Every girl wants to look stunning no matter what, and when it comes to special occasions, this desire increases significantly. Evening dresses have always been and will be faithful assistants to young ladies in this matter, because not a single festive evening is complete without them.
These dresses are different and each new style amazes with its pomposity and charm. But if the outfit is truly beautiful, it is incredibly difficult to describe in words, because when combined with feminine attractiveness and elegance, it becomes simply magnificent. What models of evening dresses are considered the most beautiful in this fashion season?
Peculiarities
The most trendy now are evening dresses with multi-layered hems and godet-type outfits with a fishtail skirt. The top of dresses in fashionable styles is, in most cases, tight-fitting, but the lower part almost always flows freely downwards. Fashionable models are decorated with drapery elements and pleats, as well as beads, rhinestones, feathers, embroidery and sparkling sequins.
Outfits for sophisticated young ladies are often complemented with trains of various types, and curvaceous ladies can easily show off in dresses made of weightless chiffon material. There are even outfits specifically designed for pregnant women, which feature a high waist and flared skirt that skillfully hides the belly. Thus, absolutely any young lady can safely step onto the fashion Olympus and amaze the world around her with her extraordinary beauty.
Popular models
But there are also models that, among the abundance of fashion, girls prefer to choose much more often than others. These include long dresses with a deep slit in the skirt, dresses with an asymmetrical hem and dresses made of gold and silver fabrics. Evening dresses with color contrasts, ideal for extraordinary personalities, are also at the peak of popularity. Butterfly dresses, the skirt of which closely resembles the shape of these beautiful insects, are chosen by girls who are not afraid to shock others and be the center of attention. But the top five constant leaders this season are occupied by the following types of evening wear.
With a beautiful back
Such dress models always fascinate, especially the stronger sex. This season, designers have tried hard and made dresses with slits on the back as varied as possible. An evening outfit can open your back only up to the shoulder blades, which in combination with a corset looks elegant and gentle. The neckline can be round and open only the upper back, or oval-shaped and reach the middle.
The notch can open the entire back or be drop-shaped, reaching the waist or tailbone, but dresses with curly and cross-shaped necklines look most unusual. When the open area is hidden behind a lace translucent trim, the image becomes not only frank, but also mysterious.
Curvy
Models with full skirts are absolutely in vogue this season. This very pomp is achieved due to the multi-layering of fabrics superimposed on each other. Such skirts can be either long or short, but the most important thing about them is the decor. Such skirts look quite interesting if they are complemented with fringe elements. The trend this season is pleated fluffy skirts on floor-length dresses.
Elegant
Such models do not have the slightest hint of frankness and shockingness. Restraint with a touch of elegance is what truly stylish ladies choose. Tight-fitting floor-length dresses or outfits with flared skirts made of dense opaque fabrics, without slits or open recesses, will help make the image mysterious and at the same time seductive.
For women 40 years old
At the age of 40, a woman should forget about a provocative mini, even if the beauty of her legs allows her to wear it, and give preference to longer models of evening dresses. This season, respectable young ladies can safely choose floor-length or midi-length dresses with small slits on the back. If your figure is not quite ideal, you can opt for a dress model that flares out from the bottom of the bodice.
Dresses with a peplum and a year are always in trend and will emphasize the elegance of a young lady at any age. It is better to choose a more restrained color scheme - beige, white, black, blue and light pink, but red, brown, blue, green and purple are also acceptable.
Lace
A model that is now at the peak of popularity and is most often chosen by young people. The dress can be translucent and create an incredibly feminine and romantic look. Dresses with a lining underneath look more elegant than romantic and can be chosen even by older ladies. Dresses with lace trim on the hem or sleeves perfectly complement any evening look. The length of such dresses is often short.
Current colors
Red is recognized as the most fashionable color of this season, so designers allow themselves to play as much as possible with its shades. Coral, dark orange, scarlet, raspberry, strawberry, brick - this list goes on and on. Shades of blue and green are also in trend, so you can safely choose dresses in purple, sapphire, malachite and marsh shades. Eternal classics are always relevant and models in white and black can always be found.
Length
This fashion season allows you to experiment as much as possible with the length of evening dresses, because there are no restrictions. When choosing floor-length dresses, you can choose the Greek style, because this is the kind of outfit that will help emphasize femininity and tenderness as much as possible. Models with an asymmetrical skirt are often lengthened at the back of the dress and shortened at the front. This dress looks quite extraordinary and emphasizes the originality of the girl who is wearing it.
Midi length dresses have a place in an evening look if they are complemented with original elements in the form of lace, asymmetry, embroidery or an unusually beautiful print. The shortest evening dresses are designed for young, brave individuals who are proud of their figure and love to be the center of attention.
They often have a full skirt, making the look as light and romantic as possible, but there are also classic tight models and even wrap styles. The most popular models of dresses now are those with multi-level skirts.
Fabrics and textures
Nowadays, they prefer to make evening dresses from high-quality and expensive fabrics - satin, velvet, silk, taffeta, light chiffon, cotton, lace, organza and even knitwear. Dresses made of translucent fabrics, creating the effect of a naked body, are coming back into fashion. Dresses in which translucent areas are combined with dense and non-luminous ones look interesting. Outfits with unusual and deep necklines hidden behind a light mesh create a very seductive look. Well, the most successful prints this season are considered to be floral, geometric, abstract and animal.
What to wear with
The dress is an integral part of the evening look, but far from the only one. To create a truly harmonious and stylish image for a celebration, you need to think through every little detail and take into account even the most insignificant nuances. What to wear with an evening dress this season?
Accessories
It is better to choose a small but elegant bag. An envelope-shaped clutch is ideal for a classic mid-length flared dress. A floor-length dress, decorated with an abundance of rhinestones and beads, can be complemented with a clutch, which is decorated with rivets and spikes. Jewelry should only be precious, so brooches, bracelets, rings and earrings with diamonds are the best choice. You can decorate your hair with a tiara, but remember that there should be moderation in everything and excesses in rhinestones and sparkles should not be allowed.
Shoes
Only evening shoes, high heels or stilettos, are allowed. It’s good if it matches the tone of the dress and matches its texture. It is important that the heel is not too thick, otherwise a light evening look, regardless of the type of dress, will be hopelessly weighted.
Platform shoes are also allowed if they are bulky enough. The best choice is shoes decorated with rhinestones, but the timeless classic in the form of laconic pumps is always relevant. Sandals with thick buckles and rhinestones will go well with short models of lace dresses.
Beautiful capes for evening dresses
Capes for evening dresses are designed not only to warm a girl, but also to emphasize her charm. Sometimes, they very skillfully allow you to hide excessive fullness or thinness of the hands. This season, a variety of types of capes are considered fashionable:
- Bolero– is a shortened cape model with sleeves that can be either long or short. Nowadays, lace and fur boleros, as well as models with swan down, have become very popular. It is better to choose such a cape from a material different from that from which the dress is made.
- Knitted capes may be of different shapes, but always look original. This cape will make your look elegant if it is knitted in the form of a scarf or shawl. A knitted bolero will help make your look gentle and romantic.

