What to wear to a corporate party? Costumes for middle age kids

Oncology

New Year's holidays are approaching, which means that working representatives of the fair sex should think about what they will wear to the holiday party. Almost every organization organizes a New Year's corporate party. For a festive evening with colleagues, it is worth choosing the most suitable clothing option and this should be done depending on a number of factors: body shape, financial condition, nature of the celebration, company dress code. Also, do not forget about the rules of good manners. Stylists advise avoiding very vulgar dresses, but there are some tips that you should follow.

5 tips to help you choose an outfit for the New Year party 2017

  • You should clarify whether your company has a specific dress code adopted in advance for the New Year’s corporate party. If this fact is not taken into account, you can end up in an awkward situation. For example, coming in a carnival costume to a New Year's corporate party, when everyone agreed that New Year's rain on the shoulders and Santa Claus's hats would be enough.
  • Consider the location where the New Year's corporate party will take place. For example, in a pub or bowling club, a lady in an evening dress will look ridiculous, just as a sweater and jeans would be appropriate in a luxurious restaurant.
  • Choose an outfit for the New Year's corporate party in which you will feel confident and at ease. If you have never worn a mini-dress, stilettos or a tuxedo, you shouldn’t wear them to a New Year’s corporate party in order to “conquer everyone.”
  • If you are in doubt about choosing an outfit, give preference to the classics. It’s still not worth shocking the public with your bright outfit or makeup; alas, even at a New Year’s corporate party, management can observe employees.
  • Accessories. You need to emphasize your individual style, but only observe the measure. Firstly, you are not a Christmas tree, so you shouldn’t “hang” all the contents of the box on yourself; secondly, even if you have diamonds and other family jewels, it is not appropriate to emphasize your status at a New Year's corporate party, especially if you work as a middle manager and your boss wears jewelry bought in the passage.

How to choose clothes for a New Year's corporate party 2017

As a rule, most corporate parties give the right to choose absolutely any style, but you should not get too carried away. This is especially true if you are not the last person in the company and want to climb the corporate ladder. You should not give preference to tasteless and too revealing outfits. This can reduce authority among subordinates. In addition, this may make you seem frivolous and frivolous.

A corporate event requires you to demonstrate individuality and good taste. These should include perfectly fitting items, the right accessories and beautiful shoes. So, let's decide how to dress for the New Year corporate party 2017. The following tips will help you look bright, but not vulgar.

First of all, it is worth noting that it is better to abandon outfits of unusual shapes and lengths. It should not be too long, tight and short dresses that restrict movement. But scarves and trains will interfere with dancing during the celebration. Set aside similar outfits for other events where you don't need to move too much.

An ideal option is an elegant dress in which you will feel as comfortable as possible, and its decorative elements will not interfere with dancing. Remember that the dress should not wrinkle or bunch up. You should forget what you are wearing and enjoy the holiday. The outfit should suit you and be age appropriate.

It is not necessary to choose only a dress, because there are many other beautiful clothes. Remember that a corporate party is not a “red carpet”, which has a certain dress code. A good option would be a festive blouse with a skirt or even trousers. But the main thing is that it doesn’t look like office wear. The materials used should be more expensive and elegant.

Natural silk blouses and satin trousers look good, and the skirt can be lace, suede, brocade or leather. Today there are many different options, so there is plenty to choose from. As a result, you can assemble an elegant and harmonious set.

Pay special attention to underwear. The wrong kind of underwear can ruin even the most beautiful and expensive outfit. A tight or large bra will not decorate a blouse, and peeking panty lines will spoil the beauty of a tight-fitting skirt. Underwear should not be visible under clothing and conspicuous.

Don't forget the bra straps. This is a basic understanding of etiquette. Well, if they are not visible at all. But if this cannot be avoided, then replace them with transparent silicone straps. There is nothing worse than underwear sticking out from under a festive dress.

What to wear to the New Year's corporate year of the Rooster 2017: Actual colors

The colors of dresses are preferred in dark and cold colors. All tones of brown, blue and green are available for New Year's fashionistas. The gray color is extremely symbolic, and in combination with variegated colors. And a timeless black dress would be an interesting holiday outfit, and it doesn’t have to be “small.”

What to wear to a corporate party in the office?

Often companies celebrate a corporate party in the office. There are many options that will help you look beautiful there. At an “office” party, it is better to attract attention with modest sophistication. A jumpsuit could be a great option. It looks very stylish and beautiful on slender girls.

A dress can also be worn to the office, but only more closed than an evening one. To create a New Year's mood for yourself and your colleagues, it's a good idea to choose a dress with shiny elements.

