With the musical Strictly Ballroom having recently opened at the Princess of Wales Theatre in Toronto, the city’s trendsetters will no doubt be flocking to the theatre. Whether you are catching a show at home this season, or perhaps venturing to New York City, a chic ensemble for the evening is a must-have. From a stylish spin on the little black dress to a complementary metallic clutch, read on to discover Real Style’s guide to Spring 2017 theatre style.

1) Dress The Population Rita One-Shoulder Dress, $345: This demure and subtly sexy black lace number features a single shoulder and a sheer hem. The mid-length and flowing skirt are a contemporary spin on the classic LBD, while the lacy overlay makes it a fitting look for the evening hours.

2) 14K Yellow Gold Freshwater Pearl Necklace, $175: With the design of a one-shouldered frock, you hardly need a large statement necklace or bejewelled choker. However, a simple strand of elegant pearls can go a long way toward perfecting your outfit of the night. This freshwater pearl necklace is detailed with a 14 karat gold clasp for a ladylike touch.

3) Nina Originals Damsel Pumps in Silver Soft Nappa, $196: As black shoes paired with a black dress can look too austere, turn to gleaming metallic footwear instead. These pointed toe leather pumps help to illuminate your look, while the silver hue and three inch heels ensure that you’re ready to party once the show wraps.

4) Kate Landry Pearl & Stone Metal Mesh Frame Clutch, $210: As you head out the door, try picking up on the pearl and silver tones in your accessory statement. This shiny and satin-lined evening bag sparkles with its silvery exterior, rhinestone-adorned clasp and tiny pearl accents.
