1) Helmut Lang Sheer Hemline Dress – £59
As a huge fan of the current ‘slip’ trend, this cocktail dress ticks all of the boxes for me! It gives the effect of being a slip but gives you a little dignity in keeping things under wraps. I think it’s very Carrie Bradshaw – and we all want to look like her, right?!
2) Marc by Marc Jacobs Etta Satin Dress – £79
Cobalt blue is such a striking colour (and a huge trend of AW13) and so it’s sure to make you stand out at any cocktail party which is why I think that it’s a must.
3) Closer Canyon Ballerina Neoprene Dress – £39
The longer sleeves and flared skirt on this beautiful cocktail dress makes it very flattering and perfect for a multitude of occasions.
4) Christopher Kane Tulle Sheath Dress – £179
The mixture of tulle and velvet in this cocktail dress are a recipe for perfection and certainly ensure you being the belle of the ball. What I also love about this is the length, which makes a rather edgy outfit extremely glamorous.
5) Burberry London Milly Draped Dress – £59
You can’t go far wrong in black, and this figure hugging black cocktail dress from Burberry is absolutely stunning. Teamed with simple accessorises and bold lips, you’re set to look fabulous!
