YOUR ULTIMATE GUIDE TO PARTY DRESSES FOR WOMEN

Understanding party dress codes can sometimes feel like you're solving a puzzle, but fret not - at Billy J, we're all about making things easy for you. 

Black Tie

The perfect party dress for black tie events can be found in our evening dress collection. The elegance and sophistication of these evening party dresses make them perfect for black-tie events.

You’ll want to lean towards longer styles rather than mini dresses or cocktail-length party dresses for a black tie event, so a full-length maxi dress or one of our midi party dresses may be more appropriate that effortlessly balances glamour with a touch of casual chic.

Cocktail

Our party dresses for women are made for cocktail events! Cocktail as a dress code has become the default for many, as it brings sparkle and sophistication to your event. If you’re looking for a hen’s party dress or New Year’s Eve party dress and the dress code hasn’t been defined, assuming the code is cocktail is a safe bet.

Look for shorter dresses in our party dress collection or ones with flowing skirts to make kicking up your heels on the dance floor much more fun!

Festive

When the dress code is festive, the world is your oyster! Opt for bright, fun party dresses in luxurious materials from our women's party dress collection to add a festive flair to your look! Browse the range of bright, fun colours in the Billy J party dress collection, and go for making a statement in bold reds or blues. Festive is also a good theme to consider when you’re looking for a birthday dress for your own party.

Smart Casual 

If the theme for your party is smart casual, there are plenty of casual dress options in our collection. When choosing a more casual party dress, opt for clean linen fabrics featuring bright patterns.
