You’ve been invited to a Great Gatsby-themed party and you’re totally pumped. Only problem is, you have no idea what to wear. What does a Gatsby themed outfit look like, anyway? Well, don’t sweat it! This article has you covered with five fabulous flapper-inspired outfits that are sure to make you the cat’s pajamas at any roaring ‘20s shindig!

Find Your Gatsby Theme Outfit: 5 Dazzling Options

We asked our style experts to handpick their favorite Great Gatsby theme outfits. Below, find five expert-recommended styles that capture the sparkle and luxury of the Roaring Twenties. Expect gold, silver, sequins, beads, feathers, and more!

1. Red and gold mermaid dress with rhinestones

A red dress dripping in gold rhinestones? Yes, this looks like a Gatsby themed outfit to us! Both gold and red are very popular colors for ‘20s-inspired outfits because they’re eye-catching and glamorous.

Most Gatsby theme dresses will feature sparkly embellishments, such as beads, sequins, glitter, jewels, or rhinestones.

And as you can see in this dress, the rhinestone patterns also accentuate an hourglass shape. Who can say no to that?!

Styling tip: When it comes to your Gatsby themed outfit, there’s no such thing as too much gold! Complete this look with a gold-embellished clutch and shoulder-grazing earrings.

2. Black and nude trumpet dress with embellishments

If you like the Great Gatsby themed outfit above you’ll adore this dress option too. Similarly, it brings sparkling embellishments and flattering designs, which is a winning combo, if you ask us!

Black is one of the most common colors for Great Gatsby themed outfits, and there’s a good reason for it. Before the 1920s, people avoided wearing black because it was associated with mourning and death. However, in 1926, Coco Chanel released a short black dress in Vogue, and the color immediately became popular. People realized it’s so flattering and versatile—and shouldn’t just be worn at funerals.

This dress also features cap sleeves, which was a popular sleeve style during this era. Cap sleeves emphasize an hourglass shape. Paired with the bead designs, this number gives you gorgeous curves for days!

Styling tip: Curl your hair and sweep it to the side for a chic 1920s-inspired vibe. Or, if you want to create an authentic look, try your hand at finger waves.

3. Navy and champagne mermaid dress with beads

Another sleek Gatsby themed outfit is this navy and champagne dress.

The bead designs are more subtle than the other styles we showed you, but they’re just as stunning—and flattering! The sparkly beads gather at the waistline and flow vertically down the body, emphasizing a small waist and elongating your legs. The waistline is adorned with jewels, which further accentuates your hourglass shape.

Higher necklines were very common during the 1920s and this dress offers a modern take: a sheer crew neckline! It’s sexy, and at the same time, it provides the coverage that you need.

Styling tip:With a high neckline, we recommend styling your hair in an updo. Chignons are a popular Gatsby-inspired hairstyle so put your hair up and channel your inner flapper girl!

4. Gold mermaid dress with feathers and sequins

Of course, we have to show you an all-gold Gatsby themed outfit—because what could be more luxe than that?

We love that this gold mermaid dress pulls out all the stops with feathers, glitter, and sequins! You already know that glitter and sequins are typical of Great Gatsby-inspired dresses. But feathers are another detail that sets this fashion era apart.

If you research Gatsby outfits, you’ll likely see feathered headbands. Feathers on the shoulders and skirt are a modern take on this classic flapper accessory.

Styling tip: Long gold gloves would be an ultra-chic addition to your outfit. Add a traditional feathered headband if you want to embrace the feather details!

5. Black and gold mermaid dress with sequins

Head-to-toe sequins are a very popular choice for 1920s parties. Here, the gold sequins at the bottom of the dress mimic the look of fringe, which is a staple in flapper dresses.

Plunging necklines and form-fitting silhouettes were also very common during the ‘20s, and this dress offers exactly that. It has an illusion V-neck, which means there’s a mesh layer for added security. Dance the evening away stress-free!

Styling tip: Embrace the classic flapper look by adding traditional accessories, like a long beaded necklace and a sequin headband.

You spent months dreaming about the perfect wedding dress. All the details swirled through your head—the silhouette, the fabric, the length. But one aspect you probably didn’t think too much about is the neckline.

