Wear your Evening Gown

Evening gowns call for luxurious, tasteful accessories. Anything worn with an evening gown should complement it and not detract from the dress. If your dress is simple, you can choose bolder accessories. If your dress is flashy, choose accessories that are more subdued. Ralph Lauren Designer have different creation of evening gowns. Even the Celebrities from Hollywood enjoy this gorgeous gowns. Whatever jewelry you decide to wear, make sure that it is real. It is better to wear smaller, authentic jewelry, than larger costume pieces. Costume jewelry will detract from the dress and, ultimately, from you. People will be able to tell, even if they do not say anything about it.

When choosing jewelry, it is a good rule of thumb to limit yourself to only one large piece, with any other items much smaller. You don't have to wear all the jewelry you own. Consider the cut of the dress to decide what jewelry to wear. If you have a beautiful, open neckline, consider letting a necklace take center stage. If you are going sleeveless, a more embellished bracelet may be the right choice.


With an evening gown, there is a limited choice if you want to wear flats. If at all possible, wear heels. Avoid clunky heels and most wedges. They don't match the sophistication of the evening dress. If you are wearing a dark dress, it is hard to go wrong with black heels. If you do not normally wear heels, practice in them first. If you wobble or look uncomfortable walking in the heels, it will detract from the entire look of the outfit.



If your dress has little fabric and is sleeveless or strapless, a stole or wrap can definitely add to the elegance of the gown. A silk or velvet wrap that matches or contrasts can complement the dress considerably. In the winter, furs and fake furs can add to the outfit. Stoles and wraps can be draped over the shoulders or through the elbows. Avoid a stole or wrap that is very long. Wider and shorter is better. When wearing a wrap or stole, be mindful throughout the event of where the stole is placed. An uneven wrap, or one trailing on the ground, is unsightly.
