Dress Me For The Ball.

I think you will just have to go out and try a few dresses on to get the right colour/fit/style. You will know the right one when you put it on and go wow. It will just jump out at you. As for colours it depends on your complexion, hair, etc. I wouldnt wear white because it too bride/ deb looking but maybe you will find something that you never thought you would wear. There are some really beautiful colours around now. It just reminds me, when I got married for the second time I wore a skirt, top and jacket suit. It was beautiful and so comfortable and me. You wont believe that I wore black and I think I shocked some people but I only liked black and white and I wasnt wearing white again. A few years ago I attended a charity ball too and I wore it again and felt really comfortable. From memory I think thats what most ladies wore. Nobody wore actual ball gowns. Good luck with it and dont forget to post a pic for us on the OOTD page when you find your outifit.

If u want to go bold go red…red is lovely. otherwise try stuff on and just see how it fits and looks get the hottest one 🙂

Hi Girls – Thanks for the Advice and yes I’m Going to wear the floor length Satin Evening Dress with Jacket. The Only thing now is to pick which colour ?? I’m a White & Pink Girl But I wore White to the Debs , a Soft Pink One would be nice or May be I should Be going for a Shade of Blue , or Red or another Pastel Colour What do you Girls Think. ?! P.S – Hk_Candy Thats is a Great Idea but I’m like You to chicken to start one – I’ll have a look through my Photos and see what I can Find – FemGirl xx.

I agree with the other girls about the long satin dress, sounds smart.

Hk_Candy – that’s a good idea actually, I think it would be fun 🙂

we should totally start a thread showing formal pictures, deb pictures or any ball and associates partys!! Im too chicken to start one though 🙁 !!

I went to acharity ball a few years back and can’t remember anyone being in big full skirts – they were mostly in long dresses though there were some that were shorter. I wore one that was just below my knees. I was worried I’d be under dressed but i actually got a few compliments froms trangers which was nice. I think the long flowing dress would be much more practical – the big skirt might get in the way.

I also think the floor length satin evening dress with a jacket sounds really nice. I wouldnt overdo it. You can keep it simple and still look really nice. Good luck with it.

I think personally simple is best:) I remember for my formal I had a long plunging neckline black gown with a statement necklance and curled my hair a simple statement ring and gold glitter gel nails I was complimented quite a fair bit!!

depending on what shape you have its great to research what dresses suit what body types

good luck and have fun!! xx

I would personally go the Floor Length Satin Evening Dress with Jacket:)
