Bustiers, nap dresses, and more.
If your Valentine’s Day involves red wine, dark chocolate, and a fancy lil outfit, you have all the makings of a wonderful evening. And thankfully, the days of Zoom dates are in the rearview mirror, but that means you have the new task of narrowing down your ensemble for a perfect head-to-toe look.
Whether you’re going for a cozy, festive vibe for a relaxing night of face masks and Uber Eats, or are prepping for a romantic rooftop dinner with your significant other, you’ll need a quality ’fit: something kitschy, but not kiddie; saucy, but not tacky; and relaxed, but still put-together.

So to help put together your Valentine’s Day look with ease, I’ve gathered 15 options, ranging from comfy and understated to TikTok-worthy glamorous. Date or no date, you deserve a look that’ll make you feel all the love — self-love included.
These looks will hit the mark, featuring Barbie pink, ruffles and satin, mini dresses, and cozy cardigans. Keep scrolling for the best date outfit options this Valentine's Day.
