How to Pick the Best Evening Gowns (2024)

Not sure about the weather? Spring can be unpredictable, but if it rains or you find yourself in colder weather, you can always pair your dress with a beautiful wrap. We have a lovely range of scarves, wraps, and coats that will match any evening gown you choose.

Fit Your Evening Gown to Your Body Type

Once you decide on the length of the dress, think about the style and cut that will flatter your body shape. For example, an A-line silhouette often looks great on petite figures, while an off-the-shoulder neckline works well for curvier figures. Consider adding shapewear that will help to highlight your figure and curves.

Our Velvet “Edge of the Shoulder” dress has both a softly flared skirt and an off the shoulder neckline - a wonderfully comfortable and flattering dress that suits women of all shapes and sizes.

It’s best to choose a clothing line that provides a range of sizes so you can choose the best fit for your body, such as the Bombshell London range. We also include shapewear for women of all sizes to help you look your best in your gown.

Choose Classic Colours

Colour selection is also an important consideration when choosing evening gowns. You want a colour that looks luxurious but also helps you stand out and look beautiful. For formal events, try classic shades like navy, black, and jewel. Colours such as white, and gold tend to work great for any occasion and are not so bright that they detract too much attention from your beautiful face. If you find yourself stuck between several options, don't hesitate to ask friends or family members which one they think looks best on you—they can help narrow down your selection.

Try Sequins and Velvets

Evening gowns come in many fabrics and elegant designs. Ideally, you want an evening gown that looks luxurious but also feels comfortable, because there’s nothing worse than being uncomfortable in an evening gown. Sequins and velvets are two popular choices that always look elegant but won’t weigh you down at an all-night affair.

Sequin dresses don’t have to be black or champagne! Turn heads in coloured sequin gowns like our luxury evening gown, which is designed to be a comfortable fit for any indoor or outdoor event.

Jumpsuits

If you find yourself wanting something a little different than an evening gown, consider formal jumpsuits. Jumpsuits are sophisticated enough for a formal event and comfortable enough for a casual dinner or night out.
