10 Evening Dressing Tips

How to dress your evening dress perfectly? Fashion designer Nainika Karan of designer duo Gauri and Nainika shares tips on the perfect style for evening dressing. Let’s draw some inspiration from the tips:





1. An essential rule of style is to not match everything in the look. Do not be too matched head-to-toe. Your bags and shoes need not match your evening dress. If you’re wearing a plain black dress, try pairing it with velvet red, silver or golden footwear. If not, allow your clutch to make the statement.





2. Keep the accessorising to a minimum. There should be only one item that makes the statement, like a neck piece or a bracelet or a ring, but not all three together. Do not overpower the key element with other accessories.





3. While wearing denims and jeans, choose the right type for your body. Don’t wear high-waist pants only because they are trendy. Buy pants that flatter your figure, especially for evening wear.


4. I think wearing bras with plastic straps look a little tacky. There are a number of sensible, good innerwear options available for you to choose from and invest in.


5. All wardrobes must contain the essentials: a black pencil skirt, a crisp white shirt that looks clean and immaculate and definitely the little black dress.


6. For the winters, go for trench coats and glam high heeled boots. These are one of the best options for covering up while you still look swell.


7. Clothes can be mixed and matched and hairstyles can be changed to achieve a new or different look. However, definitely invest in a good bag and a great pair of shoes. They last long and compliment everything you wear, on a daily basis. This adds spunk to even the plainest wardrobe.


8. Tone down the make-up for the evening. Too much make-up looks over the top and can spoil your entire look.


9. Pants that are four inches above the ground look awful. Such middle-short lengths look good to a certain extent on skinny jeans, but are not at all advisable.


10. Wear your size. This essentially means better comfort and more confidence. If your curves are obvious, stay away from tight fitting clothes. Wear clothes that compliment your figure rather than accentuate your flaws.

Here Comes 'Four Weddings'

Undoubtedly, we love watching wedding shows, whether it shows a couple falling in love ('A Wedding Story'), nightmare brides from hell ('Bridezillas'), how a bride chose her wedding gown ('Say Yes to the Dress'), or how an overweight bride chose her wedding gown ('Bulging Brides'). Here comes 'Four Weddings' - the Canadian wedding show. Let’s take a sneak peek!



'Four Weddings' is, at times, exactly like these sister shows, and at other times in a world of its own. We'll probably be seeing other variations on this when it comes to Canada in early 2012. Yep, you read that right!

The first Canadian edition of the international hit series will premiere on January 4, 2012 on Slice. It follows four very different brides-to-be as they attend each other's very different weddings. What's at stake? The ultimate honeymoon.

In each episode, the four Canadian brides will rate each other's nuptials in -- you guessed it -- four categories: venue, food, overall experience and, most importantly, the dress. The bride with the highest total score wins a luxurious getaway for her and her new hubby.

"The 'Four Weddings' franchise has already had a tremendous response among international audiences," said Barbara Williams, Senior Vice President of Content, Shaw Media, in a press release. "And now, for the first time ever, we're offering our viewers the opportunity to take in the styles and tastes of fellow Canadian brides tying the knot on home soil."

The format, similar to 'Come Dine With Me,' is based on the UK series, and just like the dinner-party show, things can get feisty, considering what's being judged is a manifestation of one's bridal ego. Oh, how romantic. Now let the weddings begin.

Walking down the aisle towards your loved one is a hugely significant part of your big day. To ensure that this important moment is everything you want it to be, you have to consider your wedding apparel carefully. Whether vintage wedding dresses, beach wedding apparel or other special wedding dresses, MLtailor is an ideal place for you to choose them from.

Pink Team or Red Team?

Undoubtedly, red is a hot trend. However, it's a bold color. Why not choose pink? We all know pink is a softer and sweet choice, compared with red. Some celebs opted for pink evening dresses at the red carpet. Let’s check them out.





Katy Perry continued her love affair with the color pink at the “Grammy Nominations Concert Live!” show. The host opted for a Dolce & Gabbana lace pink strapless gown which hugged her gorgeous figure. She also opted for fuchsia pink lips which were several shades lighter than her pink hair.





Amanda Seyfried showed her support for the March Of Dimes’ 6th Annual Celebration Of Babies Luncheon, wearing a pink Calvin Klein short-sleeve mini dress. Her beautiful, simple look is teamed with nude Yves Saint Laurent ‘Tribtoo’ pumps. Barely-there makeup and loose, natural waves completed the minimalistic look. Love it.

Why not pick out some prom dresses and little black dresses that you can always have in your wardrobe for a special occasion “back up” outfit? Chic and elegant special occasion dresses are really a must-have for a huge amount of women.

