denim skirts to capture the essence of the decade. Distressed or acid-washed denim can add an extra touch of authenticity.
    3. Layering and Oversized Clothing: Layering was a prominent trend in the 90s. Combine oversized flannel shirts, band t-shirts, or graphic sweaters with ripped jeans or leggings. Don't be afraid to mix patterns and textures for a more eclectic look.

    2. Embrace Festive Colors: Red, green, gold, and silver are traditional Christmas colors that instantly evoke a festive mood. Incorporate these colors into your outfit through clothing, accessories, or makeup. However, you don't have to limit yourself to these colors—other rich jewel tones or metallics can also create a festive look.
    3. Festive Accessories: Elevate your outfit with festive accessories like statement jewelry, a sparkly clutch, or a holiday-themed scarf. Accessories can add a fun and festive touch to your overall look.

    House Party Tips & Outfit Ideas

    House parties are a great way to gather friends and loved ones in a relaxed and intimate setting. Whether you're hosting or attending a house party, here are some tips and outfit ideas to ensure you're stylish and comfortable

    1. Casual Yet Stylish: House parties typically have a more casual atmosphere, but that doesn't mean you can't dress stylishly. Opt for comfortable yet chic outfits that reflect your personal style. This could be a trendy jumpsuit, a flowy maxi dress, or a well-fitted pair of jeans paired with a fashionable top.
    2. Dress for the Season: Consider the time of year and the weather when planning your outfit. Choose fabrics and layers appropriate for the season. For summer house parties, lightweight and breathable materials are ideal, while for winter gatherings, opt for cozy sweaters or jackets.
    3. Comfortable Shoes: House parties often involve mingling, dancing, or even playing games. Wear comfortable shoes that allow you to move and socialize without discomfort. Flats, stylish sneakers, or low-heeled boots are good options that combine comfort and style.

    Masquerade Party Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Masquerade parties are mysterious and enchanting events where guests wear elaborate masks and elegant attire. If you're attending a masquerade party, here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you create a captivating look

Black, gold, silver, and deep jewel tones like emerald or burgundy are popular choices for masquerade attire.
    2. Embrace Elegance: Masquerade parties have a touch of old-world charm and elegance. Choose dresses or suits with flowing fabrics, intricate lace, or satin accents. Floor-length gowns, tuxedos, or tailored suits are classic options for a masquerade party.
    3. Accessorize Thoughtfully: Enhance your outfit with carefully chosen accessories. Long gloves, statement jewelry, and elaborate headpieces can add a touch of glamour and sophistication. However, be mindful not to overdo it. Let your mask and outfit take center stage.

    Cocktail parties are sophisticated gatherings that require a polished and stylish appearance. Whether it's a corporate cocktail event or a social gathering, here are some tips and outfit ideas to ensure you're dressed appropriately

    1. Dress Semi-Formal: Cocktail parties typically call for semi-formal attire. Opt for a dress or a dressy separates combination that falls between casual and formal. Knee-length or tea-length dresses are generally appropriate, but you can also choose tailored pantsuits or dressy jumpsuits and rompers.
    2. Classic Little Black Dress: The little black dress (LBD) is a timeless and versatile choice for cocktail parties. It can be dressed up or down with the right accessories. Look for a flattering silhouette and add statement jewelry, a clutch, and elegant heels to complete the look.
    3. Embrace Colors and Patterns: Cocktail parties allow you to experiment with colors and patterns beyond the traditional black. Jewel tones, pastels, or vibrant prints can make a statement and show off your personal style. Just ensure that the colors and patterns you choose are appropriate for the occasion.

    Pool Party Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Pool parties are fun and relaxed gatherings where you can enjoy the sun, water, and good company. When attending a pool party, keep these tips and outfit ideas in mind:

    1. Choose Swimwear Wisely: The most essential part of a pool party outfit is your swimwear. Select a swimsuit that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Whether it's a one-piece, bikini, or tankini, choose a style that flatters your body shape and reflects your personal taste.
    2. Cover-Ups and Wraps: Pack a stylish cover-up or wrap that you can wear when you're not in the water. Choose lightweight and breathable materials like cotton or chiffon. Sarongs, kaftans, or flowy maxi dresses are popular choices for poolside cover-ups.
    3. Footwear: Opt for comfortable footwear that is suitable for poolside activities. Flip-flops, sandals, or water shoes are practical choices. Avoid wearing high heels or shoes that could get damaged by water or sand.

