The Best Fit And Flare Dresses For Your Next Cocktail Party

As much as I love a trendy mini for a Friday night in Dallas, I prefer to choose a more conservative look for a formal cocktail party. Whether I’m dressing for a rehearsal dinner, cocktail party, or holiday dinner with my family, a classic fit and flare dress is always my go-to. A fit and flare dress is appropriate for any age or style, and is flattering on most body shapes.

Whether you choose a shorter hemline for a flirty look, or a midi-length for sophisticated glam, you really can’t go wrong with a fit and flare for a formal occasion. Best of all, the classic shape will always remain in style, so you can wear the dress for years to come!

This new Southern Tide dress is one of our new favorites. I wore it for a cocktail party in North Carolina, Janie wore it for Christmas Eve dinner with the family at The Homestead, and Blair has already called dibs on the next occasion – it’s rare to find a dress we all can’t resist, so safe to say this is a keeper. This particular style is the only fit and flare dress within the Southern Tide collection, but we’re keeping our fingers they’ll continue the style in new patterns next season! (Hint: This dress is currently on sale!)
