Frequently Asked Questions
What is an evening dress?
It’s a dress made for after-dark occasions, from dinners and parties to galas. It’s dressier than daywear but not automatically black tie, which is a specific dress code that usually calls for a floor-length gown. The invitation tells you which you need.
Does an evening dress have to be floor length?
Not always. The invitation sets the formality, so a sleek midi can suit a dinner or cocktail party, while a gala or black-tie event usually calls for an evening gown. Fabric, finish and styling matter just as much as where your hem lands.
What can I wear over an evening dress?
Match the layer to the neckline and the weather. A soft wrap sits nicely over off-the-shoulder and strapless styles, while a tailored coat or cropped blazer suits sleeker silhouettes. On mild nights, a light shawl is often all you need.