Most of us focus more on the skirt style or train when envisioning that walk down the aisle. However, the neckline completes the look and feel of your gown. It frames your face and draws eyes to your beautiful features. The neckline you choose can enhance your best assets or distract from problem areas. So before you decide on that perfect dress, we suggest you get up to speed on the neckline options. With the right neckline, you’ll look and feel like the princess bride you deserve to be!

Eight wedding dress necklines loved by brides

Understanding your options will help you select the most flattering design. Here are eight different wedding dress necklines worn and loved by brides.

1. Sweetheart neckline

The sweetheart neckline is a wedding dress neckline that’s very popular because of its romantic vibe. Shaped like the top half of a heart, it’s a beloved choice for wedding dresses due to its romantic appeal, which perfectly captures the vibe on that special day.

Sweetheart necklines are also a great choice for brides who want to show off their curves. This type of neckline highlights your décolletage, draws attention to your shoulders, and emphasizes your hourglass shape.

If you love this type of wedding dress neckline but want a more modest look, you can opt for a semi-sweet neckline (which is cut higher on the chest) or an illusion sweetheart neckline (which consists of sheer fabric overlay).

2. Off-the-shoulder neckline

The off-the-shoulder wedding dress neckline is another great option if you want to create a romantic, feminine vibe. Oftentimes, they also feature the sweetheart shape, but sometimes you’ll find straight-across cuts as well.

As the name implies, off-the-shoulder wedding dress necklines sit below the shoulders to highlight your collarbone and shoulders. They look great on all figures and bust sizes, so we recommend giving this style a try at your next shopping appointment!

3. V-neckline

V-necklines are one of the most popular wedding dress necklines. They’re sexy, flattering, and comfortable!

V-necklines create the shape of the letter “V” (Surprise, surprise!). This shape draws attention to a small waist and opens up the shoulders, creating an hourglass shape. It’s great for those who want to create the illusion of bigger curves.

We love that they can also be as daring or modest as you’d like. (Below, we’ll show you a plunging V-neckline!)

4. Deep V-neckline

Looking for wedding dress necklines that bring the heat? Keep an eye out for deep V (also known as plunging) necklines. As you may have guessed, this low-cut neckline is an accentuated V shape. It’s often found on the red carpet, so if you’re looking for a fashion-forward style, this could be it!

In addition to creating a dramatic effect, it also elongates your frame. So if you’re a shorter bride looking for extra height (without wearing extra high heels), this may be a great choice. You can also try on illusion deep V-necklines if you love this look but want more coverage.

5. Strapless neckline

Strapless cuts are everywhere, including wedding shops. If you plan on showing off your collarbone and shoulders, we recommend hopping on this trend!

Usually, strapless necklines are sweetheart or straight across. To feel secure in a strapless gown, we recommend seeing a tailor. They will make sure the dress fits like a glove. Using double-sided dress tape will also give you peace of mind!

6. High neckline

Exploring wedding dress necklines for a conservative or religious ceremony? Or maybe, you simply want to create a modest, understated vibe? High necklines are a great option. They offer fuller coverage and a timeless look. Instead of drawing attention to the collarbone, décolletage, or bust, sleeveless high necklines will highlight your shoulders and arms. Alternatively, you may want to explore illusion necklines as seen below. They add more coverage while bringing dimension to your look.

7. Straight across neckline

Like strapless necklines, straight-across necklines are having a major moment, thanks to the revival of ‘90s fashion. If you’re known to always rock the latest trends, why not try this style? This cut will show off your décolletage and collarbone while remaining quite modest.

8. Boat neckline

Many brides forget about boat necklines, but they’re a beautiful option! A staple of Old Hollywood, they instantly create an elegant, timeless look.

Boat necklines stretch wide across your neck and sit just past the collarbones. They look great on all figures, but we find that those with smaller busts or pear-shaped figures love this style.

In terms of coverage, boat necklines are very similar to scoop necklines. If you’re a fan of that style, then you should also give boat necks a try!

You’ll see that many of our newest dresses incorporate ruffles because they’revery in demand this year. Whether you choose an A-line or mermaid-style silhouette, the fluffy layers can easily add a dramatic effect. As you can see in the photo featuring our light purple dress, the A-line skirt becomes even more voluminous because of the ruffles. This particular number not only makes a statement, but it also emphasizes a tiny waist—and who doesn’t love that?

