Printed Silk Designer Dresses Are The Prettiest Evening Option

You may think printed silhouettes are a daytime-only look, but these gorgeous designer silk dresses are here to prove otherwise. For example, the Hamina stretch-silk floral charmeuse dress by Veronica Beard. Firstly, this stunning black and white dress demands attention with an all-over floral print, a sleek V-neckline, and a sweeping floor-length skirt. Secondly, the lace-trim neckline and open back ensure you feel beautiful and elegant at every turn. So, slip into this dress with a classic pair of heeled black sandals and feel effortlessly chic as you make your entrance.

Meanwhile, the Neola floral print silk maxi dress by Reformation is fully embracing the season’s most sought-after colorways. This dreamy, deep green silk dress will be an instant favorite from the moment it’s in your closet. We adore the emerald hue and subtle white floral print. We’re also smitten with the wide shoulder straps and curve-skimming silhouette. Pair this dress with simple heeled sandals for countless festive parties, drinks, and dinner dates for the season ahead.

Classic Silk Designer Dresses Are An Evening Wardrobe Staple

If you’re looking for silk designer dresses you’ll love to wear now and for many years to come, you’re in the right place. Firstly, we can’t get enough of the silk crepe long dress by Brandon Maxwell. This classic black midi boasts the most beautiful high neckline, a sleeveless bodice, and a stunning flounced hemline. It also has a subtle silver zip trim which elegantly highlights the waist detailing and sultry thigh-high split in the skirt. This dress is exquisite and will look flawless whenever you slip it on with your favorite heels.

Finally, when only a colorful silhouette will do, the Sabri stretch-silk charmeuse dress by Veronica Beard is the one. The ideal shade of ruby red for the festive party season ahead, this dress is a must-have. Style it with black heels or a pair in a coordinating shade to guarantee best-dressed status at every event!
