FAQs

What does "formal" mean as a dress code?

Formal usually means a more elevated outfit suited to weddings, galas, school formals or evening celebrations. A maxi dress is an easy choice, while a chic midi or refined cocktail style can also work depending on the setting.

Can you wear a short dress to a formal event?

Yes, if the event allows it and the design feels elevated enough. Look for structured shapes, luxe textures, long sleeves, high necklines or statement details to keep the outfit feeling considered.

What fabric is best for a formal dress?

Satin is a favorite for a formal dress because it has a smooth finish and an elevated feel. Mesh, crepe-style textures and embellished fabrics can also work, depending on the dress code and where you're going.

What should I consider when buying a formal dress?

Start with the dress code, venue and season, then think about how you want to style your heels, jewelry and bag. It also helps to check the length, neckline and color so your outfit feels right for the occasion.

How should a formal dress fit?

Check the product measurements, length notes and size guide before choosing your formal dress. If you want a more personalized suggestion, use our Fit Finder feature online! You can find this on every product page.

What neckline styles are appropriate for formal dresses?

Strapless, halter, square neck, cowl neck, high neck and one-shoulder designs can all suit formal dresses. Choose a neckline that works with your jewelry, hairstyle and the overall feel of the event.

What is the difference between formal and semi-formal dresses?

Formal dresses are usually more elevated in length, fabric or detail. Semi-formal dresses can be shorter, simpler or styled with more relaxed accessories.