A ruffled A-line skirt paired with a corset bodice accentuates your hourglass shape even more. It’s such a flattering combination! Corset tops are also in right now, so you’ll hit multiple trends with this one look!

Barbie totally influenced this year’s fashion trends and we’re not mad about it! If you want to lean into your girly side, then this 2024 prom dress trend has your name on it.

Let’s talk about Barbie pink. This classic shade is described as a vibrant magenta. However, other bright hues, like fuchsia and bubblegum, also capture the Barbiecore vibe.

When it comes to silhouettes or details, there are no rules for Barbiecore. This trend is all about being unapologetically bold, bright, and carefree. So, if a bodycon dress makes you feel that way, rock it! If you want a big ruffled skirt, you go girl! We encourage you to choose a Barbiecore dress that’s true to you.

3. Bows

Get the look: GL3272 Asymmetric Glitter Crepe Mermaid Long Dress w/ Side Waist Drape

Bows are everywhere this year—including our list of 2024 prom dress trends! Fashion icons are all over this trend right now and you’ll see them rocking bows from petite ribbons to large, statement ones.

You want in on the trend, too? Then this dress won’t disappoint! This green glitter crepe dress features one large bow at the waistline. Glitter crepe is a smooth fabric that drapes beautifully along the body, which allows this bold detail to take center stage.

Bonus points? This dress also captures the asymmetrical trend, which is defined by a slanted hemline or neckline. The most common design is a one-shoulder bodice, as seen here. Asymmetrical dresses were very popular last year, and there are no signs of this trend slowing down.

4. Sheer layering

Get the look:GL3454 Glitter Sheer Bodice Ribbon Straps Ruffled Skirt Mesh A-line Long Dress

Sheer layering is one of our favorite 2024 prom dress trends. There are so many ways to take your look to the next level using sheer fabric! It adds volume and unique details without overpowering the other features of your dress.

For example, this blue A-line dress uses mesh fabric to create an asymmetrical neckline with one billowy strap tied in a bow. But because it’s sheer, you can also still admire the corset bodice.

5. Sequins

Get the look: GL3436 3-D Flower Sequin Sheer Corset Bodice Mesh Mermaid Long Dress

Ah, don’t we all love some sparkle! And what else can give you that perfect glittery glam look but sequins? This 2024 prom dress trend is for those who want to turn heads and shine all night!

The key to capturing this trend is committing to head-to-toe sequins. Don’t worry, many dress options embrace these shimmering details. If you’re looking for something sleek, opt for black or a gemstone hue. Or if you want something vibrant, choose a bright color like yellow, pink, or red.

This 2024 prom dress trend also encourages sequin-decorated accessories. Look for bedazzled clutches or shoes to complete your look.

6. Strapless

Get the look: GL3211 Embroidery Sheer Corset Bodice Trumpet Mesh Long Dress

Thanks to the explosion of ’90s-inspired fashion, strapless dresses are back! This style is great for emphasizing your hourglass shape because it draws attention to your shoulders. We recommend choosing a silhouette that will accentuate your curves even more, such as A-line or mermaid.

If you’re worried that a strapless dress will keep falling down, we recommend choosing a prom dress with a corset bodice with boning. It adds structure to the bodice and ensures everything stays put. Yes, you can throw your hands up in the air like you just don’t care!

We love garden parties! Whether for a wedding, a birthday, or even a family reunion, it’s always fun to dress up for the outdoors. Alfresco events give you the flexibility to wear whatever you want. A garden party attire can be long or short, formal or less formal. You can be all girly with pastels, go with an all-white ensemble, or stand out in the brightest shades. The possibilities are just endless!

To give you the inspiration that you need, we asked our style experts to share some outfit ideas. We’ve got a lot of pastel colors, light fabrics, airy silhouettes, and floral prints. We promise you’ll find the perfect outfit that makes for a chic yet comfortable look!

5 Gorgeous Garden Party Attire Ideas for Your Next Event

Ready to dig into the garden party dress code? Let’s take a look at these five handpicked dresses for all types of garden parties:

1. Blue floral A-line dress with ruffles

If you’re looking for garden party wedding attire, this whimsical gown is a stunning option.

The light blue mesh fabric, peppered with soft pink and green florals, creates a gorgeous color palette for any outdoor event. Plus, the off-the-shoulder sleeves and sweetheart neckline bring a romantic vibe to the look. If it’s an event where you’re celebrating love, it’s just the vibe you need! You can either show off your shoulders and collarbone and wear a delicate necklace, or keep your decolletage bare for an effortless look.

