What is a cocktail dress?
The beauty of a cocktail dress lies in its diverse styles, allowing you to express your personal taste and embrace the occasion's dress code. Whether it features intricate embellishments, a flattering silhouette, or unique details like ruffles or pleats, a cocktail dress is a step up from a casual dress or sundress, exuding a refined and polished look.

Can I wear a cocktail dress to a wedding?
While selecting a cocktail dress for a wedding, it's essential to consider the event's formality and maintain an appropriate level of modesty. Opt for a dress that is tasteful and avoids being overly revealing or casual. Aim for a sophisticated and refined look that complements the celebratory atmosphere.
When it comes to color selection, it's advisable to steer clear of white or shades that closely resemble it. White is typically reserved for the bride, and wearing it may unintentionally detract attention from her special day. Instead, explore a myriad of other colors, from vibrant and bold choices to soft and elegant hues that align with the wedding's theme or your personal style.

It’s a wedding in the Midwest in a boutique hotel with a formal attire dress code. Is the pattern too much? I like the dress and would wear it again which is why I want to buy it
I am struggling to try to find something. I think I may be confused as to what is acceptable cocktail attire. In terms of color, I love olive green - I think that color is the most flattering on me! Though I'm not sure if that would work better for fall as opposed to spring.
Some stats: 5'10", about 180, size large. My body is pretty proportional. C cup that sags to my belly button lol (hence why I feel more comfortable wearing a bra). I don't like mini - definitely midi or maxi. I like my waistline and love accentuating that! No idea if this helps, but I have neutral/olive light-to-medium skin tone, brown hair, hazel eyes.
Any recommendations? Thank you in advance!
