Evening color
The reception may be taking place after sunset, but you can still embrace a gorgeous color palette. Look to the bright, minimalist styles by the likes of Filiarmi, or lean into the romance of Alexandra Pijut and HUISHAN ZHANG’s chiffons and satins in pastels.

Wedding sparkle
For an after-hours wedding, add a touch of sparkle. Our advice? Tap into the party mood without making yourself the star of the show—opt for clever embellishments like crystal straps or a scattering of sparkle across the skirt. Layer a blazer over the top to create a seriously chic look.

Understated elegance
While statement dresses are exciting to wear, they can be challenging to wear on repeat. If you have a number of evening events on the calendar, consider investing in a simple yet beautifully cut dress that you can refresh with accessories. Sophie et Voilà and byVarga’s dresses are beautiful in their own right, but are also a versatile canvas to create a multitude of evening looks by mixing your jewelry, shoes and bags.

Anything but a dress
Dresses not your thing? Not to worry—tailored separates are a fashion-forward alternative, especially in eveningwear. For a wedding, look for tailored pieces that feel extra special, such as SANTA Brands' oversized blazer with sequin embellishments, or HUISHAN ZHANG’s butter yellow suit dotted with crystals.