The ruffles bring a lot of fun to this garden party wedding look. And because of its mesh fabric, you don’t even have to worry about too much additional weight. The A-line silhouette also keeps this dress feeling light and comfortable.

2. Mauve A-line dress with floral applique

Mauve is a popular color for garden cocktail attire . It’s flattering on any skin tone and will bring out your natural tan.

Unsurprisingly, this garden party look also incorporates florals (Can you tell we’re big fans?). But this time, it’s floral applique. Applique is a weaving technique where one fabric is sewn on top of another, creating a unique 3D effect. It’s very popular for semi-formal, formal, and cocktail dresses.

Again, the off-the-shoulder sleeves and sweetheart neckline create a romantic, whimsical look—perfect for a romantic celebration outdoors.

If you’re looking for a dress that will keep you cool, look for light fabrics like chiffon. Loose A-line silhouettes and slits in the skirt will also make sure your dress is nice and breathable.

3. White two-piece dress with floral embroidery

What’s garden attire without florals, really? It totally embraces any outdoor party setting ! And if you love adding a splash of color to your looks, then this garden party attire was made for you.

With white as the backdrop, this bright floral embroidery stands out. You can admire every detail! As you can see, the embroidery decorates the waistline and neckline, calling attention to the smallest parts of your body. Why does this matter? Because it emphasizes your hourglass shape, and who doesn’t want that?!

A white chiffon dress is the way to go if your garden party is outdoors under the hot sun. White reflects the sun and chiffon is super light. Keep cool while looking oh-so-chic!

Get the look: GL2340 High-Neck Mock Two-Piece Long Dress with Criss Crossing Back Strap

4. Gray babydoll dress with floral lace

Are you looking for short garden cocktail attire options? There are many styles to explore!

We recommend babydoll or similar styles with loose, airy skirts. Not only are they comfortable on a hot day, but they also look flattering on any body type. Like A-line dresses, they cinch your waistline and highlight your curves.

This gray lace dress is a lovely look for semi-formal weddings, bridal showers, birthdays, and cocktail parties. The floral lace dials up the glam without adding too much weight. And the scoop neckline works for all types of garden parties. It’s very versatile!

You can then style this look according to your event. For a wedding, style your hair in a tight bun and wear heels. For a more casual garden event, styling your hair in loose curls and wearing wedges or block heels would fit the vibe.

Get the look: GS1614 3D Floral Applique Lace Short Dress

5. Mauve babydoll dress with gold embroidery

If glitz and glam are more your style, we’ve got you. After all, who doesn’t like a little bit of sparkle? And if you’re off to a garden cocktail party, metallic details are more than welcome.

Of course, it’s important to strike a balance when it comes to garden parties. This chiffon babydoll dress is a great example. Its short length is appropriate for semi-formal outdoor events and will keep you cool. Plus, the gold embroidery on the bodice has just the right amount of sparkle and will catch the sunshine beautifully.

Both mauve and gold are known to highlight your natural tan. We recommend adding some highlighter to your shoulders, collarbone, and cheekbones to make you glow even more!

The short length lets you show off your legs, so don’t forget to find the perfect set of heels to match. Something sparkly, or nude, is a great choice (Nude pumps will elongate your legs, which is a great hack for short girlies!). The deep V neckline also dials up the heat, but the flower applique balances the look. This combination brings a feminine, romantic vibe to your look.

One of our favorite details is the short mesh cape. It creates the illusion of a veil! It’s super lightweight, so you won’t get hot. It’s a great pick if you’re out in the sun or dancing the night away.

We love that its lace fabric gives a traditional bridal feel, while the silhouette and color bring some excitement—and isn’t that what you want for your bachelorette bride outfit? The short, flowy babydoll silhouette is perfect for dancing and the sleek navy color will make for a bold entrance.

The jeweled bodice also brings the sparkle that we all want in our bachelorette bride outfit, without being over the top. But if you want extra glitz and glam, don’t hesitate to rock some accessories.

Its silhouette and embellishments will also make sure you make an entrance. Bodycon dresses hug your curves and show off your figure. The sequins create a unique texture that will catch the light and make you shine. Plus, the feathers add a playful touch that’s fitting for any bachelorette!

