The ability to dress properly for a party speaks of good style and impeccable taste of a person. Modern designers and stylists advise to think over the outfit in advance so that at the very last moment the problem of urgently finding the right set does not arise. There are several basic recommendations that must be met – this is the observance of the dress code, the appropriateness of the outfit and the style of the celebration. In our article, we will consider the basic rules that will help you choose an outfit for any celebration.
Peculiarities
The party, which organizers do not impose any strict restrictions on the dress code, will be an ideal option for men and women. In this case, the outfit can be absolutely anything – luxurious and expensive, concise, sexy or creative. Even if it turns out to be too defiant, the specifics of the party will smooth out the awkwardness.
When going to a holiday, you need to pay attention not only to the beauty of the outfit, but also to the comfort of the clothes. Any event usually involves active games and dancing, so you should not choose an outfit that restricts movement. For men, everything is simple – a suit or a stylish shirt with trousers will become a universal solution.
Women have a wider choice; stylists single out such ones from win-win sets.
- Dress – this can be a small black model, an outfit with a large slit, neckline or army armhole. Any extraordinary detail can make an image unique.
- Miniskirt – looks spectacular, but only if the top of the outfit is completely closed.
- Blouses made of flowing fabrics – a satin or silk shirt with unusual prints will ennoble even the simplest pencil skirt or modest jeans.
- Decorative jacket – it is combined with tight shorts, as well as trousers made of leather, suede or velvet.
Focus on the style of the party and your own preferences – your outfit should reflect your personality, emphasize the merits of appearance and hide flaws.
The main elements of the outfit
The choice of outfit for the fair sex is largely determined by the peculiarities of the party they are going to. So, the image for a corporate party needs to be thought out as responsibly as possible. In an informal setting, colleagues try to learn more about their colleagues closer, discover new sides and form a final opinion about the woman’s personality. The slightest mistake in the image will secure her a bad reputation, which can complicate the interaction in the work team.
A universal option would be a dress that repeats the shape of the body, with a painting or a pattern of sequins. Paired with stiletto pumps and a clutch to match the dress, you are sure to amaze your colleagues with your impeccable sense of style.
However, the outfit can be more informal. Corporate events allow loose clothing. In this case, you can form an ensemble of the following things:
- tight skinny;
- loose-fitting jeans;
- classic jeans.
A spectacular tandem with them will be blouses, tops and tunics in casual style. But show restraint. Still, you should not wear ultra-mini, a dress with a huge neckline or ripped jeans for a corporate party. They are more appropriate for walks, picnics, and club meetings. Or, a womens kaftan dress is also a comfy yet classy option for informal clothing. Not only are Kaftan dresses perfect for summer, but they also make you feel confident in your own skin. Jeans can be replaced with classic trousers, in which case the outfit will look more feminine.
But going to a club party, you can choose frank, bright and bold clothes. In a relaxed atmosphere, cocktail dresses in combination with Demonia Cult shoes will be appropriate. A girl in mini or tight-fitting leather pants with a top decorated with sequins will look no less harmonious.
Accessories will help complete a stylish look at any event. A small clutch bag, well-chosen jewelry will make the image unique. But massive bags, bags and backpacks should be left for other occasions.
Color palette
Thanks to the existing variety of colors, everyone can look appropriate in any situation. The most important thing is to take into account the general orientation of the outfit. For example, a chiffon jumpsuit would be flawless in mint or turquoise. Cocktail dresses come in black, blue, pink, light blue or beige.
There are no restrictions for a party, especially a club one. You can safely experiment with sequins, rhinestones, sparkles, leather appliqués, neon and animal prints. The most important thing is to harmoniously combine shades, otherwise you will resemble a parrot, and not a girl with a twist. It is better for a man to go to a holiday in laconic colors; traditionally bright outfits are preferred by young men representing non-traditional subcultures.
How to create a perfect outfit for a party?
To choose the right outfit for a party, you should follow a few simple recommendations. Read in advance the organizer’s requirements for the appearance of the invitees – the style of clothing, color palette and paraphernalia. The outfit should be in harmony with the overall theme of the party. If these wishes do not suit you, then it makes sense to completely refuse to attend the event. Agree, it is unlikely that you will be comfortable in a restrained suit at a costume party a la Moulin Rouge or American retro.
Accessories are an addition to the look. If you use too many different decorations, then you run the risk of looking cheap and being considered a person with bad taste. You should not unnecessarily overload the image, especially if it already has decorative details.
Well-groomed people make a favorable impression. Hair, makeup and manicure – everything must be absolutely perfect. At the same time, it is not necessary to run to an expensive salon, you can curl your hair yourself, the main thing is that the hair is clean. The “war paint” also looks ridiculous – at any party, a light make-up will be quite enough.