Wow! "X Factor" Favorite Natalie Bassingthwaighte's Romantic Wedding Ceremony

Last Sunday, 'X FACTOR' favorite Natalie Bassingthwaighte tied the knot with her long-time partner, musician Cameron McGlinchey, in a romantic ceremony overlooking the St Kilda foreshore. Come and have a look!

The bride arrived at the Stokehouse, where the wedding party had booked out the upstairs restaurant, in a white vintage Rolls-Royce.

She looked gorgeous in a white wedding gown by Melbourne designer J'Aton and was accompanied by her 16-month-old daughter Harper, who was dressed in blue.

As she entered the building, Bassingthwaighte said she was eager to see the groom.

The couple chose not to have bridesmaids or groomsmen, keeping the ceremony intimate.

J'Aton's Anthony Pittorino said the wedding gown had taken two weeks to create "with four people working on it and us going to bed at 5am".

"It has been a labor of love. There is a lot of embroidery. It is a very romantic gown, but still modern and quite sexy at the same time," he said.

"There is lots of see-through in it, and you can still see her legs if you look closely, but it is totally feminine and elegant."

About 100 guests attended the wedding, including actor Alan Fletcher and his wife, Jennifer Hansen.

Other guests included Neighbors star Stefan Dennis and his wife Gail, comedian Russell Gilbert, Rogue Traders frontman James Ash and his wife Melinda, and former footballer Nathan Brown and his wife Kristine.

Bassingthwaighte and McGlinchey have been dating since 2006, meeting when part of the hit-making band, Rogue Traders.

The musician proposed in July last year.

Their daughter was born the following month.

The couple opted not to sell their wedding day to a magazine, but were happy to share their big day with fans who had waited outside the Stokehouse to wish them well.

Walking down the aisle towards your loved one is a hugely significant part of your big day. To ensure that this important moment is everything you want it to be, you have to consider your wedding apparel carefully. Whether vintage wedding dresses, beach wedding apparel or other special wedding dresses, MLtailor is an ideal place for you to choose them from.

What Makes an Unforgettable Dress - A Spectacular Event for Fashion

A spectacular event for fashion – the celebration of Hal Rubenstein’s new book, 100 Unforgettable Dresses, has been held recently. The soirée was hosted by Vanessa Getty and the Giorgio Armani store, where guests convened to toast the author and discuss the 100 Most Unforgettable Dresses. Come and have a look at the event!

When asked, “What makes an unforgettable dress?” The author Rubenstein’s reply was threefold: “The right dress, on the right woman, at the right time.”

He gave the example of Jennifer Lopez’s pivotal moment from the 2000 Grammys, when she wore the green Versace evening dress.

It had been worn before by Amber Valetta at the Spring 2000 show and again by Donatella Versace at the Met Ball, without causing a stir. Yet, on the evening of the Grammy’s, J. Lo hit the trifecta – it was the right dress, she was the right woman, and it was the right time. The dress catapulted J. Lo into the spotlight and she never looked back.

Follow the jump to read more!

A dress, he explained, does not have a life of its own. “It comes to life on a woman,” and with the right match, it can make for an unforgettable moment.

Princess Diana’s second appearance in the book illustrates this point perfectly – what Rubenstein calls her “Revenge Dress”.

A newly divorced Diana planned to attend an event at the Serpentine Gallery in London, on the same evening that her ex-husband, Prince Charles, had decided to appear on national television to publicly acknowledge his affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles. Diana had planned on wearing a Valentino, but upon hearing of the Prince’s announcement, changed her mind. She pulled out of her closet a dress she’d had made three years prior, when she was still married to the Prince. The custom-made Christina Stambolian dress was short, fitted, and certainly flattered her figure. She never wore the dress, fearing that it was a bit too much for a woman of her royal standing. However, on that evening it was perfect – she looked absolutely stunning, and it became the second most photographed dress she ever wore (second only to her wedding dress). No one was talking about Prince Charles and Camilla the next morning, they were talking about Diana.

The evening was truly remarkable, as is the book. 100 Unforgettable Dresses chronicles an amazing collection of celebrity dresses, paired with the amazing women wearing them. Vanessa Getty summed things up when she remarked, “It’s the first book I’ve read cover to cover in a long time.” It is stories like these that make fashion memorable and meaningful.

“And always remember,” Rubenstein added, “anyone has the ability to be unforgettable.”

Why not pick out some prom dresses and little black dresses that you can always have in your wardrobe for a special occasion “back up” outfit? Chic and elegant special occasion dressesare really a must-have for a huge amount of women.
