Ah, the elusive perfect date-night outfit. What really is the perfect thing to wear that will have you leaving the house feeling confident and your very best self? Honestly, it depends on your personal style and what you feel comfortable wearing. But if you want some surefire ways to make an entrance on any date, might I suggest taking a look at some celebrity-approved date-night looks that recently caught this editor’s eye? I’m always looking for fresh ideas myself, so I can’t resist the chance to share them.
From Kendall Jenner’s low-cut blazer and trousers to Rihanna’s shiny gold minidress to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s perfect modern-meets-minimal all-black look, there are plenty of celebrity date-night outfits to look to for inspiration. Ahead, see eight celebrity date outfit ideas, and shop my edit of pieces to re-create the looks for yourself.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley can do no wrong in my book, and this outfit is one I'm repeating ASAP.
Rihanna really delivers in this gold frothy dress—proof that metallics are always a good idea for a date night.
A wrap silhouette is always a great standby for a night out. Make like Hailey Baldwin, and pair yours with tall leather boots.
Headed to a casual date? Bella Hadid's cool day-to-night outfit in tones of pink and white is the perfect solution.
Jacquemus is an excellent option for a date—something Kendall is clearly tuned into. The brand's interesting blazer cuts are a chic place to start.
An LBD is good, but a cool twist on an LDB feels super modern. Look for a dress with cutouts like Priyanka Chopra.
No one does easy, sophisticated elegance quite like Victoria Beckham. Her leopard dress–and-mule look is exactly what I'd wear for a polished date outfit.
If you want something that's a little extra, look no further than this head-to-toe silver date-night look from Gigi Hadid.
Next, see the 13 fashion brands I wear on repeat.
