Mini Dresses

In the past, mini dresses were relegated to the realm of casual parties and nights out at clubs. The most formal occasion, to which you could reasonably wear one, was a cocktail party. Mini dresses are still the perfect choice for a cocktail party, but the trend is quickly gathering speed. There are now an increasing number of formal events, to which you can wear a mini party dress. In recent years, we’ve seen many celebrities sporting such party gowns at highly formal events like awards ceremonies. 

Where to Wear a Mini Gown?

These party gowns are appropriate at semi-formal parties, proms, and homecoming, and are becoming increasingly so at events like gala dinners and ceremonies. A lavishly embellished illusion mini gown is the perfect choice for an official dinner or a date at a fancy restaurant. NewYorkDress has more than a few bejeweled, breathtaking designer mini dresses. These inspiring above-the-knee party gowns with jewel neckline bodices can be just as glamorous as their floor-length counterparts. They are perfect ensembles for a night out, figure-hugging and wrapped in rich lace-patterned burnout fabric.

Turn heads in a sleeveless party mini dress with scallop-edged plunge by La Femme. In-seam pockets grace the hips, while the clean lines accentuate your natural curves. The dress ends in a sheer-layered skirt flowing down to a short, soft hemline.

We mentioned the more casual applications of mini dresses earlier. La Femme has a fun collection of sundresses with thin straps holding the straight neckline. The waist is augmented by a slim, dainty band.

The designer Lara is practically synonymous with “mini gown.” They have exquisite collections of cocktail dresses embellished with glittery beads and sequins. The fitted V-neck bodices and soft, charming cap sleeves exude elegance and class. The dresses play up natural curves, ending mid-thigh. It is the color pattern of this style that makes it truly unique. You can choose between turquoise and silver or navy and silver. The pattern is really amazing – the different-colored lines interweave and interconnect in a dauntingly complex way, with silver borders throughout. 

For those of you with more classical tastes, look no further than Lara’s contrast sparkling cocktail dress. The black-and-white dress features a halter neckline with tonal detail throughout. The fitted skirt ends with a mini hem.