If you decide to wear a suit for a corporate party, then it is also better to give preference to elegant options with gold and silver tints.

What to wear to a corporate event in a restaurant?

Going to a restaurant for a New Year's Eve celebration with a team requires some special dress code. For men, everything is quite simple. They need to wear a festive suit and that's it. But the fair sex needs to work a little on their image. On the other hand, this is a great chance to wear an evening dress for a corporate party, because you don’t look like work in it.

You can also create a chic look by choosing a beautiful fluffy skirt and blouse to match. The latter option will look more stylish, and more practical in life, since in the future you can combine the bottom and top with other pairs.

An evening dress is a classic. When choosing a style, remember that you should show off one thing: a beautiful back and posture, or long and slender legs behind a high slit. There is no need to be shy, but you should also know when to stop. Remember that a bare top does not go well with an open bottom. This only adds vulgarity, but not beauty and sophistication.

What to wear to a New Year's corporate event in the Year of the Rooster 2017: Accessories

Accessories and other little things, so important for style and delightful impressions, become of no small importance for the New Year. A strict plain dress in combination with a single brooch looks much richer than without it. Belts, pendants and belts made of golden or silver material give their owners a reflection of true grace. Elegance comes from thoughtful details - decorative art appreciates the little things and knows how to use them in a single harmonious style.

On the eve of the New Year, thoughts about outfits occupy, to a greater or lesser extent, all women without exception. There are countless tips and suggestions on this topic. If we put them together, the choice of outfit will depend mainly on two things: the location of the event and the rules adopted by the company. What is appropriate in a restaurant will look stupid in a cafe or in a country house outside the city.

Next comes advice on what you should absolutely not wear. It can’t be very short, very open, very tight, very transparent. I am sure that these are truisms for advanced readers of K24 (judging by the fashionable comments).

Therefore, I propose to consider less obvious cases of ridiculous, vulgar or simply not decorative outfits. Pay attention to the nuances that reduce the cost of the image. I share my experience of observing corporate parties.

So, the overall impression can spoil ...

…Underwear

More specifically, the wrong underwear. Any image "cheapens" with its unsuccessful choice. Lingerie, which sometimes treacherously, sometimes deliberately peeks out from under clothing.

Very bad , when it contrasts with the color of the clothes:

Silicone bra straps will not save the situation either. “Oilcloth” on the body cannot be invisible, it shines and reflects, sometimes digs into the body, and does not look very good. Instead of camouflage, these straps scream that we are wearing “camouflage” underwear; we can’t see anything! The impression of the most beautiful evening dress can be spoiled by such “invisible” devices.

You should always adhere to the principle: the less your underwear reminds you of yourself, the better. For open dresses and moderate sizes, the following silicone options are suitable:

It's no secret that transparency and lace are a trend that is not losing ground. The question arises, what to wear with such clothes? What color should the bra be so as not to vulgarize or cheapen the whole look? Many will say that a nude bodice is the right choice.

This will be the right decision only if your beige bra blends with your skin color and does not come to the fore in your look. I'll have to look for one like that. Sometimes another solution will be justified stylistically: a bra that matches the clothes.

A common mistake is wearing a white bra under white clothes.

The answer to the question whether underwear can even glow under clothing is not clear-cut. If it stylistically fits into the image, then it moves from the category of underwear to the category of decor - if you are pursuing certain goals, then why not.

The girl in the photo is an example of what not to do. Despite the fact that she tried, picked out underwear to match the skirt, and did not opt ​​for a banal black bra, her outfit does not make the most pleasant impression. A romantic blouse, a “folklore” skirt and earrings... and here you are! - aggressive, heavy, protruding bodice.

If instead you wear a bra without straps, and on top of it a lace bandeau that matches the blouse, the impression will be completely different - nothing will draw attention to itself, and the image will turn out to be seamless.

There are significant restrictions on transparency and visible bras, and they have less to do with fashion standards and more to do with your age and weight. It is impossible to name the exact number and limit when such a combination looks cheap and vulgar. For some people at 30 it’s no longer possible, but for others at 42 it’s still possible.

About tight clothes

Even the slenderest girls need to be careful when choosing such an outfit. Having eaten and drunk, our tummy can stop keeping itself in good shape and begin to fall out. And a protruding belly has never adorned anyone.

If you have imperfect shapes, and the dress you like strives to emphasize this, consider using shapewear. Worthy investment and a gift for the New Year.

