Have you ever wanted to go to the opera but didn’t know what to dress in? Today, I’m going to share with you an easy guide on how to dress for the opera so that you can become the center of attention!
You may also feel that wearing ordinary clothes to an event like the opera would be inappropriate, but you are unsure of how to create a stylish and elegant look. You can easily achieve the opera look if you know a few key points.
First, avoid wearing jeans. Jeans are versatile and comfortable, but they look too casual for formal occasions like the opera. Choose a pair or elegant trousers or well-fitted trousers instead.
If you’re not sure which color to choose, the best option is black. Black is not only a color that makes you appear thinner, but also easy to match with accessories. Add a striking necklace, or earrings to your overall look.
Both a well-tailored dress or a suit are good choices. The dress length should not be too long or too short. A cocktail dress that is knee-length is a good choice.

Wear a fur cape, shawl or cardigan to keep warm in the theatre. This will keep your warm and give you a layering effect.
Don’t forget your hair and makeup should match your overall look. If you choose a simple style, pair it up with a low ponytail, light makeup and bright lipstick.
Opera dressing is all about elegance and decency. By paying attention to the details and carefully choosing your clothes, you can show off your unique charm as you enjoy art.
Avoid wearing jeans to the opera. You can create an elegant look by wearing black and matching it with skirts, fitted trousers and the right accessories.
These tips should help you to be the most eye-catching person on your next opera trip!
