There's a reason body-con dresses are considered a classic at this point. They're figure-flattering (yes, for any body type and age), and their sultry silhouette makes them a top contender for dressier occasions like date night or a wedding. With so many eye-catching pieces on the market, the most intimidating part is finding one that's right for you. Here, we narrowed down several noteworthy body-con styles that cater to a wide variety of tastes. We'll bring the dress options, you bring the confidence. Deal?
A Neutral Color
You can never go wrong with a simple body-con minidress [2] ($45) for a Summer wedding, especially one in a pretty pastel hue. The dusty rose shade serves as the perfect muted canvas for killer statement accessories.
An Off-the-Shoulder Silhouette
This lace dress [3] ($79) updates a timeless texture with a shock of fuchsia. It's fun and fresh, but still elegant with the notched sweetheart neckline and off-the-shoulder sleeves.
A Floral Print
Tropical colors, large-scale florals, lengthening silhouette — you'll definitely stand out from the wedding crowd in this bright and bold midi dress [4] ($285).
A Midi Length
The deep V neckline and summery mustard shade make the simple silhouette of this midi dress [5] ($168) all the more alluring.
A Floor Length Gown
For more formal occasions, a full-length, figure-hugging gown [6] ($278) is sleek and sophisticated. The rich emerald hue is a departure from the standard black and the sultry low-cut back offsets the otherwise simple cut.
A Strapless Silhouette
This strapless midi dress [7] ($65) brings the fun with the exaggerated bow and vibrant cobalt color. Combine it with equally vibrant accessories for a playful look.
A Pastel Shade
A tank dress [8] ($56) is the ultimate comfy choice for a daytime wedding. It's soft and forgiving (thanks to the side ruching) but still entirely suitable with the crossover hem detail and lavender color.
A Layered Fit
You don't need much accessorizing with this dress [9] ($139), which features a jeweled mock neck to draw attention to your face and cropped top layer to highlight your waist.
A Metallic Mini
This metallic minidress [10] ($278) is full of contrasts — in the best ways. The glam gold threading juxtaposes the casual ribbed texture, and the high neck balances out the short length.
Statement Sequins
Light up the dance floor with a reception-ready minidress [11] ($102) that's covered in rainbow sequins and hugs every curve.
A Classic LBD
A little black dress [12] ($178) will never fail you, no matter the occasion. This one features an off-the-shoulder design that brings a modern touch to a timeless piece.
