When we receive an invitation to a formal event, the excitement inevitably comes with the question: what should I wear? Choosing the right look isn't just about following protocol, it's about feeling confident, comfortable, and, of course, spectacular.
From Rivera, we bring you the keys to a successful formal event with several women's dresses that are perfect for both daytime and evening events.
Bright looks for daytime events
Daytime events invite you to play with light colors, vibrant tones, and lighter fabrics. Natural light allows prints and textures to take center stage.
In these cases, flowing dresses with a good drape and flattering cuts are a winning choice. Opting for shades like soft green, coral, or light blue brings freshness and elegance in equal measure.
Pair them with court shoes and clutch bags for a balanced and sophisticated look.
How to get it right if the formal event is at night
Evening is the perfect time to dare with deeper tones, satin fabrics, and certain prints. Evening events are perfect for exuding elegance at its finest, with dresses that play with movement and shine.
For this type of event, you can opt for colors like midnight blue, black, burgundy, or deep green, combined with accessories that add a touch of light to the outfit. To achieve this effect, wearing gold or silver jewelry is always a good choice.
The goal is to project a sophisticated and confident image, with dresses that, thanks to details like shine and an impeccable drape, make a difference in your style.
Versatile shades that work best for all-day events
There are times when an event starts in the afternoon and continues into the evening. In these cases, choosing a versatile dress is key to maintaining your freshness and elegance as the hours pass.
The trick is to choose pieces with timeless cuts and fabrics that adapt to different environments. You can pair the dress with an elegant, light jacket or a frock coat at the beginning, and let the design speak for itself when night falls.

Final tips to shine at any formal event
- Respect the dress code. If the event has a dress code, use it as a starting point, but always add a personal touch.
- Go for comfort. Don't sacrifice your well-being for a design. A dress should allow you to move and enjoy yourself without restrictions.
- Take care of your accessories. Your shoes, handbag, and jewelry are just as important as your outfit. Coordinate them so everything flows harmoniously.
- Consider the weather. Outdoors, always wear a cape or a coat that complements your look without detracting from it.
