adrianna papell black sequin dress Women's Short-Sleeve All Over Gown, Black, 10 : Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry Designed to dazzle Sequin Embroidered Gown In Black

Besides a navy suit, you could try out lighter variants or, for incredibly fashion-forward people, a bolder color like red

Think soft colors on your eyelids, pink cheeks, and a standout lip color to highlight how pretty you are and round off your classy look perfectly

For example, if you've got an ultra-tailored column skirt, style it with a draped off-the-shoulder top to create a subtle visual contrast (see above)

This approach works especially well for work settings, understated events, or when you want to let the cut and fit of the dress do all the heavy lifting

Navy gives the black and silver tie a strong contrast without moving too far from classic menswear
