The Movie Star
Fancy a red carpet-worthy train? Me too. Which is why I had to include this stunning gown from Temperley London. This blush mesh dress sparkles with metallic, beaded, and floral accents. The bead embellished shell cascades into a short train, for a movie star finish. A charmeuse sash adds further glamour to this evening gown while also accentuating the waist for a flattering shape.

The Golden Diva
Dripping in glittering gold sequins, this Basix gown is the ultimate choice for the decadent diva.