This long two-piece bachelorette dress is perfect for daytime events like brunches, tea parties and picnics, winery tours, and more. We recommend this neon green shade because neon colors are in right now. However, this style also has a white option, if you’re looking for a classic white bachelorette dress.

Lastly, we always like to show at least one A-line dress to our brides-to-be. This silhouette is flattering on all body types. In this case, the embroidery also lines the waist, drawing attention to your hourglass shape. Hello, gorgeous curves!

Make An Entrance With These Beyonce Prom Dresses

If Sasha Fierce herself saw you in any of these Beyonce-inspired prom dresses, she’d be so proud! Let’s take a look, shall we?

1. Beyonce at the Met Gala

Several of Beyonce’s Met Gala looks consist of this classic color combo: black and gold. We don’t blame her. Together, they create a stunning, luxe look. Beyonce dresses for prom should also be ultra-glam. When else can you go all out?

This dress features a mermaid silhouette and sweetheart neckline a style that Beyonce loves to wear. Why? It shows off a woman’s hourglass shape. (Marilyn Monroe was also a fan!) To recreate her dress, we recommend thin or no straps. 

Don’t be afraid to accessorize with some bold earrings or necklaces. Beyonce always takes risks with her accessories, especially for the Met Gala.

Typically, Beyonce goes for an edgier vibe. This whimsical look is very different, which keeps fashion critics and her fans on their toes. If your style is soft and carefree, we recommend a Beyonce prom dress like this.

Like the original outfit, this tiffany blue gown is about its ruffled skirt. This Beyonce dress also offers an A-line silhouette. A-line dresses with full, voluminous skirts are super flattering because they draw attention to the smallest part of your body: your waist.

For the Dreamgirls premiere, Beyonce didn’t shy away from blue eyeshadow. Do you dare to recreate her makeup, too?

While you may not choose to accessorize with a dramatic headpiece, we recommend bold, chunky jewelry to achieve a similar look.

As prom dress experts, we hear these questions all the time: How much is the average prom dress?

When shopping for a dress, this is a very important question to ask because it helps you prepare a budget. But we’ll let you in on a secret: there’s really no one answer. In reality, you can find an array of beautiful prom dress options no matter your budget.

But to help you get a sense of prom dress prices and narrow your options, here are six prom dresses under three different price brackets.

Average Prom Dress Cost: Dress Options for All Budgets

Our goal at GLS Collective is to offer luxury dresses at affordable prices. All of these prom dresses are under $500. Let’s take a look, shall we?

Prom dresses under $250

Slay without breaking the bank with these dresses:

This Asymmetrical sequin mermaid dress

The average price of a prom dress totally varies—but it’s very easy to find gorgeous gowns for under $250.

Take this fuchsia mermaid dress as an example. Its color and silhouette are very trendy, while the asymmetrical neckline adds a unique touch. The high slit in the skirt allows you to rock your favorite pair of fancy heels. And it’s covered head to toe in sequins!

This luxe dress will totally turn heads. Our styling tip? Keep your hair and makeup simple and let your dress shine (literally)!

This metallic sequin and glitter mermaid dress

The average prom dress cost for this dazzling gown is also under $250. We know—it’s hard to believe. The metallic embellishments totally make it look more expensive, don’t they?

As you can see, you don’t need to spend a ton of money to create a luxe look. We recommend looking for prom dresses with silver or gold embellishments, like sequins and glitter, to dial up the luxury.

Black is the perfect backdrop for metallic embellishments. It really makes them pop! We recommend embracing this glamorous vibe and accessorizing with a sparkling pair of earrings or lariat necklace.

Prom dresses $250-350

Glitter mesh A-line dress

This mesh A-line dress is a stunning option if you’re budgeting for a higher average prom dress cost. Its voluminous A-line skirt will make you feel like a royal. And prom is totally an event to dress the part.

The corset-style bodice, paired with the full skirt, accentuates your curves and hourglass shape. It’s also decorated with floral applique, creating a soft, whimsical vibe.

The mesh fabric is covered in glitter, so you’ll shimmer under the evening lights. There’s so much to appreciate here—and yet it’s still such an affordable price! To complete this look, our experts recommend styling your hair in soft waves.