    College Party Tips & Outfit Ideas

    College parties are often casual and lively events where you can let loose and have fun with friends. Here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you dress appropriately for a college party

    1. Dress Comfortably: College parties usually involve dancing, socializing, and potentially messy situations. Opt for comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and enjoy the party. Jeans, leggings, or shorts paired with a stylish top are popular choices.
    2. Embrace Casual Style: College parties tend to have a relaxed atmosphere, so you can lean towards a casual and laid-back style. T-shirts, crop tops, flannel shirts, or graphic tees can be paired with jeans or shorts for a comfortable yet fashionable look.
    3. Statement Accessories: Add personality to your outfit with statement accessories. A bold necklace, chunky bracelets, or colorful earrings can elevate a simple ensemble. However, be mindful of the party setting and avoid wearing valuable or sentimental pieces.

    Dinner Party Tips & Outfit Ideas

    Dinner parties offer an opportunity to enjoy good food, conversation, and a refined ambiance. Whether it's a formal dinner party or a casual gathering, here are some tips and outfit ideas to help you dress appropriately:

    1. Understand the Dress Code: Pay attention to the dress code mentioned on the invitation or check with the host if unsure. Dinner parties can range from casual to formal, and it's important to dress accordingly. Formal dinner parties may call for more elegant and sophisticated attire, while casual dinners allow for a more relaxed style.
    2. Elegant Evening Wear: For formal or semi-formal dinner parties, opt for elegant evening wear. Women can choose from floor-length gowns, cocktail dresses, or dressy separates. Men can opt for a suit or a tailored blazer with dress pants
    3. Dress for the Occasion: Consider the occasion and the setting when selecting your outfit. A dinner party at a fine dining restaurant may require a more formal attire, while a casual dinner gathering at a friend's home allows for a more relaxed and comfortable outfit. Adjust your clothing accordingly.

    Do evening dresses have to be long?

    No, evening dresses do not necessarily have to be long. While traditional evening dresses are often floor-length or reach the ankles, modern fashion trends have expanded the options for evening attire. Shorter lengths, such as tea-length or knee-length dresses, are becoming increasingly popular for evening events. These shorter dresses can still be elegant and sophisticated, especially when made with luxurious fabrics and adorned with intricate details. The key is to choose a length that suits your personal style, the formality of the occasion, and makes you feel confident and comfortable. So whether you prefer a sweeping gown or a chic cocktail dress, there are plenty of options to create a stunning evening look.

    What is the difference between an evening dress and a cocktail dress? 

    The main difference between an evening dress and a cocktail dress lies in their formality and length. An evening dress is typically more formal and often floor-length or at least reaches to the ankles. It is suitable for black-tie events or formal occasions. On the other hand, a cocktail dress is shorter in length, usually falling just above or below the knee. It is a versatile option that can be worn for semi-formal or dressy-casual events, such as cocktail parties or weddings.

    What is an evening dress code? 

    The evening dress code is a formal dress code typically associated with upscale events or occasions held in the evening. It is often specified for events such as black-tie galas, formal dinners, charity balls, or high-profile social events. The evening dress code calls for elegant and sophisticated attire that reflects a high level of formality. Women are expected to wear formal evening gowns, floor-length dresses, or dressy cocktail dresses. The attire should be refined, glamorous, and in line with the event's level of formality. Accessories, such as jewelry and evening bags, are often used to enhance the overall elegance of the ensemble. It's important to note that the specific requirements of an evening dress code may vary depending on the event or venue, so it's always advisable to refer to the invitation or consult the event organizer for any specific guidelines.

    What is the best color to wear for an evening party? 

    The best colors for an evening party largely depend on personal preference and the event's theme or dress code. However, classic and timeless options for evening parties include deep jewel tones like navy, burgundy, emerald green, or rich shades of black. These colors exude elegance and sophistication, making them popular choices for formal events. It is also worth considering the color that complements your skin tone and enhances your natural features to ensure you look radiant and confident. The best color to wear at a night party should be the one that makes you feel the best. 

    What to wear to an evening outing? 