To understand what surprises 2018 has in store, you don’t have to have the ability to see through time. However, a way for fashionistas to look into the future can be to get acquainted with current trends that will not lose relevance throughout the entire 12 months of the new season. So, it’s definitely worth investing money in the following styles of dresses:
- Models with a high waistline
As fashion trends suggest, in 2018, a high-waisted dress will become the basis of looks. Besides the fact that they look feminine and beautiful, dresses work wonders on a woman’s figure.
They visually make your legs slimmer and more graceful, and your waist thinner and more expressive. The style looks equally good with comfortable low-top shoes and stiletto heels.
Therefore, to create a successful bow, a girl will not have to spend a lot of extra money. She will easily complement the purchased dress with a pair of shoes available on the shelf in the closet. These could be loafers, sneakers, slip-ons, shoes, ballet flats or espadrilles.
- Emphasis on the shoulder line
This trend is still hot. She just left the world's catwalks and began to spread around the world, influencing the formation of the taste of fashionable girls and women.
The peculiarity of the trend lies in the emphasized shoulder line. Designers achieve this in different ways. They use shoulder pads in dresses and place accents on the shoulder line in the form of flounces, ruffles or voluminous puffed sleeves.
Such design techniques look fresh and unusual. The dress acquires an original texture, a recognizable and memorable look.
- Boat neckline: a classic with a modern twist
Fashionable dresses of 2018 may have one detail that is well known to stylish girls. This is a deep boat neckline that gains relevance from time to time.

Large volume, soft texture and interesting cut are the main details of this garment. Ideally, the dress should be made from high-quality, high-density plain knitwear that holds its shape well and does not require special care. The oversized style is combined with accessories and shoes for everyday wear.
An additional advantage of this bold style is its ability to effectively “mask” figure flaws. Under the loose silhouette of the dress, a problematic tummy or massive hips will go unnoticed.
- Models with full, voluminous skirts
If you believe the statements of fashion experts, this year a full skirt can be worn not only by an evening dress, but also by a casual dress intended for visiting the office, educational institution or cafe.

Otherwise, the fashionista will look like a girl from American posters in the “pin-up” style.
