Try On Cocktail Party Outfits Before You Buy
Cocktail attire sits between casual and formal, which makes it easy to misjudge. Preview your outfit on your photo to check you are dressed for the event.
Get the dress code right
Cocktail attire usually means a knee-length or midi dress, a dressy jumpsuit or a suit. The difference between polished and overdone is small, so a preview helps.
Compare a few options against the mood of the event, from a rooftop gathering to a formal reception.
Cocktail Party outfit tips
Aim for semi-formal
Think knee-length or midi dresses, dressy separates or a suit. Floor-length is usually more than the dress code needs.
Use fabric to dress up
Satin, crepe and tailored wool add polish. Compare a textured and a plain version on your photo.
Check evening light
Colors can look different indoors at night. Deep tones such as navy, burgundy and emerald are reliable.
How to preview cocktail attire
Upload a full-length photo
A standing, full-length photo gives the AI a clearer source image of the overall outfit.
Add several options
Try a dress, a jumpsuit and a suit if you are undecided.
Check against the invitation
Compare the results with the stated dress code and pick the best match.

Skirts
Skirt shapes and colors can change the direction of an outfit. Compare them on your photo to find a style that works with your tops.
