Women’s Petite Formal Dresses

Women’s Petite Formal Dresses

A stylish women’s petite formal dress is a must-have for any woman who has any upcoming social events on her calendar, including weddings, graduations, and parties of any other kind. Finding a petite evening dress isn’t just about having something that is stunningly stylish. Whatever formal event you attend will likely be several hours long, so comfort is equally important! At Lands’ End, we are proud to offer a wide array of beautiful special occasion dresses that you can wear to more than one formal event.

Petite Special Occasion Dresses

You can never go wrong with a special occasion dress that is minimalist yet timeless and elegant. Depending on the overall style, fabric quality, and design features, many special occasion dresses can also double as corporate attire, giving you even more use out of the dress. For example, a short-sleeve Ponte dress in a charcoal gray color is perfect for days at the office and social events like brunches, lunches, and cocktail parties. If you want to dress up the look even more or add your own style twist to the outfit, these simple yet elegant dresses look fabulous with a women’s blouse or soft cashmere cardigan layered over them.

The special occasion dresses for petite women that we carry at Lands’ End are all designed with different types of fabric and unique style features. Some of our special occasion dresses are constructed with a thick, warm wool material (great for fall and winter events), while other dress styles are made with a blend of polyester and rayon for a lightweight, flexible feel. There is also a great deal of variety in terms of the length and cut of these special occasion dresses. If you prefer a shorter style, you will love the look and feel of a knee-length Ponte dress with short sleeves or ¾ sleeves. A few outfit choices are as eye-catching, stylish, and comfortable as a long maxi dress with a tropical or floral print during the summer season.

All of our special occasion dresses can be worn on their own and look fabulous. But you can also style and accessorize them to your liking. Pair the dress with a second layer in a contrasting color, a cute clutch purse, or a pair of statement heels to complete the look you need for that special dinner party, cocktail hour, or family reunion.
