Cocktail dress
November 8th, 2013
For this weekend we’ve chosen three party dresses to suit any budget; they also look quite demure at a glance, but actually have twist, whether it be cut outs, or a delicate lace.

Black party dresses are classics but who says fuschia can’t be either! The Carmen Marc Valvo Sleeved Lace Cocktail Dress will set you apart from the crowd with its luxurious lace and shocking pink party dress colour. Add minimal jewellery and hot pink lipstick for a sophisticated but modern party look.

Dark Pink is a brand we follow for its unique take on LBDs. Right on trend, the See Through Dress is a real show stopper, people will definitely comment about its distinctive sequin pattern. Mix it up with bright accessories.

The NLY Dare Dress isn’t called Dare for any reason. This short party dress is almost backless with a lace panel, and cut out lace sides. Turn heads in this illusion dress, but don’t tell anyone it’s a bargain to rent from £29!

These three red dresses have everything going for them. From £29 to £109 they are perfect for any event you have coming up. Sequins, velvet and lace, they scream texture. So go on, rent red dresses and you’ll never stop dancing the night away!

NLY Sway Dress – Sleeves, a backless draped detail and soft, luxurious velvet. What more could you ask for?! This LRD looks like any other red bodycon dress from the front, but with a twirl and a flick of your hair, a sexy drape detail reveals itself at the back. This red dress is sure to sway anyone’s opinion that you will, without a doubt, look drop dead gorgeous in it.

Honor Gold Lola Dress – The Kinks sang about Lola drinking champagne and dancing all night, and we reckon that this red dress is called Lola for that very reason; head straight for the dance floor on a night out. The three quarter length sleeves add a fun flirty element to the red dress, while the lace oozes sex appeal.

NLY Finale Dress – And for our grand final, let us introduce the Finale dress! You can’t help but shimmer in this red prom dress. The sequins catch the light and everyone’s attention. Who says you need a disco ball, this red dress will lure everyone onto the dance floor!
We can’t decide which our favourite is, so we’ll just have to leave it up to you to decide. If we’ve got you in the mood for LRDs, check out our other red dresses for more inspiration.

Greetings GMD Blog Readers! Buying Assistant Sophie writing today. My birthday is coming up at the beginning of November and I need a dress. The most important factors about the dress:
1. Let’s start with the obvious: my party’s at night so I need an evening dress!
2. I’m not going to lie, I want my friends to be jealous and what better way to do that than with a designer evening dress.
3. The weather’s getting cold so a dress with sleeves sounds like a good option.
4. I’m starting the night in a restaurant with my family so need a ‘family-friendly’ dinner dress.
5. Straight after dinner I’ll be meeting friends in London’s West End where we’ll dance the night away: hello party dress!
There are so many to choose from but I said to myself that I should aim for a top three. Having looked at the evening dresses online in the ‘It’s My Birthday’ collection, and after some debate in the office I gave the list I made to our fabulous styling team who helped me pick The Top Three. You can message them directly at: enquiries@girlmeetsdress.com Over the next few weeks, as the big day draws closer, I’ll be revealing the contenders. Here’s the first one!

I fell in love with the Valerie Junifer dress the moment I saw it, there was a lot of oohing and aahing! It is incredibly flattering. The sequins will shimmer as the dancing gets under way in the club, and the construction of the sleeves mean that I won’t get too hot. I’ll have the option of wearing tights with it during dinner and then as soon as I’m with my friends I can whip them off. This dress has started some serious competition, the other contenders better watch out!

She currently runs Fashion Is Our Religion which focuses on fashion trends, new collections, styling as well as beauty and events. Here Amie talks us through her top 5 cocktail dresses to hire online.
This
cocktail dress from Alice and Olivia is the perfect little number for the upcoming party season; it just wouldn’t be complete without glitz and glamour! I adore the shimmery pale gold sequins, which make it ideal to wear for after hours cocktail events or at Christmas parties. This
cocktail dress with it’s high neck and long sleeves is understated but sexy at the same time with cut out mesh detailing on the back; a classy way of showing off some skin. Just team with simple black ankle boots and accessories for a sultry yet edgy look.
This collection of
cocktail dresses wouldn’t be complete without a little black dress or two! The first is a classic shift dress from By Malene Birger. Another sparkly number that caught my eye, but with much simpler styling with embellished sleeves and a strip of embellishment down the front; the delicate hint of sparkle just makes the dress stand out of the crowd from your standard LBDs. With full length sleeves, keyhole fastening and a mini flared hemline, this is a chic and flattering cocktail dress that will look perfect with metallic high heels and matching accessories.
Underwear as outerwear has been one of the biggest trends and has graced numerous catwalks this year. Nicole Miller has encapsulated this
trend into one dress and I have fallen completely in love with it. This
cocktail dress is adorned in beautiful black lace detailing with scalloped edges that compliments the nude fabric underneath. This
cocktail dress looks like it has sauntered straight out of the boudoir and oozes sex appeal and romanticism. Pair with some sky high leather ankle boots and jacket to punk up this outfit for this season’s latest pretty/tough trend.
Versace is quintessentially known for its bold prints and extravagant embellishments, more is always more! Versace doesn’t disappoint with this stand-out LBD. The gold embellishment is reminiscent of Gatsby’s 1920’s which pairs nicely with Versace’s ethos of opulence and glamour. Wear with simple accessories and barely there heels as this
cocktail dress makes the statement all by itself.
Last but not least is this sophisticated Diane Von Furstenberg dress. This is the perfect versatile piece that can be worn from day to night. With draping in all the right places this
cocktail dress will skim over all your curves and makes it the ideal dress for any body shape. In a luxurious raspberry colour, this ultra feminine yet simplistic dress will be a hit at the office as well as after hours, If you have no time to head back home before an event, this is the ideal
cocktail dress for you; just bring a change of dressier accessories, a statement lipstick and you are ready to go!
