A corporate event is a great opportunity to show off a new side of yourself, highlight your individuality, and create an elegant look that will be remembered for a long time. But how do you choose a dress to look appropriate, stylish, and confident? In this article, we've compiled the top tips to help you make the perfect choice.
Consider the venue and time
The venue and time are just as important as the dress code.
- Office party on a Friday afternoon? A business dress complemented by bright accessories will do the trick - you'll stay within the bounds of decorum but add a touch of celebration.
- New Year's Eve banquet at a hotel? Choose an elegant dress with touches of sparkle, velvet, or deep shades (burgundy, emerald, navy blue, gold).
- Summer corporate party on the terrace? Lightweight fabrics, pastel colors, and floral prints are all appropriate, as long as they're not too revealing.

Choose a style according to your body type
The perfect dress is one that makes you feel confident. Consider your body shape:
- Apple-shaped dresses emphasize the décolleté, revealing the shoulders and a loose fit at the bottom.
- Pear-shaped dresses emphasize the waist, choosing styles with a full skirt or an A-line silhouette.
- Hourglass-shaped dresses are flattering, especially fitted dresses.
- Rectangle-shaped dresses create volume in the bust and hips with ruffles, belts, and shoulder details.
The key is to not sacrifice comfort for the sake of trendiness. If you can't sit, dance, or breathe freely, even the most beautiful dress will be irritating.

Color and print: less is sometimes more
Classic shades - black, burgundy, navy blue, emerald, and beige - always look luxurious and appropriate. Bright colors and prints are acceptable, but be mindful of the atmosphere of the event. For example, a floral print is perfect for a spring or summer corporate event, but might look frivolous at a winter banquet at a luxury restaurant.
When in doubt, choose a solid-color dress and add bright accents with shoes, a handbag, or jewelry.
