Wondering what should a 50-year-old wear to a nightclub or night out?
Well, look no further ladies!
First thing first, can we just pull ourselves together and realize that 50 years old is not that old at all?
Forget that limiting mindset as it only exists in our brains!
You can literally look hot and wear whatever you want at any age.
Playing dress-up begins at age five and never truly ends.
That said, if you gravitate towards deliciously fun yet sophisticated for a Friday night – I got you.
Ahead, I’ve gathered 11 elements and 25 night-out outfit ideas along with some styling tips, stay tuned!
1. Winter night clubbing gem: Velvet
When the days are cold out, it’s time to dig out your velvet dress sis.
Not only does velvet capture the essence of the winter season, but the unique buttery texture just blends the casual stylish look with a dash of elegance.
Even with classic black pumps and clutch, you just instantly look night-out ready without trying too hard.
Embrace your femininity and let it shine.
2. Rock that Animal prints
Do you know who rocks the animal prints the best way?
I’d say women with stories.
If you want to make a statement for a clubbing night, a sassy yet sophisticated leopard print dress can never go wrong.
A rule of thumb for styling animal prints is to keep things sleek.
Tone the look down with a black biker jacket just works wonders.
As far as I’m concerned, leopard is a neutral.

If an all-over leopard print dress is too much for you, test the water with an animal print blouse first!
When in doubt, add a black belt to highlight your silhouette and it helps to improve the body proportion visually as well!
As a 5″3 girl, I love this combo.
The truth is, there’s not enough fashion content tailored to women over 40.
If you find the styling tips useful and you are a lady over 30, please kindly pin 📌 some of the looks so more women in this age range can come across this content.
Show the world that fashion content is for all ages! – Thanks love, that means A LOT ❤️
3. The classic DVF wrap dress
When it comes to the failproof dress for clubbing, I’m gonna vote wrap dress.
With a tie waist that cinches on the slimmest portion of the torso, the wrap dress drapes your body in the most perfect way and achieves an extra-slimming effect.
The best part?
It looks body-hugging and tight but unlike the pencil dress and bodycon dress, actually you have no problem dancing in them!
Any DVF dress fans here?
Diane von Fürstenberg has always been my inspiration and her life philosophy ” The biggest life secret is to enjoy being yourself” is truly empowering.
If you want a fun creative print wrap dress, definitely check out the DVF brand!
“SIMPLICITY AND SEXINESS, THAT’S WHAT PEOPLE WANT. AT A PRICE THAT’S NOT OUTRAGEOUS.”

This shirt dress is on my wish list these days – obsessed.
4. Long shirt dress x leather leggings
If you never think of this combo, well, try it out!
Seriously, you can look good at any age – this look is just super chic and forgiving.
By matching the color of the shirt and shoes in the same hue, it unites and elongates the figure and helps you appear to be taller and slimmer visually!
5. Party outfit: Sheer black shirt
Do you want a sassy mama look for night clubbing?
Throw on a sheer black shirt sis.
Whether you team it with a lace bralette or a cami top underneath, it just looks irresistibly on trend without trying too hard.
Sheer shirts are not that hard and overwhelming to carry.
Depending on your style, you can also choose the shirt with the right opacity levels for your ideal dose of sassiness.
6. Stay simple chic in Jeans
When we are in our 40s and 50s, that’s one thing for sure – we prioritize comfort.
Who said you have to look a certain way for nightclubbing?
If you feel like wearing a nice pair of jeans tonight – go rock it with full confidence!
If you want to slightly glam things up, consider wearing a lace bustier top.
To look 10/10, those hoop earrings and bold red lips are essential.
For an arm-forgiving look, check out my LTK post down below – hope that top is still in stock!
7. Slip dress for a night out over 50
Of course, a womanly satin or silk dress is another perfect option for ladies over 50.
More often than not, a sophisticated 45-year-old lady will rock a satin slip dress better than an innocent and sweet 16.
Slip dresses present effortless chic to the fullest.
Just because we have acne tummy rolls, and chaffing thighs doesn’t mean we need fixed. Period.

8. Sequin top for nightclubbing
When it comes to night-out fashion, sequin tops are always taking a major moment.
Admit it, once in a while we do want to feel like a disco ball.
I love how this lady half-tuck the sequin top!
Not only does this hack help camouflage the midsection, but it also draws eyes vertically and promotes a taller figure!
An off-shoulder sequin look also shares the same effect!
Plus, showcasing the shoulder line is always a good idea.
As for the ladies who take a minimalist approach, go for the solid black top with a sequin sleeve.
Together with the faux leather pants, this is giving “I’ve got a style & I know it”.
9. Tummy forgiving choice: Peplum dress
If you want to look the best, a peplum dress is your gem.
Featuring the extra stripe of fabrics gathered around the waist, it just camouflages the belly perfectly and instead, fakes an hourglass illusion for you!
This dress is ridiculously cheap – check that out if you are on a budget.
10. Stay chic in a jumpsuit
Not a dress person? Stay slay in the jumpsuit.
This is literally your power suit, especially with those sunnies on.
It took me 50 years to look this good.
Cheers!
When the jumpsuit is too long, keep calm and pair it with the high platform shoes.
It’s giving fashionista vibes.
11. Night out look with a scarf
Last but not least, consider glam your look up with a scarf – it just boosts the sophistication and aesthetic tenfold.
When I wear a silk scarf I never feel so definitely like a womanm a beautiful woman.
Audrey Hepburn
And these days, I’m obsessed with this look below.
Transform your satin scarf to a tube top and layer it up with the button-down just looks so on-trend.
Well, I guess now I have an idea of what should I wear for the coming Friday night with my girlfriends.