The last thing you need to pay attention to is what to wear with tight-fitting clothes (especially thin and knitted ones), under which the outline of the bra, its seams, ruffles, and lace will always be visible.

To avoid this, choose underwear that is smooth and seamless, that is closed, and does not cut across the chest in the middle. Otherwise, the breast may give the impression of yeast dough that has escaped from the kneading bowl.

Cheap accessories

The simplest dress can sparkle if you attach decent accessories to it: shoes, handbag, jewelry, belt or belt. And vice versa, “jewelry consumer goods” can “pop” and “cheapen” not only an expensive dress, but also your image as a whole. No, I'm not against simple jewelry, but everything has its time and place.

If you are in the countryside or outdoors on New Year's Eve in a warm sweater and felt boots, then why not.

If this is a cafe, club or restaurant, then you don’t need satin ribbons, single beads, cheap buckles on belts and belts, handbags and clutches from a store like “Centro”.

The lady on the left made a vinaigrette: a chain, a bracelet, a belt and a dress from different operas. A bright, lace dress is self-sufficient, a chain with a pendant is superfluous here.

Although the bracelet matches the color of the dress, it looks very simple and does not harmonize with either the chain or the dress itself. A black leatherette belt further exacerbates the picture. The next lady's beads have a right to exist, but again the belt ruined everything: it was too rough and dark for her look. A thinner, more elegant, matching beaded belt would have looked much better. For the extreme lady on the right, the belt also “cheapens” the whole image.


Everyone has heard about the "little black dress", about the string of pearls to it. The woman on the left followed fashion advice, but did not take into account that the strand of pearls in the form of a floral applique was already on the dress. By adding beads here, we got “oil.”

If you doubt any decoration when creating your outfit, then it is better to refuse it. In any case, too little will look better than too much.

Faux satin and lace

We're talking about the cheap shine of polyester satin and cheap lace. If you need to look presentable, expensive, and your finances do not allow you to buy an outfit made of natural silk, then it is better to abandon its artificial analogues. Also, refuse cheap lace products.

The combination of a lace insert with thin knitwear of an indeterminate color is not the most noble combination.

The girl on the right is a flammable mixture: leopard + lace + baby face. Even if you are already “big”, pass by such outfits in the store.

Butter knitwear (on the second woman from the left) is also not a very good choice for a celebration. It looks unpresentable, reveals all our shortcomings and excesses. When choosing knitted outfits, focus on denser and less stretchy textures.

Bright, colorful and summer outfits

I will give examples of poor choice of colors or prints of outfits, which end up looking cheap and sometimes downright ridiculous.

The girl in the center has a too active and tacky print on her dress. It’s definitely not worth standing out from the crowd in this way. In general, by choosing bright and flashy colors, you risk being the black sheep at the celebration of life.

If the girl was not at a New Year's party, but in a cafe by the sea or with her loved ones at home, her outfit would not have caused any confusion. Give up summer sundresses on New Year's Eve.

Same story: a fun dress, but not for special occasions. The “pearls” are clearly too much, and this simplifies the whole outfit even more.

I urge all respectable women not only on New Year's Eve, but forever to abandon glossy oversized jackets.

Don’t hang yourself with tinsel and other New Year paraphernalia; that’s what the New Year tree is for.

About tights and sandals

What follows is not what you might think of when you read the title. Despite the fact that the fashionable taboo on such a combination is ingrained in the minds of not only stylists, but also mere mortals, I strongly recommend that you try this combination.

After all, what is modern fashion? Nothing more than a challenge to tradition. It makes no sense in our time to say that there are things that do not go together. Everything is possible, another question is that few people manage to present it harmoniously and stylishly. This is why ordinary people need fashionable rules and prohibitions so much.

Let's break one of them, it's not for nothing that manufacturers try and produce tights of different colors, textures, and densities. It would be a sin not to take advantage of this and not look for new forms for your images.

In these photographs the principle of combination is very simple. Choose sandals with thick matte tights in medium to high contrast with sandals. Tights with patterns and patterns will look great.

Flesh models that do not have a pronounced toe and heel part (monolithic) can also be used. Personally, this combination does not offend my aesthetic perception in any way. This invention, which has a black leg and white toes, looks much stupider and more absurd.

ABOUT Notice how the boots weigh down the image of a girl in a light lilac dress. With this kind of dress, even pumps will look heavy.

I would suggest the following options specifically for this dress and this girl:

You can “dress up” a light, airy dress and open up space for creativity by wearing a loose jacket or vest over it. Then shoes, boots, and thicker tights will do.

