The Party Wear Closet - The perfect dress for every occasion

We have all stood in front of our cupboards while trying to pick out an outfit for a party and said the words “ I have nothing to wear! ” We all know the feeling of getting completely flustered when the host says the words “ Wear anything you want” .That is why we are here with this article to help you all build the perfect ‘Party Wear Closet’. So take out a pad and a pen and let's start making another shopping list!

If it's an upscale party, formal weddings, charity galas, fancy holiday parties or a business dinner, you want to typically go with party wear that is dressy,classy and chic. I would recommend going for a tea- or floor-length gown, preferably in materials like satin or taffeta. You can never go wrong with black but if you're in the mood to experiment, try red, navy, or emerald. If you are preparing for an Indian occasion, going for a formal, ethnic outfit is a great choice. Anything from a sari to a kurta set or even a well embroidered cape will make an excellent statement. As for accessories, choose a dramatic necklace or dangling earrings, but never both. When in doubt, opt for time-honored classics, like diamond drops or a pearl necklace, over something too costume-y. Finally an evening bag is a must, invest in one metallic clutch that can look dressed up or down for all your parties

Next up, for an event like a cocktail party, a large dinner or just a night out with your friends, you want to look for some semi formal party wear and make sure it is chic and classy. I would recommend going for a classic LBD dress in rich fabrics like lace, chiffon, and velvet, to elevate the typical black with texture and dimension. You can also branch out to other shades like Jewel tones and icy pastels can be just as redefined in simple silhouettes.For a more ethnic look, try going for an indian dress with beautiful embroidery

Next up, if you're planning on investing on some party wear for your holidays or if you're attending a festive occasion, this list has got you covered. You want to go for another semi formal piece with color, bold jewelry, and sparkly details. You should go all out with sophisticated bling and a vibrant dress or a jacquard skirt with a silky blouse works too.Add some statement accents with a bib necklace, red pumps, velvet embellishments, or a glittery clutch. For a more ethnic look, try pairing a simple kaftan with some statement accessories.

Next, If you're looking for party dresses to wear for an outdoor function like a garden party or a dinner at the beach, we’ve got you covered. Slip on a comfortable maxi dress, a flowy sundress, or a cute shift with a splash of bright jewelry and you're ready with the perfect outfit . If you’re celebrating in a tropical locale, break out an exotic print, and maybe tuck a flower in your hair. For the footwear, ditch the heels, which will sink into sand or grass, instead, opt for gold wedges, beaded sandals, or embellished ballet flats that are posh enough for the occasion. If you're headed to a beach wedding or a rustic rehearsal dinner, go for a flowely, embroidered dress and some ethnic jewelry to really indianise the outfit.

Finally, if the host says the words “ Come as you are.” It means that the party is more casual and laid back. For such an invite, you want to go with some party wear that is casual yet chic. If it's a simple lunch with some friends, you can go for a classic pair of jeans and a simple shirt. If it's a barbecue with your family, we would recommend a simple, short, summer dress with a dainty bracelet. Lastly if you're planning on catching up for dinner, go for a skirt with a nice blouse. We advise you not to opt for options like gym clothes, graphic tees, sweats, and beat-up trainers. Basically, pick some party wear that is comfortable, casual yet a little put-together.

Party wear is a great way to express yourself, whether it's through bold patterns, rich fabrics or classic pieces. We all secretly love the process of finding the perfect outfit, pairing it up with our favourite pair of heels and wearing those earrings that we'd saved for a special occasion. We hope that you will now look for party wear that inspires you, makes you experiment and brings out your inner diva. Now, youre ready to build for yourself a perfect ‘Party Wear Closet’ ! So perfect that you never have to say the words “I have nothing to wear,” again.
