I’d like to think I have many shopping hacks up my sleeve, but faking an expensive-looking party look is one of my best-kept secrets. Knowing what to look for in terms of materials and silhouettes is one thing, but in terms of brands, there is one I have been gatekeeping until this very moment. The brand I always turn to for those designer-looking dresses is Norma Kamali. No, this brand is not under the radar by any means, but it’s one that people seem to be surprised to hear me gush about when they ask for recommendations for a cocktail, black tie, or party dress.
The price points are extremely reasonable with my favorite styles often ringing in at around $175. The dresses are timeless, comfortable (seriously, so comfortable), and always look triple the price. Would I like to splurge on a Versace dress for some of my upcoming holiday events? Of course. But sadly that is not in the budget for me at this time in my life and luckily, Norma Kamali dresses give me the same designer look and feel for a much more approachable price point. Below, I rounded up 18 of my favorite Norma Kamali dresses for you to shop here featuring a variety of colors and styles that are perfect for all your party dressing needs and beyond.
