About Cocktail Dresses:- From runway shows to movies, cocktail dresses are often on display. With colorful fabrics and artistic designs, it has been the clothing staple for a night out with friends or even dinner with parents. It has now become a piece of clothing that every young woman must own and collect. Cocktail dresses have a long history dating back to the 1920s and continues on today, with new designers creating and reinventing modern looks
History:
- Cocktail dresses first came about in the 1920s, during prohibition when alcohol drinking was illegal. Under the guise of a party, women socialized with men, wearing clothes that were a cross between evening wear and day clothes. Cocktail dresses were designed in a style that is now associated with the flappers. Back then, the length was more conservative, grazing the knees and even down to the ankles
Significance:
- The cocktail dress is important because it is usually a symbol of socialization. It is worn when the occasion calls for drinking and talking with friends, as opposed to a formal dinner. It is more casual than evening wear but more glamorous than regular day clothing. It is considered semi-formal wear
Features:
- Back then, cocktail dresses were beaded and had a lot of fringe. Different kinds of material were also used in making the dresses, like sequins, velvet and gauze. Now, various materials are also used in making these dresses look creative. These dresses have surged in popularity because people are more open to the idea of cocktail dresses than they were a couple of decades ago. Various lengths and styles are experimented with, going from dangerously short to long and sweeping
Misconceptions:
- Cocktail dresses were a sign of irreverence because of various reasons. They were popularized by flappers and became a symbol of speakeasies and underground parties. The dress designs went against the usual design of formal wear. The concept itself slowly entered the mainstream as designers took inspirations from different parts of history, making the cocktail dress a sign of creativity and personality
Expert Insight:
- Television shows and movies displaying clothing ranging anywhere from the flamboyant to the classic have made cocktail dresses the norm to wear at parties and various social events. Designers usually have a category of cocktail dresses incorporated to their line. Leading designers include Anna Sui, whose work is known for the blend of colors and materials, as well as Betsey Johnson, who is known to fuse classic and modern together
How to Dress for a Cocktail Party - Women:
- Think about your invitation. If it came by phone or e-mail, chances are it's a more casual affair. If you received a formal invitation, and especially if the event benefits a charity or association, consider it a dressier affair
- Choose dress and skirt lengths from mini to just above the ankles. Save anything resembling a full-length sequined gown for a different occasion
- Choose fabric according to the season. Wool and wool blends are perfect for fall and winter; satin, silk, rayon and fine-gauge knits are great for the spring and summer months. These materials can be dressed up or down with jewelry, handbags, shoes, wraps and hairstyles
- Attend a more formal after-work party in a business suit, or if you wear more casual clothes to work, bring an outfit to change into. A black wool dress with stockings and pumps is a simple solution for fall or winter. Pair a strapless or spaghetti-strap dress with an embroidered cardigan and slingback pumps or strappy sandals for a spring or summer event
- Head to a more casual after-work gathering in a dressy-casual outfit. Pair a wool skirt with a fitted turtleneck and leather flats for winter parties. Consider a fine-knit twinset, slim satin pants and low-heeled mules in the summer
- Wear a printed A-line sundress to a cocktail party on a weekend afternoon. A party scheduled for a weekend evening warrants a more flirty or elegant ensemble. Pair a colorful satin or silk empire-waist dress with a velvet or silk shoulder wrap
- Accessorize. Show off your gold charm bracelet or favorite pair of dangling earrings. Match hair adornments and a handbag to the motif, material or colors in your outfit

01-25-2012- Other Thoughts: This dress is soooo beautiful!! I am planning a wedding for June, and I ordered two of them for my maids of honor. Everyone was right. They are MUCH more beautiful in person. When I opened the box and pulled the dresses out, I literally could not stop looking at them with the hugest grin on my face. Part of me wishes they were mine and not my maids of honors. I even received a free little gift that I will save for the honeymoon. =) <br/>So if anyone is considering ordering this dress, do not hesitate to buy! You will be happy with your decision. <br/>I will be sure to post pictures of the wedding later.
