Flattering Silhouettes to Make an Entrance

If you’re looking for something with a little extra flair, our glitter and sequin cocktail styles add the perfect touch of shimmer—ideal for catching the light at sunset celebrations or evening parties.

Fresh & Elegant Spring Fabrics

For an effortlessly elevated touch, explore short satin dresses that offer a glossy, luxurious feel, perfect for spring weddings and cocktail hours. Lightweight chiffon or lace mini dresses bring a romantic and breezy vibe, while airy mesh styles add a trendy, modern edge. With a variety of necklines and sleeve styles, Windsor’s cocktail dresses ensure you'll look stunning at every event this season.

Is a short dress appropriate for a cocktail party?

Yes, short cocktail dresses can work for cocktail events, especially when styled with festive accessories. Pair them with bold heels and a statement coat to stay warm and stylish. Styles with a mini-length may be extra short so try silhouettes like a skater, asymmetrical, or a dress romper if you are concerned with length.
