Say Yes To The Classic A-Line Dress
The *one* that is fitted to your waist and then flares out steadily to the hem is a classic a-line dress that suits almost all body types. The secret to the power of a-line formal evening gowns is their ability to minimize the midsection.
Yes, you got it right! A-line silhouette plays down hips and thighs and draws attention to your best features. For a curvy lady, it is a way to create an illusion of a slimmer look.
The good news is that you can wear a-line outfits repeatedly without getting bored, as they come in myriads of styles. At present, long a-line gowns with cutouts and slits are on the top of the fashion chart.

When In Doubt, Wear Black
A black is a BFF of many fashionistas, and there are plenty of reasons behind that. First, the color “black” creates the optical illusion of a block silhouette that draws attention to your figure line instead of your volume.
Second, black is sheerly classy. Wearing a trending black dress to a formal occasion can help you channelize your regal side and feel confident.
For an extra hint of elegance to your statement, try the avant-garde jersey formal evening gowns in black shade. Of course, you can experiment with the details or choose a monochrome jersey formal dress, depending on the look you want to create.
