Evening wear that always brings the fun factor
These after-dark outfit formulas always work.
Night-out dressing doesn’t have to be complicated. Whether it’s dinner, drinks, or dancing (or all three), the key is adopting an evening wear outfit formula that feels elevated and effortless. This season, we’re turning to two tried-and-true combinations to make after-dark dressing easy. The best part? These looks take the guesswork out of getting ready – mix, match, and go.
Outfit Formula 1: Bright Dress + Bold Earrings + Trench Coat
The beauty of a bold colour? It elevates even simple silhouettes, turning everything from a sleek slip to a structured mini into a statement. This season, vivid reds, electric blues, and punchy pinks are everywhere – pick the shade that speaks to you and let it do all the work. When wearing a single hue from head to toe, contrasting neutral accessories will tone it down.
A classic trench coat from Uniqlo or Assmebly Label is the perfect way to balance out a vibrant evening dress, adding a layer of polish while keeping the overall look effortless. The softly structured shape complements swishy fabrics beautifully, dialling them down just enough to feel put together rather than overly dramatic. Choose a neutral shade like beige, camel, or soft grey to let the dress shine.
Statement Mimco, Swarovski or Dracakis earrings are the final piece that ties everything together. Whether you’re into sculptural gold, oversized hoops, or jewel-toned drops, they add sparkle and shine without competing with the dress. The trick? Sweep your hair back – in a sleek bun, loose updo, or a high pony – to let them shimmer. It’s a simple styling hack that will make all the difference.

Outfit Formula 2: Knit Top + Slip Skirt + Statement Accessory
A silky slip skirt is one of the hardest-working pieces in any wardrobe - find a variety from General Pants, Decjuba or Witchey. You can dress it up, dress it down, and wear it just about anywhere. It’s polished enough for dinner, relaxed enough for weekend plans, and effortless enough to throw on without overthinking. The key to translating it into evening wear is in the styling: paired with a soft Uniqlo knit, it’s easy but elevated.

A textured top adds contrast to the fluidity of a silk or satin slip skirt, keeping the look grounded while still feeling refined. Whether you’re into fitted ribbed styles from Glassons or something slouchy and oversized from Assembly Label, this is a pairing that always feels effortless. If you go for a muted bottom, try a vibrant colour on top – think rich burgundy, cobalt blue or a splash of citrus.

The finishing touch? Tonal outerwear and a statement accessory (or two) to pull it together. Make your own rules – bold Gregory Jewellers earrings, bright Mecca lipstick, a sculptural Mimco bag, or a standout belt can all elevate your outfit by infusing it with personality. This combo is an easy look that translates especially well from day to night; switch out your sneakers for Novo Shoes heels, and you’re good to go.
