To wear an evening dress, there must be a reason. That is why beauties all over the world do not miss the opportunity to dress up in such an outfit for any suitable holiday.

In the new season, original combinations of evening dresses with frills will get a second wind, regardless of whether it is a dress or a pair of trousers.
In 2021, fashion designers propose to move a little away from the aggressive vamp style and emphasize the tenderness of the image with flowing translucent skirts and voluminous cuffs. Unusually shaped necklines will also remain trendy.
Contrasting combinations will be fashionable. Flowing fabrics gathered into multi-layered skirts are combined with massive accessories and shoes. You can also complement the look with large mesh tights.
One of the trends of the season will be the continued development of lingerie-style collections. You can surprise the audience with an evening dress in the form of an oversized jacket.
Velvet boleros or heavy fur capes are in fashion. You can also complement the look with a business-style sleeveless vest.
Sequins will not lose their relevance. A dress fully embroidered with them should have the simplest style and a minimum of additional decor.

Lace is always in trend

A tight bodysuit, covered on top with a transparent lace cover of the same color, looks original and interesting. For modest women, a loose-fitting dress is suitable. At the same time, more relaxed individuals can demonstrate all the advantages of their figure with the help of a tight-fitting lace outfit.

This season, fabric with a pleated effect has been successfully reincarnated. Moreover, this material was used both as a single piece to create the skirt of a dress, and in the form of many frills. An interesting design solution was a skirt made of several rows of pleated fabric in different contrasting colors.
Knitwear and wool at special events
In contrast to the light fabrics will be collections of evening dresses made of thick wool and knitwear. Such a heavy dress should have maximum length and a trapezoidal shape.
A deep slit on the thigh will help add romanticism and charm to your outfit. If open arms are inappropriate, then you should choose a wide sleeve. This dress goes well with all kinds of lacing.

Color trends
Fashion setters for evening dresses are not inclined to limit the color palette. There are only a few items among the recommendations.
If the evening set consists of a tight-fitting top and a fluffy skirt, then it is better to choose elements of different colors. Shades should be contrasting. It would be ideal if the texture of the fabrics is different.
Pastel colors are always on trend:
- peach;
- powdery;

If a velvet cape or jacket was chosen to accompany the dress, then their color should be bright: lemon, red, blue. You can also use an animal print cape in unusual colors.

Nude shades for an elegant look
One of the fashion hits of 2021 will be evening dresses in nude shades. A tight dress that matches your skin color will attract attention and look seductive. If you choose the right shade of nude, you can highlight the color of your hair, eyes and skin.
Almost every style of evening dress will look spectacular in shades of beige. For example, a fluffy skirt made of numerous petals will be an elegant addition to the princess’s look. Multi-layered flesh-colored chiffon will also help achieve the desired effect.
Satin waves of nude shades can give their owner a divine glow. Loose-cut coffee tunics made of satin look great. A sheath dress requires its owner to choose a darker shade of beige. This approach will provide a noble look along with it.
Sheath dress - a timeless classic
Most often, women choose a beautiful sheath dress for a meeting in a restaurant, because they consider this look classic. The length of this dress is usually slightly above or below the knees; it emphasizes the figure so that all its advantages come to the fore, and flaws are skillfully hidden. This dress is usually paired with a beautiful belt or belt that emphasizes the waist.
A sheath dress is well suited for a woman who knows all the advantages of her figure and knows how to highlight them. It should not be too frank, but it should not look like an office one either. A simple dress can always be decorated with a beautiful hairstyle, shoes and jewelry, but making an evening outfit out of a flashy thing is quite difficult. Therefore, carefully select a sheath dress for an evening in a restaurant.
Open shoulders: hitting the target
Most of the images of princesses at the ball are associated with bare shoulders. Nothing looks as touching and defenseless as bare arms and shoulders. A girl in such an outfit will undoubtedly attract the attention of the prince, who will immediately want to protect and warm her. At the same time, this style is not distinguished by provocative sexuality.
An off-the-shoulder dress will be perfect for any occasion. Any style can be made more delicate with the help of such a detail. The girl immediately becomes graceful and fragile in the eyes of others.
For modest women, models that hide only part of the shoulder with lace or transparent fabric are suitable. An alternative would be dresses with thin straps.
In 2021, stylists did not offer fashionistas anything fundamentally new. All classic models are still in trend. One thing remains important: the combination of shades and cut with the personal characteristics of the fair sex.
How to choose clothes for the evening
An elegant dress for the New Year, March 8 is necessary when the holidays are held in a large circle of friends, relatives, and maybe colleagues.
The outfit must correspond to the format of the event. Let’s say the festive evening takes place in a luxurious mansion or palace, you can’t even think about an office wardrobe! It should be a super elegant ensemble, preferably long, decorated with the same brilliant accessories.
For a club party, you can choose an outfit that is not so formal, more youthful, but it must also be sophisticated and moderate in style.
At a corporate event or social event, every lady dreams of showing off her superiority, so it is important to adhere to the original style.
You can get a model in shades that are fashionable in 2021 - yellow, carrot, red, but you should always be guided by your own preferences and take into account the individual characteristics of your body type and age.
Perhaps such rich flowers will be enough in very small quantities.
