For women, black tie usually calls for: A long evening gown or floor-length dress Luxe fabrics like satin, chiffon, velvet, or tulle Elegant touches such as embellishments, beading, or structured silhouettes Sophisticated accessories think heels, clutch bags, and statement jewellery While shorter dresses can occasionally be accepted if theyre particularly dressy, a full-length gown is the safest and most traditional option for a formal event
In that spirit, even if you dont usually prefer heels go for it now
