What is in the Formal collection

Here separates matter as much as dresses. Midi dresses and blazers are the two largest groups, then gowns, skirts, pants and shirts, plus velvet satin ao dai sets for a traditional silhouette.

For evening formal, TRACY STUDIO makes the Cisneros Cape Queen Anne Neck Velvet Satin Floor Length Dress, the Stephanie Sheath Long Sleeved Crepe Midi Dress and the Luster A-line High Neck Velvet Satin Floor Length Ao Dai Set. CHANCOS offers the Matilde A-line Long Sleeved Velvet Satin Maxi Dress, TINY INK the Valentina Drop Waist Cape Sleeved Zibeline Floor Length Dress, and Maison des Copains the Denisse Sheath Square Neck Satin Floor Length Dress.

For daytime and business formal, SEYCHAS makes the Ava Sheath Long Sleeved Polycotton Midi Dress, the Lender Straight V-Neck Twill Silk Blazer and the Secret Sheath Waist Pleated Knit Midi Dress. THE SOUL offers the Halo Straight Double Breasted Wool Blend Blazer, Lecia RTW the Colby Straight Double Breasted Tweed Blazer, and JENNY K TRAN the Barrow Peplum Notch Lapel Wool Blend Blazer. Pair them with the Cardiff Straight Ribbed Crepe Floor Length Pants from LEKIEU.

How to read a formal dress code

Business formal: a blazer with a midi dress, pants or a skirt in wool, tweed or crepe. Cocktail formal: a midi dress in velvet, satin or lace. Black tie: floor length, where the velvet satin gowns and ao dai sets belong. When an invitation only says formal, a floor-length dress with sleeves is the safest reading.

Gulf customers choose heavily from the long-sleeved, high-neck and cape pieces, and the velvet satin ao dai sets from TRACY STUDIO are a frequent pick for Eid dinners. US, Canadian and Australian customers more often build an outfit from the blazers and pants. Everything is made to order, so trouser length, sleeve length and blazer fit come from your measurements.

Can I wear a midi dress to a formal event?

Yes for cocktail formal and business formal. For black tie, choose floor length; the Stephanie midi from TRACY STUDIO works for the first two, the Cisneros gown for the third.

Are the blazers lined and structured?

The wool blend and tweed blazers from THE SOUL, Lecia RTW and JENNY K TRAN are structured and lined; the twill silk blazer from SEYCHAS is lighter. Each product page lists fabric and construction.
