What is a Cocktail Dress?

Every one female or male has attended different cocktail parties. You can dance and relax yourself at the party. But do you know what a cocktail dress is?

Cocktail Party Dresses

Cocktail party is usually held at night. Cocktail dresses are women’s dresses that they wear at cocktail parties, semi-formal or black tie occasions. When it comes to the black tie occasions, i think it is necessary to explain its meaning for you. Black tie is a dress code for evening events not daytime occasions. It is less formal than white tie but more formal than informal or business dress. After we get know the meaning of black tie occasions, we will talk about what cocktail dresses are now.

We are always thinking that cocktail dresses are short not long. But actually long cocktail dresses exist in the market. A cocktail dress is long, often touching the ankle. When the length of the dress is above the ankle it is called tea-length. And when it is almost touching the ankle it is called knee length. At semi-formal occasions, a less elaborate, shorter-length cocktail dress may be worn. That’s short cocktail dresses. Short cocktail dresses are the most popular choices among the ladies in our times. Cocktail dresses usually elegant and fashionable ladies can show off their beauty and individuality at the parties.
