Gennifer Birnbach Are you in search of the perfect outfit for that upcoming special event? Look no further than Alembika’s After Dark collection — a modern take on evening wear with rich textures, sculptural shapes, and expressive prints.
Designed for comfort without compromising on drama, these elevated dresses and separates drape and flatter in all the right places. From soft metallics to romantic florals to pops of red, this edit is made for dressy autumn and winter moments.
Get ready for bar and bat mitzvahs, weddings, galas, reunions, special date nights or any other reason to dress to impress.
Classic Little Black Dress
The Serenade Cocoon Dress (left) is a stretchy jersey knit that offers smooth comfort and subtle support, while plush velvet insets add dimension. Thoughtful piecing through the skirt creates visual movement, and set-in sleeves shape the upper bodice. With its mock neck and practical side pockets, this is a quietly sophisticated wardrobe staple for seasonal transitions.
Shop After Dark: Autumn Evenings for even more “Rose” styles.
If you’re prefer a sleek silhouette that flatters your figure you may like our slinky matte stretch jersey Essential Column Dress, Black. This statuesque maxi dress is sure to turn heads, from the sleek funnel neckline to the side slit at the hem. This dress hugs the boxy to fit and flatter in all the right places. *Size up for a looser fit.
Wedding Guest Dresses
Our recommendation? The shimmering gold Suzanne Maxi Dress brings playful structure to a relaxed fit. Cut from a crinkled metallic fabric, it flows from a gathered babydoll waist into a generous skirt. Tailored details include button cuffs and a fold over collar, balanced by soft, swingy volume. This dress also comes in silver and is true to size.
Another great wedding guest dress choice is the Luxardo Muumuu Dress, Galaxy. This oversized pullover dress has a wide neck, three-quarter length dolman sleeves, and a rounded hem for drape and shape that falls just at the knee. Made in a sheer chiffon woven with raw hem patch detailing, it has an effortlessly draped and boxy silhouette, and comes with a slip dress. With its elegant and timeless design, this outfit will suit any wedding theme or venue. *Select a size down if you’d prefer a tighter fit.
Bar Mitzvah & Bat Mitzvah Guest Outfits
Consider the Eloise Jacket. It’s loose from shoulders to hem and intentionally oversized so you can wear over a layer to warm up or cool down throughout the day or night .
Designed for attitude, not just fit, they are a state of mind. When in doubt, we recommend sizing down.
The jacket can be paired with any pants from the After Dark: Autumn Evening collection such as the Hematite Wide Leg Pants seen here.
Alembika’s many After Dark collections offers a range of stylish and sophisticated options for guests. From classic dresses to chic separates, you’ll find the perfect outfit to celebrate this special occasion in style.
A popular choice is our Urban Maxima Crew Cocoon Dress seen here. This casual cocoon dress is made in a soft and stretchy jersey knit in the arms and bust, then flares out into crisp memory fabric balloon skirting. The pullover style with long sleeves and in-seam side pockets falls just below the knees. This silhouette is a great choice for creating an architectural, edgy outfit, or if you just want to accentuate your shape.
Christening Guest Attire
Alembika offers a selection of elegant dresses and modern options to suit your style.
Terry Pieced Maxi Skirt is a comfortable and chic style that can be paired with any top from our Essentials collection as well as a vest or jacket such as the Urban Capulet Crop Jacket seen here in Honey (also in Khaki).
Signature details define this Laceleaf Wonderful Dress including a softly structured silhouette, draped front pocket, and hem gathered with subtle elastic. The silky woven fabric enhances the fluidity while shell buttons and collar detailing provide subtle refinement. Runs true to size.