About men


Men traditionally pay little attention to New Year's outfits. At best, they are content with a slightly more elegant variation of an ordinary office suit.

And some don’t care at all, but at the same time they want to see women in all their splendor, they discuss and criticize their fashionable looks. Men, pay attention to your appearance on New Year's Eve!

conclusions

There are not as many “prohibitions” as you might think. All of them are not even from the plane of fashion and style, but from the plane of common sense. When forming their list, I was guided by a simple principle: an outfit should decorate us, emphasize our strengths and hide our shortcomings. And don't look cheap and vulgar.

Girls, although the article is dedicated to corporate parties, all the ideas are applicable to any other party! And not only New Year's :)

What to wear to a corporate event?

Not a question, but a whole puzzle! Since the phrase “corporate party” initially contains two opposing concepts, creating a festive look for this event must be approached especially carefully and thoughtfully!

Considering the fact that first of all you will be at work and only secondarily at a holiday, then when choosing an outfit, start from the word “corporate” and not from the word “party”.

Abroad, in most cases, the desired type of clothing is indicated in the invitation to the celebration. Our practice is not very common.

But if the invitation specifies a dress code, then you should strictly adhere to the recommended dress code.

For example, the invitation may indicate a certain color of clothing or style.

If there are no indications in this regard, then you should be guided by the corporate culture and the public/unspoken dress code in the company, the location of the event (office, banquet hall, nightclub...) and your position.

I suggest you consider several universal clothing options for a corporate evening!

Dresses for corporate parties: photo

LITTLE BLACK DRESS

With sleeves or open shoulders, fitted or loose fit. This is a win-win option for all occasions.

Of course, if black suits you unconditionally. And if you notice that black is not the best option for you, then choose either a deeper neckline so that the black is further from the face, or a noble palette of wine, ink, sea and emerald shades.

At the same time, remember that not every black dress is suitable for celebrating the New Year with colleagues. Options with “a lot of body” will look vulgar and inappropriate. After all, you are still at work :-)

Accessories for a little black dress for a corporate event

Complement your dress with stylish accessories and enjoy compliments from your colleagues!

COCKTAIL DRESS

If you want to look festive, feminine and elegant, pay attention to dresses designed for cocktails and parties.

Or opt for a casual sheath dress with a sophisticated cut and dress it up with bright accessories.

Be careful with low-cut dresses or dresses that are too short, no matter how proud you are of your figure :-)

Of course, such things are luxurious. However, think in advance about how you will feel and how it will look from the outside during and after the party, when all the male employees in your company will give you some attention.

Female colleagues may also demonstrate a certain reaction, so you should not wear provocative outfits for parties with colleagues.

SUIT FOR A CORPORATE PARTY

A suit, and ideally a tuxedo, can be 100 times sexier than any dress. The main thing is to choose a modern style and be the star of the evening!

SOMETHING TRENDY

If you want to look fashionable at a corporate event, then pay attention to this season.

Many girls will agree that current fashion is a bit dressy and not very casual. Just right for the holiday! :-)

DRESS TO THE FLOOR

If you decide to feel like a princess or a specific dress code was specified in the invitation to a corporate event, then you can wear a beautiful floor-length dress to the party.

However, in no case should it resemble a wedding! :-) And also your dress should simultaneously meet two components of the celebration: to be elegant (party) and discreet (corporate).

SEQUINS

An excellent choice for a corporate party, especially if the cut of these items is laconic and simple. You definitely won't guess!

LACE

For the last few years, we have been wearing lace around the clock :-) Therefore, you can safely choose a beautiful lace dress for a corporate party - this is a win-win option.

And then you can wear it with a voluminous jumper and sneakers or a biker jacket. In general, in the right hands, such a dress will recoup the investment :-)

COMMON TECHNIQUES

I've been a rebel since childhood! If everyone is wearing shoes, I wear sneakers! Of course, if this does not completely contradict the essence of the event.

Therefore, when all the girls came to prom in crinolines and wedding dresses, I was in a suit. And since then I haven’t parted with the suits.

I select tuxedo jackets and tuxedo dresses for many of my Clients for corporate events. And they are always the center of attention.

I'm also a fan of jumpsuits, i.e. overalls!

And, I honestly admit that for several seasons in a row I have been choosing stylish bomber jackets for parties for many of my beautiful Clients.

And, of course, even if you have chosen the simplest option, remember that you are going to a party, so high-quality makeup and good hairstyle that match the style of your outfit are required :-)

Experiment, girls! And tag Shopping School in your photos on Instagram, I want to see your New Year's Looks :-)

I wish you a wonderful time with your colleagues!