    When dressing for an evening outing, it's essential to strike a balance between style and comfort. Start by considering the specific occasion and location to guide your outfit choices. Opt for outfits that make you feel confident and dress to impress. Experiment with fabrics and textures like satin, velvet dresses, or lace to add visual interest. Choose flattering silhouettes that enhance your figure and embrace bold colors or classic neutrals. Accessorize thoughtfully with statement jewelry and a stylish clutch or handbag. Layer appropriately with a jacket or wrap if needed. Pay attention to grooming, ensuring well-groomed hair and makeup that complement your overall look. Lastly, trust your personal style instincts and wear what makes you feel comfortable and confident. Remember, the key is to enjoy yourself while looking fabulous during your evening outing.


    What to wear to an evening event? 

    When attending an evening event, it's important to dress appropriately for the occasion while showcasing your personal style. Opt for elegant and sophisticated attire that reflects the event's formality. A classic choice is a tailored evening dress in a flattering silhouette, such as a floor-length gown or a chic cocktail dress. Choose fabrics like satin, silk, or lace dresses for a luxurious touch. Consider a color palette that suits your complexion and complements the event's ambiance, such as rich jewel tones or timeless black. Complete your look with stylish accessories, including statement jewelry, a clutch or evening bag, and elegant heels. Pay attention to grooming, ensuring your hair and makeup are polished and in line with the overall sophistication of your outfit. Dressing for an evening event is an opportunity to exude confidence and make a lasting impression with your impeccable style.

    Should an evening dress touch the floor? 

    An evening dress is traditionally designed to touch the floor or reach the ankles. However, modern fashion trends have introduced various lengths for evening dresses, like midi dresses. Ultimately, the length of the dress depends on personal style, the formality of the event, and individual comfort. Some may prefer a floor-length gown for a more formal and glamorous look, while others may opt for a tea-length or knee-length dress for a contemporary and chic appearance. It's essential to choose a length that flatters your figure and allows you to move comfortably. If you are going for the shorter option, be sure to wear spandex or Spanx underneath for added comfort.


    Can you wear flats with an evening gown? 

    While heels are a popular choice to pair with an evening gown, it is absolutely acceptable to wear flats as well. Flats can be an excellent option for those who prioritize comfort or have difficulty wearing high heels. Choose elegant and dressy flats that complement your dress, such as embellished or metallic designs. Ballet flats, pointed-toe flats, or strappy sandals can add a touch of sophistication and femininity to your evening gown ensemble.

    Do you wear a watch with an evening dress? 

    Wearing a watch with an evening dress is a matter of personal preference. Watches are often seen as more casual accessories and may not be the ideal choice for a formal or black-tie event. However, if your watch is elegant and complements your overall look, you can certainly wear it. Alternatively, you can opt for more refined and delicate jewelry pieces like bracelets or statement earrings to enhance your evening dress without the presence of a watch.

    Do you wear a bra with an evening gown? 

    The choice to wear a bra with an evening gown depends on the style and structure of the dress, as well as individual comfort and support preferences. Some evening gowns are designed with built-in support or boning, allowing you to go braless. However, if you feel more comfortable and confident with additional support, you can opt for a strapless or adhesive bra that remains discreet under your gown. It is essential to choose a bra that enhances your figure and provides the necessary support without compromising the dress's design.

    Can you wear a bridesmaid dress as an evening gown? 

    In many cases, bridesmaid dresses can be worn as evening gowns. Bridesmaid dresses often have a similar level of formality and elegance as evening dresses, making them suitable for various events. However, it is essential to consider the dress's specific design, color, and embellishments. Some bridesmaid dresses may have distinct features or styles that make them more suited for bridal parties. If the bridesmaid dress aligns with the dress code and overall aesthetic of the event, there is no reason why it cannot be worn as an evening gown

    In conclusion, dressing appropriately for different types of parties and events is a reflection of your personal style and respect for the occasion. By following these tips and outfit ideas, you can confidently attend birthday parties, dressy events, bachelorette parties, dinner parties, themed parties, boat parties, work events, and various other types of gatherings, while looking stylish and feeling comfortable. Remember to consider the dress code, the venue, and the theme of the event to ensure you make the right fashion choices. Ultimately, the key is to dress in a way that makes you feel confident and allows you to fully enjoy the celebration.
