I'm sure each person has their own individual taste especially in their dressing style for special occasion. But I'm not sure how formal the dress code is but a dress or maxi skirt won't go amiss on this sort of occasion. Sometimes when we hear special occasion, it immediately cross in mind that it should be a glamor layered hijab with so many colors and full accessories, etc. Well, it shouldn't always be like that. When i think about special occasion, what first cross in my mind is a satin colored shirt tucked in with a "not your usual everyday" hijab style and a cute contrasting clutch. like this:
And I loooove this outfit by Shaikha Mozah! It's young, fun and perfect for a formal dinner or attending a wedding party:
If you want to look sophisticated in black, (black is always a safe color), I really love below black dress. it's very simple and sophisticated, you just need to add a hijab on with some accessories of course so it won't really look too simple:
Another idea is to wear a maxi dress of your choice and glam it up heels/wedges, a jacket to make it more formal and a clutch. This look would work best if the event isn't as formal as a prom or dinner but you are expected to look smart. This look is pretty casual but it shows you what i mentioned above.
If you want a more promy look, I would advise a simple evening gown coupled with a bolero or fur. Something like this would look cute for a more formal event where women are wearing evening gowns:
For those of you who love to wear Abaya, for a special occasion, try wearing a glam Abaya and some accessories on your black hijab like this:
I hope this post help those of you who is wondering what to wear to a formal occasion, dinner party, prom, wedding party etc :)
