RUNWAY GODDESS Semi Formal Dress Code BLOG | August 2025
•Posted on August 23 2025

Semi-formal doesn’t have to mean one single look—it’s all about versatility. From delicate mesh that adds an edgy yet romantic twist, to elegant satins that bring a touch of sophistication, a dress can shift effortlessly depending on how you style it. Whether you’re heading to a cocktail party, a wedding reception, or a special dinner, these semi-formal picks prove that you can reinvent the vibe and make it uniquely yours.
VIANNA (SAGE)
Sophisticated and sleek, Vianna is a timeless take on semi-formal dressing. Crafted in a soft satin finish, its maxi length gives it elegance, while the asymmetrical high neckline adds a modern edge. The gold hardware on the shoulder elevates the look with a subtle hint of glamour, making it ideal for cocktail nights, formal dinners, or wedding receptions. Pair it with gold heels and statement earrings for a polished finish, or keep it simple with nude sandals and a sleek clutch.
ESTI (CHAMPANGE)
Romantic and refined, Esti is the perfect balance of elegance and charm. The sweetheart neckline and fitted bodice create a flattering silhouette, while the flared skirt brings graceful movement with every step. At the back, a twisted band and cutout detail add a playful twist to the classic satin finish. Style Esti with delicate pearl earrings and strappy nude heels for a soft, timeless look, or opt for bold gold jewelry and a statement clutch to elevate it for evening wear.
LACEY (RED)
Striking and confident, Lacey is a statement piece made for turning heads. Its strapless neckline and sleek silhouette highlight sophistication, while the twisted detail at the waist adds dimension and shape. The daring thigh-high slit brings just the right amount of drama, making it perfect for semi-formal nights where you want to stand out. Pair Lacey with strappy stilettos and a bold red lip for maximum impact, or soften the look with neutral heels and dainty jewelry.
RILEY (WINE)
Chic and textural, Riley is where modern design meets timeless elegance. Featuring a halter tie and soft cowl neckline, this dress flatters while feeling effortlessly stylish. The velvet floral pattern adds depth and sophistication, making it a standout semi-formal choice. Style Riley with delicate drop earrings and black heels for a refined finish, or add metallic accessories to give the look a contemporary edge.
