High Low Ball Gown for Wedding or Special Event

Hi Low Ball Gown

 Dress: High Low Taffeta Ball Gown with Beaded Illusion Bodice | Earrings: flying colors pavé drop earrings by kate spade new york | Bracelet:  Crystal Halo Bracelet by Nadri | Lipstick: Couture Color Rouge Dior Lipstick  | Clutch :  Confetti Glitter Minaudière | Shoes:  Frisk Embellished Sandal by Pelle Moda | Nail Polish: Iconic Color Nail Polish

Black Taffeta Evening Hi Low Ball Gown

If you are seeking a style for a winter ball, a black tie winter wedding, or a formal holiday party, a high-low ball gown may be just the look! The shorter hem in the front makes dancing a breeze, while the longer hem in the back makes for a sweeping train, and an overall formal style! A full-ball gown skirt will never go out of style for formal events, but the multi-level hem makes the look a little more modern. The silhouette, rich fabric, and bit of embellishment makes this gown a must-have for your next formal invitation.

Formal High-Low Hem Gown for Winter Events

This black taffeta high-low ball gown is embellished with a silver beaded overlay, which keeps it formal but not somber. The silver beading also makes it pair perfectly with sparkling silver pave accessories! The pave earrings, bejeweled sandals, and crystal bracelet all pick up on the embellished bodice and waistline. A classic deep burgundy red lip and red nails will add even more to this dramatic, but classic gown! It's by Adrianna Papell, a designer we love to recommend for formal evening gowns!

We love this formal ball gown look for formal wedding guests, party-goers, or mothers-of-the-bride or mothers-of-the-groom. Where would you wear this ball gown?
