Mini & Midi Cocktail Dresses for Any Occasion
Mini cocktail dresses deliver major impact with every step. Explore strappy satin styles, glitter mesh minis, or ruched bodycon fits that pair perfectly with platform heels and statement earrings. Hosting or heading out? These dresses shine under the lights and keep the compliments coming.
Prefer a polished vibe? Midi cocktail dresses offer that ideal mix of sophistication and allure.

From rooftop weddings to summer soirées, these dresses glide from afternoon to after-hours with ease.

Is a Skater Dress a Cocktail Dress?
Yes! A skater dress can work as a cocktail dress if it’s made from an elevated fabric like satin, lace, or velvet. The flared skirt and fitted waist create a playful yet polished silhouette that’s perfect for semi-formal events. Look for details like sequins, beading, or an off-the-shoulder neckline to enhance its cocktail-ready appeal. Explore styles in rich colors for a sophisticated touch. Use the filters here or visit the Skater Dress collection to find your perfect fit.
Are Cocktail Dresses Short or Long?
Cocktail dresses are typically short to midi-length, with hemlines falling slightly above the knee to just below the calf. A tea-length dress (ending at the ankle) is another elegant option. While shorter mini cocktail dresses are perfect for date nights or graduation celebrations, a long cocktail dress in satin, lace, or velvet is ideal for formal events. Need a dress for a black-tie affair? Opt for a long-sleeve midi dress or an asymmetrical silhouette to make a stylish statement.
What’s the Difference Between a Cocktail Dress and an Evening Dress?
Cocktail dresses are designed for semi-formal events, while evening dresses are meant for formal occasions like galas or black-tie weddings.
- Cocktail Dresses: Typically knee-length or tea-length, made from versatile fabrics like crepe, lace, or satin.
- Evening Dresses: Often floor-length and crafted from luxurious fabrics like chiffon, velvet, or silk for a more formal look.
