Navigating the Black Tie Season:
Which Kind of Guest Are You?
Written by Alicia Tomkinson
As the black-tie invitations start rolling in, the real question is: who are you in a sea of couture, glitter, and glam?
Put your mind at bay as we recount some of the season’s most sought-after styles and attitudes that we think would suit your occasion perfectly.
The Classic: This isn’t her first champagne toast. She’s been a staple at these events for years, commanding respect with her timeless elegance. Velvet, silk, and satin are her fabrics of choice—plush, rich, and always refined. But don’t mistake her simplicity for sameness—she swaps the predictable black for champagne hues or jewel tones, allowing her quiet sophistication to speak volumes.
The Pantsuit Queen: No plus-one status here—her name is the one on the invite. A powerhouse who radiates confidence and sensuality, she’s always the sharp outlier in a room of maxi gowns. Channelling Le Smoking vibes, her tailored suit is a nod to YSL, solidifying her as a fashion force everyone notices but few dare to imitate.
The Light Catcher: Under the stars, she sparkles—literally. Sequins, embellishments, and all things glittering are her love language. Why blend in when you can blind with brilliance? She thrives on being the ultimate party spectacle, and dull fabrics are simply beneath her.
The Feather Boa: Oh, you’ll see her coming from a mile away—feathers flowing, drama in every step. She could take flight if she wished, but tonight, she’s grounded in this event. And yes, everyone wants to touch her textured maxi ensemble but look only—this level of chic comes at a cost.
The Bold: She struts in wearing a mini, fully aware that all eyes are on her. Stares? She lives for them. Her style isn’t about clinging to bodycon—it’s about structure, tailoring, and corset details that exude power. She’s a modern femme fatale, fearless and unapologetically daring.
