Strapless Designer Formal Mini Dresses You'll Want To Be Spotted In

Don’t get us wrong, we adore every one of the designer formal mini dresses on our list. However, we have to say that the strapless styles have truly stolen our hearts! For example, the Osiris mini dress by Free People. Firstly, this stunning lime green dress is wonderfully unique and sure to have all eyes on you the moment you make your entrance. Secondly, the chic strapless neckline, the flattering structured bodice, and the floaty asymmetric mini skirt make for one of the summer’s most romantic silhouettes. So, style this dress with flats during the day. Then, simply elevate the look with a cute pair of heels for your evening plans.

Additionally, we’ve fallen head over heels for the Skye bustier mini by Leo Lin. This stunning little dress will have you swooning over its soft pink hue, strapless neckline, and white floral print. Also, whilst it’s most definitely a formal dress, it still boasts a playful edge with a seriously voluminous tiered skirt! Finally, we recommend styling yours with simple heels for a flawless finish.

Monochrome Designer Formal Mini Dresses We'll Be Reaching For On Repeat

Investing in designer formal mini dresses you’ll wear for years to come is always a good idea. Luckily we’ve been spoiled for choice when it comes to monochrome looks – they’re perfect for all kinds of events! Firstly, the embellished stretch-crepe mini dress by Clio Peppiatt is the little white dress of our dreams. The super chic high neckline, the sculpted silhouette, and the 3D floral embellishments ensure you stun from every angle. We also adore the all-over pearl adornments and sleek keyhole detailing in the back. Pair this eternally elegant dress with coordinating white pumps for the most coveted look of the season.

Alternatively, if it’s the perfect LBD you’re dreaming of, look no further than the strapless peplum dress by Eva Franco. Truly, we love everything about this dress. Firstly, the sweetheart neckline and bodice button detailing are a match made in heaven. As are the peplum waist and scalloped hemline. Pair this dress with simple black heels and sunglasses for vintage screen siren vibes and expect all eyes on your flawless fit!
