Formal attire for women: our essential accessories

When it comes to fashion: we do it in the details! It is indeed the accessory that will transform a pretty association into a chic and completely mastered finished look. As you will have understood, it must be chosen with care to enhance your look without ever overloading it.

Shoes to enhance your outfit

The choice of shoes plays a key role in balancing your silhouette. For a special occasion, you can opt for elegant and classic shoes, such as pumps or flat or heeled loafers. You can also allow yourself to add fantasy in these moments of joy and turn to heeled sandals decorated with subtle details (straps, gold or silver finishes, etc.). Anything goes, as long as the look remains balanced and coherent.

Jewelry to complete your look

This is an often overlooked step, because we underestimate the power of jewelry to enhance a look. But know this: a well-chosen piece of jewelry highlights the finesse of your outfit without ever overshadowing the whole. It's time to put away everyday jewelry to choose exceptional pieces that enhance your outfit and give it an extra touch of refinement.

If your outfit is chic and minimalist , you can opt for XXL jewelry such as oversized earrings, chunky chain necklaces or cuffs.
If your outfit is more sophisticated , opt for delicate necklaces, dangling earrings or understated complete sets.

Elegant bags and clutches

A well-designed bag is the perfect accessory to complete your look. To complete a sophisticated outfit, opt for satin clutches adorned with pearls or metallic finishes. Bags, on the other hand, are perfect for having the essentials always at hand. To accentuate an elegant look, opt for models with clean lines in neutral hues.

Our tips for choosing your formal outfit

Choosing the perfect formal outfit isn't just about the right combinations of clothes and accessories. It's also about considering the colors and materials that will flatter you.

What colors should you choose according to your skin tone and hair?

Light skin tones brighten up with pastels and cool undertones, like blue or lavender. Warmer skin tones thrive in shades like terracotta, burgundy or gold.

Blonde hair pairs best with softer shades, while brunettes and redheads can afford deeper, bolder tones.

Which materials should you focus on?

Satin, with its luxurious sheen, is ideal for prestigious events.
Lace, timeless and delicate, evokes romance.
Muslin or crepe bring lightness and fluidity.
Linen or silk, perfectly worked, are ideal for summer ceremonies.

Here again, we think balance. For a long dress or flared pants, it is better to choose materials that have hold. A short dress or skirt will be ideal in chiffon or crepe.
