Love it or hate it, Valentine's Day is coming!

You could be dating, single and ready to mingle or even in a situationship, but this is one day you want to look your best.

While the Internet is abuzz with V-Day outfits for everyone, you might want specialised help to ensure your style is just right.

Rediff.com's Anita Aikara got in touch with two designers to find out how you can ace the latest trends on February 14.

Meghna Goyal of Summer Somewhere feels "pastel pinks and romantic prints" will rule V-Day this year.

"Try choosing bold statement silhouettes and keep your accessories minimal," she advises.

And, as minimal dressing is in, one can also expect to see a lot of interesting outfits in black, she says.

For Pallavi Singhee of Verb, Valentine's Day fashion is about embracing a spectrum of romantic hues beyond the traditional red.

On her list are "soft pastels like blush pink, citrus and lavender that have a delicate charm and symbolise tenderness and affection.

"Rich jewel tones such as emerald green or sapphire blue are sophisticated and ideal for an evening celebration."

Fans of metallics can try out outfits in gold or silver to add a touch of glamour, she suggests.

"Additionally, earthy tones like terracotta or deep burgundy that evoke warmth and intimacy are ideal for cozy date nights," says Pallavi. "Ultimately, diverse colour palettes allow women to express their unique style while radiating love and elegance."

The designer would like "adventurous souls looking to make a bold statement to consider avant-garde ensembles that push the boundaries of traditional fashion.

"Opt for edgy silhouettes like asymmetrical hemlines, cut-out dresses, sheer dresses over layers or micro mini school-girl skirts," she says. "Experiment with geo prints or oversized florals to express gaiety and warmth."

If you want to stick to the basics, she advises "opting for a sophisticated little black dress that flatters your figure.

"Incorporate romantic elements such as lace detailing, subtle ruffles or delicate floral prints to add a touch of romance without being overly flashy."

For the risk takers, Meghna suggests "mixing red and black by colour blocking or mixing patterns like cute florals with edgier patterns to make an impression.

"You can't go wrong with a satin cherry red dress," she adds. "It's very on-trend."

For the old-school, ever cheesy lover, she recommends "a mini dress with lace detailing or floral prints".

Pallavi's tips to nail Valentine's Day dressing include:

1. Channelling opulent glamour and confidence.

2. Opting for a statement-making outfit with bold colours that exude drama and flair.

3. Embracing figure-flattering silhouettes that accentuate your curves. Don't shy away from cut-out dresses or high slits for a touch of allure.

Scroll down to take a look at some of the designers' creations that are perfect for V-Day.
