Collection: Evening wear

Any woman who stays updated with the latest fashion trends would have at least a few stylish and elegant evening-wear dresses that steal glances at an occasion or keep your dinner date’s eyes glued to you. After all, as our lord and savior Taylor Swift would have rightly pointed out, every woman wants to feel like, “Best believe I'm still bejeweled/When I walk in the room/I can still make the whole place shimmer.” Whether it is an important date, an office party, or a black-tie event—the right evening wear dresses can make all the difference. 

From halter dresses to ethnic extravaganza, we want it all when it comes to gorgeous evening wear dresses. But where would you find a genie that would grant you all your fashion wishes? Make Believe by Ritika helps you achieve your fashion goals in a “very demure, very mindful” way that would make you say, “Take my money, take my whole bank balance too.” So, what are you waiting for? Let’s jump right into the world of best evening-wear dresses while we learn a thing or two about them. 

Types of Evening Wear Dresses You Can Slip Into To Elevate Your Art Of Dressing

1. Cocktail Dresses: It is a semi-formal garment that typically falls between casual daywear and formal evening attire. The key features are a knee-length hemline (can be shorter even) and a sleek, tailored silhouette that often flatters the figure. However, like actual cocktails or adult juice that can be enjoyed the best from the evening onwards, these dresses are also best worn in the evenings for semi-formal and formal events. 
2. Maxi Dresses: Maxi evening dresses are floor-length dresses typically worn for formal events or as an evening wear dress. These are as versatile as Bridgerton’s Penelope Featherington as a writer and can be worn in gala dinners, red carpet events, or an important date night. 
3. Designer Evening Dresses: Designer evening dresses are like diamonds; every woman should own at least one piece of it. These are often exclusive and one-of-a-kind pieces with elaborate detail, sleek style, or embellishment that instantly make you stand out of the crowd while everyone is crying, “Who is that?”

Party Dresses: Party dresses are mostly for…well…TO PARTY! Depending on whether it is a formal or semi-formal event, the dresses vary. The materials can include silk, satin, and velvet and can be made to accommodate your wildest thoughts or what the occasion demands.  From chic tops and skirts to long evening dresses, the range is quite diverse and extensive.