Many teams organize corporate parties on the eve of the New Year to move away from work topics, talk about interests and hobbies outside of work, get to know each colleague better, find a common language and become a little closer. The coming 2019 is no exception! Therefore, it is very important to prepare for this event by choosing an appropriate look that will meet the latest fashion trends and personal preferences, and also deviate from the strict office dress code.

So, what to wear to a New Year's corporate party 2019? The photo below shows the most interesting solutions in which every woman will feel confident, stylish and elegant.

How to dress for a New Year's corporate party?

Choosing clothes for a corporate party is not difficult, the main thing is to decide on the style and color scheme. For example, if the classic style is closer, it is better to stick to plain clothes and accessories in white, black and pastel colors. Vintage style welcomes floral and ethnic prints. Evening - floor-length dresses with a tight-fitting silhouette, with an open back or deep neckline.

Don't forget about accessories and jewelry, without which no look would be complete. Bags, belts and straps, earrings, bracelets and necklaces are important attributes of every look.

  • Cocktail Dresses

Short and mid-length dresses are the preferred outfits for any party. Thanks to their optimal length, they do not restrict movement and are easy to dance in and participate in competitions.

  • Evening dresses to the floor

Such dresses are more suitable for social events and restaurants, where special attention is paid to delicious cuisine, luxurious surroundings, classical or jazz music.

  • Suits

Classic suits with a fitted top and bottom in the form of a pencil skirt or trousers are the right solution for women who decide to impress the company's management in order to get a promotion at work.

  • Blouses

Plain blouses made of satin and silk are a practical solution for creating any look. They can be combined with any bottom, be it classic trousers or a bell skirt.

  • Shoes

In order not to look like a “black sheep”, stylists advise taking change of shoes in the form of closed shoes with you.

  • Accessories and decorations

Accessories should be matched to match shoes or outfits, and jewelry should not look like cheap jewelry, but expensive jewelry.

Basically, in each organization, shortly before the New Year holiday, they will be organized. Colleagues and colleagues in the workshop will gather to congratulate each other and, so to speak, in the "family" circle to celebrate the approach of the New Year 2017! What to wear to such an event always remains a problem. I want to dress up in a special way, because the occasion is good, but, nevertheless, magnificent outfits and a delightfully bright image are not always appropriate ... The point is where it is planned to celebrate corporate event, and based on this, you need to plan what you will wear there.

Restaurant

If the organizers of the party warn in advance that the celebration of such an important event will take place in the chic banquet hall of a local restaurant, then you will have to make every effort to match the spirit of the chosen institution. In this case, they choose beautiful New Year's dresses, modest and not very, depending on the relationship in the team.

They also do beautiful hairstyles and apply appropriate evening makeup. In general, the outfit chosen is bright and luxurious. Men wear suits and patent leather shoes.

In the country

A corporate party outside the city involves outdoor recreation - tubing, sledding, and ice skating. A cheerful group will have something to do. You will have to put on the appropriate outfit and, most likely, certainly not New Year's!

At a colleague's apartment

Often small companies organize such parties at someone's home. In this case, you don’t have to spend money on renting a room, everything is already decorated for the holiday, it remains only to figure out the festive table and get everyone together. In this case, you need to pick up something more modest, some not too evening dress.

Maybe even ordinary trousers or jeans with a T-shirt and a sweater, because, most likely, in the late afternoon you will go outside to ride the ice rinks from the local slide and fry a barbecue in the fresh air! In any case, such nuances and a vacation plan can be discussed in advance in order to be in shape.

At work

In most organizations, such banquets are held almost spontaneously. Literally in a couple of hours they call everyone, they say what to bring with them and what time to come. In this case, your regular everyday outfit will be more appropriate and will not make you stand out from the crowd. For ambience, you can throw on tinsel.

No matter where the New Year's corporate party 2017 takes place, you need to wear things that will be appropriate and comfortable for you personally, unless, of course, you were warned that you need to come in a fancy dress! In all other cases, the outfit should still be more business than with friends and family. Colleagues are, after all, neither friends and relatives, nor good acquaintances, around whom you can allow yourself to relax to the fullest.

In the company of these comrades, you must always keep your eyes open so that, as they say, if something happens, you don’t make a mistake. Work is work, your outfit may not always be judged correctly. A bright and luxurious dress, a seductive type, may be misunderstood by the assembled men and all that! The boss especially needs to be strict when choosing holiday clothes, because you are an example for your subordinates, an example!!!
