Chic Fitted Cocktail Dresses To Elevate Your Evening Closet
Understandably, our need for fitted cocktail dresses has been non-existent over the past year. However, now that we can once again make evening plans, we’re more than ready to elevate our after-dark lineup! From sleek black midi silhouettes to shorter more brightly colored ones, we have all you need to make a statement. Take your pick from stunning designs by Alexander McQueen, Bronx and Banco, Givenchy, Rotate Birger Christensen, and more! All you need now is the perfect pair of designer heels for the most coveted cocktail dress look out there.
Must-Have Black Fitted Cocktail Dresses
When it comes to style staples, black fitted cocktail dresses are a must! Happily, the world’s best designers are well aware of our love for them and have plenty for us to choose form. The multi-wear halter dress by 525 is one of our absolute favorites! We adore its sultry fitted bodice and midi skirt with a split. Not to mention that stunning halter neckline with a keyhole cut-out. Style this one with simple heeled black sandals to make the most of its elegant and versatile appeal.
Additionally, we love shorter cocktail dresses just as we love midi ones. For example, the Everlie fit & flare dress by Shoshanna, for example, is high on our must-have list! This dress stuns with its chic high neckline and decorative lace overlay. Meanwhile, it also boasts voluminous flutter sleeves that look incredible with the sheer upper section of the close-fit bodice. Finally, the flared skirt hits right above the knee for an elegant yet also playful finish to your silhouette. Waer this dress with black heels and a red lip to accentuate its all black design.

Turn Heads In Colorful Fitted Cocktail Dresses
These colorful and printed fitted cocktail dresses are guaranteed to cause a stir the moment you arrive at your next soiree. Firstly, the floral crepe column dress by Aidan Mattox demands attention with its slinky fitted silhouette and multi-colored floral print. Meanwhile, we can’t help but fall head over heels for those stunning wide straps and open back detailing. This is the perfect dress for a summer’s evening and will look incredible with a pair of colorful heels!
If monochromatic dresses are more to your taste, look to the draped satin midi dress by Rasario. Its bewitching, button embellished design in a deep red satin is truly showstopping. Not to mention, its wrap-style bodice and high neckline exude luxury and elegance so effortlessly.
