Hurrah! Summer party time is here!


Madison James dresses sail into the season with inspiring options for the special occasions on your summer calendar. Constructed with couture details, these semi formal frocks touch on this season's trends but will still look on target next year.

Whether it's a semi formal party, dance or wedding reception, the collection of cocktail dresses is simply beautiful. Here's my
Five Favorite Party Dresses from Madison James



Fit and flare flows powerfully inthis Madison Jamesbeaded chiffon party dress. Beaded halter straps angle down the ruched bodice and around the back. A careful cut makes a flattering silhouette, and the fishline hem adds definition to the airy bias skirt. I think this party dress is darling!

Beads and sheer inserts make this open back cocktail dress perfect for office cocktail parties and private special occasions. Great details like sewn in bra cups and the long keyhole opening down the back mean you can pull off this provocative style in confidence. This Madison James dress personifies the modern woman. I've pictured the purple color way (color of royalty!) but the black is beautiful, too.
Capturing the essence of firework sparks drifting down in the sky, Madison James embellishes tulle on this
strapless beaded dress. This classic cocktail dress style offers loads of styling opportunities and will surely be a favorite party dress beyond summer 2015.

For hundreds of years, the paisley motif signifies life and eternity. What an auspicious choice as the feature of this Madison James strapless dress. Black sequins embroidered on tulle over a taupe lining give a fashion forward interpretation to this motif, enlarged to cover the entire dress.

Love retro looks? This black and white baby doll dress rocks vintage style with modern touches like angled cut outs in crisp black and white. The satin shimmers in the flared skirt and fitted bodice, all capped with a beaded shoulder piece. This Madison James semi formal dress balances dainty with daring beautifully.
