10 Gorgeous Dresses For Your Next Formal Dance

Formal dances are tricky, a girls dress becomes more than just a fashion statement, it is a reflection of you. So how do you present yourself fin the best way possible while still looking gorgeous and sexy. I think I have found 10 perfect dresses that will flatter your body and your personality showing you to be a gorgeous person inside and out. 

All of these dresses also allow for your best dance moves to be performed flawlessly, whether that is a good thing or not depends on how you dance…

1. Halter Neck

These are one of the most flattering neck lines that you can wear so it will make for a gorgeous dress at your next formal dance. The collar works as a necklace also allowing you to save money trying to find jewellery to go with the outfit, a win-win situation I think. 

Show off your collar bones with a beautiful dress like this and look fabulous. The style and colour is slimming and cute, but you can get more sparkly or outrageous designs if you want to reflect a more daring personality.

2. Off the Shoulder

A classic and vintage style, having a dress off your shoulder is just pure elegance and grace. It also makes your collar bones your main feature so you can decorate them with a big statement necklace or leave them to talk for themselves. 

It is also a great dress if you don’t like anything hugging your figure too much. The clinched waist line that floats out is such a flattering shaping style that I would wear this style constantly if I could but unfortunately jeans are needed are on the cold days.

3. Crop Top

Crop tops are loved by all, you can’t avoid them whenever you step outside the house so why not incorporate it in to your dress. A beaded crop top matched with a gorgeous flowing skirt is something different to your average dress but still one that looks great.

What is great about this style is that you can get a short skirt or a long skirt depending on your preference; or you can style it with trousers if you really want to! And the best part, you can wear them again, the top can be styled for an evening out in the future. You aren’t just wearing it on a one off.

4. Lady In Red

The lady in red will always catch everyones eye, so make a statement on your entrance to the dance and stun everyone. Be bold! 

A simple dress like can also be styled up with some killer jewellery and heels to make yourself feel a million dollars.

5. Sparkles to Shine

Diamonds are a girls best friends because we like to sparkle and shine, we are probably reincarnated magpies. And you’ll definitely be catching everyones eye with a sparkling dress like this. 

The long sleeves allow for a bit more warmth in this chillier season but the actual style of dress is flattering and elegant. Emphasising your waist and long legs you’ll be a knockout. 

Get the look:

6. Greek Goddess

I think this style of dress is the best because it encompasses a lot of the styles in the list in one. The style shows off your waist by having the ties wrap around you bringing it in, and the following skirt gives a beautiful silhouette. 

The spaghetti straps also show off your collar bones and shoulders in a flattering light, all you need is a sun kissed glow to bring out the golden pattern that is on the dress. 

So beautiful you’ll be giving Aphrodite a run for her money.

7. Satin

A classic style that flows effortlessly over your body. The draped bodice will make you look slimmer and beautiful as a big cleavage isn’t always a good thing. Leave some mystery behind the folding material and invest in some big earrings to decorate the simplicity of satin.

A simple up do will go well with a dress like this as well, but as from the model below you can see that hair let loose also works for such a style.

8. Ruffles

This is a very fun way of coming to your dance because it’s a dress you will want to be spinning around in all night. The material also makes it a rather light dress which means it is even better for dancing in, although maybe not the best for twerking in…

You could curl your hair to match the dress, or put it up in a simple up do with some loose curls falling out to complete the outfit. Even add a bracelet and some stunning earrings and you’ll wow the crowd.

9. Beaded Elegance

One of the darker dresses out of the 10 but one that will be turning all the heads. The gorgeous detailing that this has with the black beads is something different to most of the dresses you’ll be seeing at the dance. 

Dark on dark is not very often done, but my does it work. 

The calf length to the dress is also another great addition as it means you will look elegant while also getting to show off the amazing shoes that you pair it with. As well as doing a lot of twirls to get the skirt to float out… or that might just be me when I’m in a dress. 

Finally the straps on the dress mean that it has a gorgeous back to it, meaning that it basically doesn’t have a back allowing you to show off your shoulders and the sexy curve of your spine to its’ fullest. 

Get the look:

10. Slit

Lastly is the popular thigh split. Some of these dresses have already featured the leg split but have had something else going for it at the same time. But why not get a dress that is simple and just features the leg split?

It seems like it would be too simple but simplicity also means classy, and classy is the style you want at a formal dance. Just the right amount of skin is on show, but also just the right amount of sexiness. If you want you can bling up the dress with jewellery and some acrylic nails but the simplicity of the design is what makes it gorgeous.

So show off your moisturised legs and your heels and have a fabulous night.

There are your 10 dresses that will have the other guests in awe at how gorgeous you look. Stay classy and bad assy. Sexy but also innocent.
