A cocktail party dress is worn to semi-formal occasions. One fashion expert has stated that every woman must own one to have a complete wardrobe.
Legendary French designer Christian Dior’s term ‘cocktail dress’ was coined in the late 1940’s prompting many manufactures to create a simple but yet elegant black dress often considered early eveningwear. The LBD ‘little black dress’ soon became popular in Hollywood cinema, where femme fatales were dressed in cocktails. Chanel also introduced the cocktail and party dresses and designed collections that have completed new ideas and changed styles. These houses have not only inherited the traditions shapes, but have now added more colour to these dresses.