Silver embellished mermaid dress

When asked how much the average prom dress is at GLS Collective, our answer is that you can find many options and styles for a few hundred dollars. But of course, some are priced lower and some higher.

This gorgeous silver mermaid dress is under $350 as well, but the head-to-toe sequins make it look much more expensive. The detachable waist drape also helps create an upscale vibe.

Plus, we love the strappy bodice. It’ll make you feel more secure, all while making a bold fashion statement (we always love a 2-for-1 deal!).

How should you style this dress? We recommend eye-catching silver shoes and jewelry. Embrace the sparkle, ladies!

Prom dresses $350-500

Asymmetrical embellished mermaid dress

If you’re expecting average prom dress prices to hover around $350-500, we have options for you, too.

This yellow mermaid dress pulls out all the stops: a detachable waist drape, feathers, sequins, beads, you name it. They all come together to create a showstopping look.

The sunshine yellow color, paired with the embellishments, is totally giving sun goddess, don’t you think? We recommend finishing your look with bronzer and highlighter to create a sun-kissed effect.

Strapless ruffled trumpet dress

This last black prom dress makes quite the fashion statement. It has a trumpet silhouette, which is accentuated by a full ruffled skirt. You definitely won’t blend in with a silhouette like this one.

The strapless bodice offers balance to the look, so you won’t feel too covered up in fabric. Show off those collarbones and shoulders by sweeping your hair to the side!

So, how much should a prom dress cost anyway? We hope you never feel pressured to buy a dress based on what you think you should be spending. As you can see, there are beautiful prom gowns for all budgets. So we recommend setting a budget that you feel comfortable with. 

While the average prom dress cost is hard to nail down, we hope you have a better sense of prom dress prices and what types of dresses you can find for your budget.

5 Captivating Valentine’s Day Outfits

Ready to turn heads and capture hearts? That’s what we like to hear! Without further ado, here are our favorite Valentines outfits for women.

1. Red asymmetrical sequin dress

Surprise, surprise! This first Valentine’s Day outfit is red.

When you see the color red, what do you think of? Hearts, love, roses, fire, passion? All of the above are correct! These things come to mind for most people, so it’s definitely an appropriate color for Valentine’s Day.

This short asymmetrical bodycon dress is not only festive, but it’s also very sultry. It’s perfect for a night out with the girls or an intimate date night with your partner. The head-to-toe sequins will sparkle beautifully and keep all eyes on you.

Want legs for days? We recommend wearing nude heels! And if you want to accentuate the color red, incorporate it in your makeup—like your eyeshadow or lipstick.

2. Fuchsia asymmetrical long-sleeve dress

Pink, of course, is another popular color for women’s Valentines outfits. 

Pink is a mix between red’s passion and white’s purity, symbolizing love, romance, and affection. This color offers so many unique shades, allowing you to create the exact vibe you want. 

Want your Valentine’s Day outfit to be soft and feminine? Choose a mauve or rose shade. But if you’re looking for a more spicy V-day look, then you can’t go wrong with fuchsia! 

You can also define your look through embellishments. Sequins, feathers, and glitter will bring fun to any outfit. If you’re off to a party with friends, don’t hold back on these eye-catching details.

3. Red babydoll dress with applique

On your way to a dinner date with your valentine? Let’s find you a Valentines outfit that’ll take their breath away.

This red babydoll dress offers the perfect combination of sexy and cute (as Steve Carell from Crazy, Stupid, Love would say)! Its bright, fiery color and deep-v neckline certainly bring the sexy, but the applique and sweetheart neckline offer the right dose of romance, too. It’s truly the best of both worlds.

Bonus points? Babydoll dresses are super flattering. They cinch your waist and flare out at the hips, accentuating your hourglass shape. We love that this silhouette allows any woman to strut their stuff confidently.

Valentine’s Day is the time to embrace this eye-catching color, so we’re all for red accessories and makeup! With your shoes on display, we recommend a bold choice, like a metallic gold or silver pump.

4. Beaded rome jersey mermaid dress

If you’re headed to a dimly-lit lounge bar or restaurant and you want a body-hugging long dress for your Valentine’s Day outfit, look no further.

This mermaid rome jersey dress ticks off all the boxes: bright red hue, subtle yet dazzling bead embellishments, curve-accentuating silhouette, and soft fabric. (Yes, you can look this good, all while feeling comfortable.) The rome jersey also has a slight stretch, so the dress will fit and look like it was made just for you. 

