If the corporate event will take place in a restaurant, then an evening long dress that will look elegant and sophisticated will be a great solution. If the celebration will take place in an ordinary setting, then a cocktail dress for the office with a length slightly below or above the knee is the best option.

When choosing a color scheme, it is worth remembering that the dress should be plain. Popular shades of business dresses for the celebration are white, black, burgundy, dark blue and purple, and pastel colors are also common.

Decor

    Office dress should be closed, but at the same time stylish. I envy women with an hourglass figure who can wear a semi-fitted dress even for work. With my wide waist, I can't afford it. Thanks for the selection of photos! Lots of interesting options.
