Cocktail Party

With a few summer parties in my diary, I will be looking for the perfect dress to wear. For Spring Summer 08 cocktail dresses are starting to emerge in the shops, after putting in a substantial appearance at the designer shows. Cocktail dresses are great for everything from a  drinks party to a ball and this season they have a cool eithties look about them. A cocktail dress was traditionally a womens dress worn for cocktail parties and  semi formal occssions. In the eighties the tight above the knee sheath like cocktail dress became popular and this feminine and glamourous look is now re-emerging for Spring Summer 08. They were seen on the catwalk at PQQ and Luella. Bright and bold colours look great for cocktail dresses and details sucha s folds, bows and draping look great with minimal or no accessories.  Here are my top three choices of cocktail dress for Spring Summer 08
