In recent seasons dresses with feathers, both faux and real, have become part of the zeitgeist once again. Right now, you’d be less likely to impress in a tulle floor-length gown than if you donned the marabou look. Wearing feathers is a guaranteed way to leave your mark.

The Best Occasions to Wear a Feather Evening Gown

A feather evening gown is most appropriate at a creative black tie event. You could put on a cocktail dress or dress up in a long gown, depending on preference. Whichever you choose, accessorizing with this hot embellishment wouldn’t be a mistake. For an extra wow factor, include beads and sheer fabrics.

Feathers are a unique touch that wouldn’t be out of place at a formal event like a ball, gala, prom, reception, wedding, homecoming, or engagement party. You can also wear a shorter dress with feathers to a cocktail party. The classic LBD is perfect cocktail attire, and accessorizing with feathers is the easiest way to let your personality shine.

On this occasion, we’d recommend a chic short formal with feathered skirt by Sherri Hill. The subtly curved neckline is supported by thin spaghetti straps. Tailoring seam lines shape a sleek fit, tracing your natural curves. A dazzling belt circles the waist, drawing attention to the narrowest point of the body. The flared skirt and short hemline is garnered with a feather trim.

If your event is more formal, you’ll need a slightly different style, like a full-length number with feathers and additional embellishments, such as shimmery detail. One of our best designers offering this style is Terani. Their off-the-shoulder, feather trim dresses are flattering to any body type thanks to a fitted bodice and a soft, flowing skirt. Ornate shimmering detail lends dazzle to the bodice, and a thigh-high slit on one side adds a daring touch.

Another style that’s perfect for formal events is a crystal-lit evening two-set piece with V-neck and sleeveless styling that debuts the fitted bodice. A jazzy crop reveals the midriff. The matching skirt flows to a full length with feathered accents. The piece is covered in shimmering crystals, so you’ll shine from head to toe.
