herve leger black bandage dress con closet essential Since Hervé Léger bandage dresses

And dont forget about length: while floor-grazing gowns bring the drama, a tailored midi or a chic mini can feel just as formal (and a lot more dance-floor friendly)

Sort of a reddish, I-just-bit-my-lips color that's bright enough to make an impact but good for even those with fair skin and hair: One of my hands-down fav looks of the moment is the white dress w/ black tights combo

The illusion sleeves and bodice of the black wedding dress are designed with lace applique that contours the figure giving off an ethereal vibe

This design works well for important events or evening receptions where maintaining a polished look for a long duration is necessary
