Head Out In Style With The Trendiest Special Event Dresses
There’s no doubt that when you have an important event on your calendar, you need some special event dresses. The worst thing you could possibly do is wait until the very last second to pull out that same dress from last year. With so many new trends and pieces to experiment this year, there’s no excuse not to try something new. From a new color, print, or silhouette you’ve yet to try, there are a ton of designer pieces waiting to meet your closet. Better yet, it’s totally acceptable to wear these more than once. While many are indeed trendy, some give off the perfect versatility you long for in your special event dresses. All it takes it to give it a shot and look your best the next time you plan to head out!

Classics You Can't Attend Anything Without
If you’re worried about stocking up on special event dresses you won’t be able to wear again, stick to the basics. Classic pieces will never go out of style and you certainly can’t go wrong with having more neutral dresses in your closet. No matter where you’re headed or have planned, you can always count on these to deliver you comfort and style. Our two favorites for this are the RACHEL COMEY Vanni Silk Empire Midi Dress and the RETROFETE Dionne Sequined Mini Tube Dress. Although there are many colors to adore this summer, you don’t always want to wear neon hues. Luckily, these two foundational pieces are incredibly easy to style and morph into your own personal taste. Dress them up or down—the choice is yours. The best special event dresses are ones you can wear fro events to come, while also prioritizing your style along the way!

One Special Event Dress That's Out Of This World
Some special event dresses are just out of this world and look unbelievably unreal. But before you decide to skip over that overly trendy, statement piece—think again. No matter what event you’re headed to, this summer is all about taking risks with your wardrobe. There are simply too many pieces to not yet have tried every color on the wheel or every print you can think of. Just take the RODARTE Floral Lace Turtleneck Ruffle-Trim Maxi Dress as the perfect bold, eye-catching example. Most would likely scroll past on, but we don’t think you should. With simply accessories to style it, you can head out the door in the matter of minutes. More importantly, it’s one of the only special event dresses to make the biggest statement worth wearing at least once!
