So, shop away if you need a wedding guest outfit or want to prepare for all the one-day/what-if events you've imagined. We've broken down the following 20 frocks by price — starting at $69. There are evening dresses with long sleeves for chilly nights, glamorous minis, and ones with show-stopping details. We don't believe in the rule that you can't wear elegant evening dresses once, so in our book, any piece is worth the splurge.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. All product details reflect the price and availability at the time of publication. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
