<h2>Formal dresses that serve red carpet vibes</h2><p>Here’s the thing: Formal season is all about making a statement and showing the world you’ve arrived.

You’re not that girl anymore, and neither is your style. </p><p>At Hello Molly, our lineup of elegant evening gowns are made for big moments and even bigger entrances. From intimate family gatherings to grand ballroom weddings, we’ve got a dress to match any occasion. Choose from <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.uk/collections/mini-dresses">mini</a>, <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.uk/collections/midi-dress">midi</a> and <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.uk/collections/maxi-dress">maxi lengths</a>, dreamy <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.uk/collections/dresses/occasion_formal-&-cocktail">cocktail dresses</a> and trending <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.uk/collections/dresses/trend_corset">corset styles</a> that flatter in all the right places.</p><p>Feeling classic? Go for a sultry, floor-length gown. Want to spice things up? A strapless mini or a cut-out midi will do the trick. We know there’s nothing worse than showing up to an event in the same outfit as someone else. That’s why our stunning styles are anything but basic.</p><p>With our formal dresses, you can strut your stuff with confidence and know that you’re going to look your absolute best. So don’t stress, babe. Hello Molly’s got your back this formal season.</p><h2>Shop gorgeous evening dresses for women at Hello Molly</h2><p>Formal events are core memories. They’re the perfect excuse to dress up, be extra and feel like <em>that</em> girl. Think snatched hair, glowy skin and a dress that brings the drama in the best way possible.</p><p>Hello Molly's long formal dresses for women are made to shine from every angle the second you walk in. With hundreds of new arrivals landing weekly, you’ll never run out of OOTDs. Keep scrolling and find your perfect match!</p><h2>FAQs</h2><h3>What kind of shoes go best with cocktails and long formal dresses for women?</h3><p>For cocktail dresses, you can’t go wrong with strappy heels, slingbacks or cute mules. For long formal dresses, opt for stilettos, heeled sandals or even platform heels if you want that extra lift. Wearing a dress with a show-stopping slit? Up the drama with embellished heels or a fun ankle strap moment.</p><p>Pro tip: Stick to tones that match or complement your dress and keep the height comfy enough to dance all night.</p><h3>Can I wear a formal dress to a wedding?</h3><p>Of course, especially if the event says black tie. <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.uk/collections/dresses/occasion_bridesmaid-wedding-guest">Formal dresses for weddings</a> can include silk gowns, structured midis with sequin detailing or flowy maxis that shine in the daylight and under fairy lights. Just skip anything too white or too bridal-looking. It’s all about celebrating the couple, not stealing their thunder!</p><h3>What accessories complement a formal gown?</h3><p>If you're wearing a mini, go for bold chandelier earrings, a sparkly clutch and strappy heels. For a maxi formal dress, try sleek pearl or diamond drops, a satin or structured mini bag and barely-there heels that peek out as you walk. No matter you throw on, just make sure you match the vibe. If the dress is doing the most, keep accessories simple. If it’s more low-key, add a little sparkle. Confidence and a glossy lip? Always the finishing touch.</p>