To accentuate your hourglass shape, look for a bodice with a deep v-neck and thick straps. This design technique literally creates a “V” and draws eyes to your cinched waistline. (Your mermaid skirt is doing the exact same thing, but upside down!)

If red’s not your color, we have good news: this gown is also available in black—so sleek, right?

5. Ruched rome jersey mermaid dress

Looking for black Valentine’s Day outfits for women? While there are many options in our full catalog, here’s one of our favorites! 

Why is it our favorite, you ask? It creates an understated sexy and chic look. You can dress it up or down with your accessories, hair, and makeup. It’s so versatile, we bet you’ll wear it again and again!

The corset bodice shows off your curves and the slit in the skirt highlights your gorgeous legs. Your date is very lucky!

With a black Valentine’s Day outfit, you can be bold with your styling if you’d like. Opt for soft curls or a sleek updo. Rock barely-there makeup or a bold lip and smokey eye. Choose simplistic jewelry or statement pieces. There are many ways to glam up a black dress.

If you love this style but prefer color, we have more good news: this dress is also available in red and fuchsia.

Ready to travel back in time rocking the perfect nostalgic outfit? We won’t make you wait any longer. Find our top decade party outfit ideas below. 

1. ‘20s Party Outfit Idea

The roaring 1920s were all about riches, glamor, and lavish parties. So what did women wear? You guessed it: ultra glamorous, luxe outfits. 

If you’re looking for decades party outfit ideas that’ll transport you back to the 20s, Let’s get started with this flashy number. Decked out in beads and sequin embroidery, this dress will certainly catch eyes.

Get the look: GL3115 ​​Embroidery Sheer Side Mermaid Dress w/ Detachable Waist Mesh Layer

This is exactly what the 1920s party outfits were all about! Women loved rocking dresses covered in sequins, jewels, and beads, especially in patterns similar to this one. At the bottom of the dress, the embellishments also mimic the look of fringe—a staple during this period (Hello, flapper dresses!).

To style this dress, we recommend long gloves or a jeweled headband.

2. ‘50s Party Outfit Idea

If you Google decade party outfit ideas for the 1950s, you’ll see that women’s fashion was all about defining the waistline. Whether it was through a voluminous poodle skirt or body-hugging pencil skirt, ladies loved showing off their hourglass shape. Hey, we don’t blame ‘em!

This decade party outfit idea does just that—but offers a modern twist.

Get the look: GS2032 Embroidered Tulle Short Dress with Beaded Collar and Illusion Sweetheart Neckline

Poodle skirts were often paired with a modest top, like a collared shirt. This beaded collar here is an elevated take on these simple staples. Isn’t it cute?

The tulle skirt also provides volume to accentuate a small waist. Bonus points? Full, layered skirts are a blast when you hit the dance floor, trust us.

3. ‘60s Party Outfit Idea

In the 1960s, waist-defining dresses were still on the menu. But there were subtle differences between the decades. If you’re looking for decade party outfit ideas that’ll nail these differences and create an accurate ‘60s look, this two-piece dress is it!

Get the look: GS1439 Two-Piece Embroidered Pencil Skirt Dress

Here’s why. First, the bottom of this two-piece dress is a pencil skirt. Its job is to hug your curves and show off the smallest part of your body—your waist.

Boat necks were very popular during the 1960s and this decade party outfit idea covers this major style. And we’ll let you in on a secret: did you know that boat necks are also great for emphasizing an hourglass shape? Try it!

The floral embroidery is another cue that this is an outfit fit for the ‘60s. During this time, people loved rocking patterns—especially florals towards the end of the decade (Cue: the ‘70s flower power!).

4. ‘80s Party Outfit Idea

What’s your inspo for your ‘80s theme outfit? If it’s an ‘80s prom dress, you have to see this look!

This decades party outfit idea is all about bold and bright details. Bright pink color, ruffled skirt, sequins, and jewels—this dress brings all the flashy and the fun. And that’s exactly what you want in an ‘80s party outfit, right?

But if you don’t love fuchsia, any neon shade or bright color will do. Not down with ruffles? Look for other edgy details, like shoulder pads. When it comes to your ‘80s party outfit, you won’t run out of options. 

