A fitted gown is the perfect way to boost your confidence and make yourself feel your most beautiful, regardless of the occasion. A figure-hugging piece will carve out your silhouette, highlight your curves and bring a striking feel to every event, formal or informal. If you are searching for the perfect fitted gown, consider these fashion-forward designs that are sure to tick all the boxes.
The Modern Minimalist
When it comes to fitted dresses, sometimes the best way to go is minimal. Securing a clean and simple bodycon gown with a V-neckline, spaghetti straps and figure-skimming skirt will mean that you are adding a completely timeless piece to your wardrobe that you can turn to time and time again. If you choose a refined neutral hue such as cream, ivory, white or black, you can use this piece as the perfect backdrop to all your eye-catching accessories and even layers such as silky shawls, an oversized jacket or a sheer undershirt for a little creative cool weather dressing.
Embellished all over
If you want to really enhance your figure in a feminine and head-turning fashion, then consider choosing a fitted dress embellished with shimmering jewels, beads or sequins. This is a stunning choice for black tie events or anything with a formal dress code. You can find embellished gowns in all manner of motifs, from small, delicate and neutral to bright, bold and beaming. A tonal pink will serve as the ideal canvas for crystal accents whilst gold or silver will bring a hint of glamour to shimmering sequins and beading.

Romantic ruching
Ruched accents bring textural interest to any cut of dress, but a fitted style really lets the drapes and folds of this design accent come front and centre. Look for a fitted bodice with a sweetheart neckline to serve as the perfect base for this ruching. Gatherings and tucks will highlight your waist and bring some dimension to the simple form fitting silhouette of your dress. Choose a ruched style in a sheeny satin finish to highlight the technique and style of your gown perfectly.
Asymmetrical accents
If you want to bring some creativity to your fitted dress, then look no further than an asymmetrical neckline. One shoulder styles will serve a modern finish that updates the event gown in a way that is still refined and effortlessly elegant. To up the unique feel of this piece, choose a bold pattern or jewel tone and adorn yourself with bold accessories.
Creative cut outs
A few cut outs can really elevate the fitted form of your body-hugging gown. Look to bold waist cut outs, an open back with lace up detailing or an alluring leg split to play with negative space and enhance your unique proportions. Carefully placed cutouts bring a statement feel to even the most simple of silhouettes, perfect for warm weather evening events, cocktail hours or more informal weddings. Be sure to keep your add-ons simple to let the boldness of your cut out fitted dress shine. A simple pair of strappy heels, a tonal clutch and dainty gold jewellery will be the perfect finishing touches to your look.
