For the Ladies
The Gown
Opt for a floor-length evening gown. Think luxurious fabrics like silk, satin, or velvet. Consider classic cuts with modern twists, ensuring your gown is both timeless and on-trend. Or go for a voluminous gown, with extravagant sleeves go make a statement on the red carpet.

The Accessories
Complement your gown with elegant accessories. A pair of long gloves, an opera coat, or a chic clutch can elevate your look. Diamonds or pearls are perfect choices for jewellery, adding a touch of classic refinement. You can also choose unconventional but stylish jewellery from brands like Adele Dejak and Ditsala Designs.

The Jacket:
While a black tailcoat would be ideal, what is key is that your jacket is impeccably tailored to fit you perfectly, embodying the height of sophistication. Make sure the fabric base is of a high quality.

Pair your jacket with trousers that ideally feature a satin seam down the leg for that added touch of luxury.
The Shirt and Bow Tie
A crisp white dress shirt with a wing collar is essential, complemented by a white bow tie. A waistcoat in white or black adds an extra layer of elegance.