We also love that this dress brings the glitz and glam because the ‘80s loved shiny materials. For your ‘80s theme outfit, you can also look for a dress made of satin, lamé, or—if you dare—head-to-toe sequins!

5. 2000s Party Outfit Idea

Bright colors, metallic fabrics, body-hugging silhouettes—they’re all you need for a 2000s-themed party. Right now, the ‘90s and 2000s are taking over everyday wear. But with a 2000s party, you’re probably looking for decade party outfit ideas that really lean into classic 2000s styles. No problem, we got you.

Dresses in the 2000s were normally quite form fitting, so mermaid dresses are a great choice. They’ll hug your curves and slightly flare out at the knees, showing off your natural hourglass shape. 

The 2000s also embraced metallic fabrics, so we recommend trying on a lamé dress. It creates a fun, playful look that’s typical of 2000s fashion. Life’s too short for boring clothing! So step out of your comfort zone and choose something loud and fun. A bright color like turquoise? How Y2K of you!

Lastly, ruching was a popular trend in the 2000s and we’re happy to bring it back. Ruching can be used to slim your waistline—and who doesn’t want that?!

P.S. If you’re off to a 2000s party, you’re in luck. We have a whole article dedicated to 2000s outfit ideas here.

Gold was the go-to metal in the 1970s, so why not rock an outfit head-to-toe in this shimmering color? In the ‘70s, women were embracing their power and strength—and a bold look is perfect to show that off. 

This dress’ billowing cape mimics bell sleeves, which were very popular during this time. We love that this dress offers a modern take on a ‘70s staple.

When we said gold was the “it” metal in the ‘70s, we weren’t joking! So we’re bringing you multiple gold 70s party outfit ideas. This number ties in with several other 1970s trends, such as velvet, feathers, and puff shoulders. 

Velvet sits underneath the sequins here, creating a very unique texture. It also adds thickness, so if your party is in the evening or in colder months, it’s a great option for hitting the theme while staying warm.

Feathers were a favorite in the 1970s as well—especially detailing sleeve cuffs. They capture the carefree, fun nature of ‘70s fashion and would be perfect for a party atmosphere. 

Want to check off one more ‘70s style? Puff shoulders! They’re making a comeback, today, too. So this ‘70s theme party outfit idea will totally show off your strong pulse on trends.

3. Fuchsia sequin mermaid dress

The 1970s was all about expressing your individuality. So if you’re feeling something luxe, go gold! Something neutral? Brown is great. Bold and bright? Hello, fuchsia!

Fuchsia and bright pink shades were very popular in the 1970s, especially paired with bright yellow, orange, and green. 

Here, the iridescent sequins showcase the popular pink and orange combo and we’re all for it. This 70s party outfit idea also features a lace-up back. The laces offer a modern take on the 1970s fringe and tassel trends. Plus, the lace-up back will cinch your bodice and make your waist look snatched! Bonus points!

4. Sienna floral applique A-line dress

What about ‘70s party outfit ideas that’ll show off your inner flower child? Look no further. This sienna A-line dress is just the thing for you. 

If you follow our blog, we’re big fans of floral applique! It creates a unique 3D texture to your dress, which is guaranteed to turn heads. But for a 1970s theme party, it’s even more perfect. Flowers were very popular during this decade—and floral applique will ensure this trend is front and center for your look. 

We also love that this 70s party outfit idea offers comfort. Loose bottoms and skirts were very popular during this time, as women were entering the workforce. Yes, ladies in the 1970s also liked comfortable options! So if comfort is important to you as well, opt for an A-line silhouette. It flows along your hips and legs, which is perfect for dancing the night away.

5. Pink floral mini dress with off-the-shoulder sleeves

If you love the above option for its whimsical vibe, but wish it was shorter, then take a look at this mini dress.

Mini dresses were all the rage during the 1970s. At parties and festivals, women liked to show off their legs. This ‘70s theme party outfit idea offers a shorter hemline, while still creating a “hippie chic” look. 

As you can see, it also has floral details—but instead of applique, they’re highlighted through sequin embellishments. If you love a little shimmer and shine, you’ll adore this take on the ‘70s trend!

Off-the-shoulder sleeves also add to this look’s feminine, carefree vibe. We love that they’re secured by spaghetti straps. No need to adjust your outfit throughout the evening!
