What would you say your style is like? Elegance and feeling and looking ridiculously great is personal and subjective based on our own tastes (which I love, tbh). With that said, here’s where I typically look: -Rent the Runway -Rouje (I found a gorgeous black silk dress with lace trim on the shoulders that I love to wear for semi-formal events) -Reformation (secondhand) (I personally feel their products are overpriced, but damn do I love/hate how well they consistently fit and how I feel in their dresses, so I source mine on Poshmark and Depop) -A.L.C -Doen (secondhand) -Self Portrait -Staud -Nordstrom (general browsing) More on reddit.com

First, take a deep breath. We've got you. Second, based on the dress code, it sounds like they mostly just want folks to "look nice" first and foremost. And would appreciate colorful/festive looks second. But that doesn't mean having to push your comfort zone with anything super bold if that isn't your jam. Third, where to look depends a bit on your budget, which country you are in/need things shipped to, and if you have any special sizing needs (petite, tall, curvy, etc.). But here are some initial ideas/examples from a variety of places and price points to give you an idea of what to look for: https://www.nordstromrack.com/s/bebe-printed-satin-bias-midi-dress/6760189?&color=474 https://www.nordstromrack.com/s/tommy-hilfiger-flutter-sleeve-floral-chiffon-midi-dress/8143023 https://www.nordstromrack.com/s/by-design-ava-one-shoulder-wide-leg-jumpsuit/6102616?o&color=690 https://www.bostonproper.com/products/proper-poppies-fit-and-flare-midi-dress-proper-poppies-border https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/us/p/the-a-and-f-julia-slip-puff-sleeve-midi-dress-59209822?categoryId=612653165&faceout=model&seq=02&afsource=social+proofing&pagefm=navigation-grid&prodvm=navigation-grid https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/us/p/the-a-and-f-emerson-poplin-puff-sleeve-midi-dress-56377868?categoryId=612653165&faceout=model&seq=06&afsource=social+proofing&pagefm=navigation-grid&prodvm=navigation-grid https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=767456032&cid=15292#pdp-page-content https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=759291032&cid=15292&pcid=1529#pdp-page-content https://petalandpup.com/products/seychelle-dress-navy?variant=31282178588746 https://petalandpup.com/products/arlo-midi-dress-navy?variant=43981634961585 https://petalandpup.com/products/amren-dress-black?variant=41106655215793 More on reddit.com
