Top 5 Embellished Cocktail Dresses
Nude Turquoise Beaded Form Fitting Short Dress 27197
This nude dress is embellished with the most stunning turquoise bead-work. A simple sheath style, this form-fitting short dress shows off your figure. The nude fabric allows the colorful beads to stand out and shine.
With a ‘barely there’ look, this dress has a bold modern appearance that instantly gets you noticed. The turquoise beads have a slight boho vibe that you can style with matching accessories. The bead-work is laid out to create a faux plunge on the bodice, adding drama.
The neckline is also rimmed with further detailing, creating the illusion of a necklace. That means you can wear minimal jewels with this piece. A pair of chandelier earrings is all you need for a sophisticated evening look.
Dress this up with coordinating nude or turquoise accessories. A braided half-up style will offset the carefree boho vibes. Alternatively, opt for a clean chignon bun for classic elegance.

Investing in a dress with timeless appeal is important if you want a dress you can always count on. This fitted nude design has that classic glam all wrapped up. The long sleeves and simple v-neckline make it perfect for evening celebrations.
Beautifully fitted to make those curves stand out, this dress shows off just the right amount of skin. It’s covered in glittering silver and gold sequins all over. Intricately created, this design has that couture feel that never ceases to amaze.
Surprisingly neutral, you’ll find that this dress will collaborate harmoniously with your existing wardrobe. Team it with a leather jacket for date night, or add skyscraper heels for a cocktail event. It has so much sparkle that your accessories should be pared back and refined.
Wear this with red lipstick and a loose hair bun for a relaxed, sexy evening look. Add black heels and a black clutch, or experiment with one pop of color. Opt for a neutral pink/beige manicure for a polished finish.

Adding fringe into the mix gives this cocktail dress a roaring ’20s, Gatsby-inspired finish. This navy beaded piece mixes a selection of jaw-dropping blue-colored beads. These form an incredible, artistic pattern that swirls down this design.
The hemline is composed of fringe beading. This unique finishing touch adds movement and lets you twirl dramatically on the dance floor! The neckline has a keyhole cutout that adds an attractive glimpse of skin to the front of the bodice.
Heavily beaded, this design is composed with so much attention to fine detail. The silhouette is striking and flattering, suited to an array of body types with its feminine shape. The contrasting tone beads give this an epic ‘wow’ factor.
Team this up with metallic silver heels and a coordinating shoulder bag for a party. Opt for a glowing complexion with subtly contoured features. Silver nails in a matching metallic finish will tie the whole outfit together.

This burgundy dress takes a slightly more subtle approach to embellishment. The fabric and beadwork creates a seamless, sparkling look. The beaded elements add that luxurious finish and set this apart.
With a high halterneck cut, this design hugs your figure beautifully. It’s punctuated at the waist with a design accent composed of lines of beads. This has a slimming look that makes for a soft, feminine shape.
The deep burgundy color is so flattering and currently on-trend. The perfect party number, you’ll find this dress will fit in with many occasions. That’s even including weddings and Homecoming.
Dress this up with white or gold heels, and stick to the same color for your bag choice. Add a pair of gold earrings and wear your hair in a half-up style for a semi-formal event. With this dress, a smokey eye or cat-eye eyeliner will make a big beauty statement.
