Bring attention to your best asset — your back! We’re beyond obsessed with the rear-facing side of this otherwise understated selection. The glittering Swarovski crystals all come together in a string of beading that plunges down the back for an effect that promises to turn heads.
If you adore sweet accents on your gown, consider this one. It comes with subtle enhancements like lace motifs, illusion straps, and a jewel neckline to make a straightforward silhouette feel like something extraordinary.
Cue the Canon in D! This elegant Sottero & Midgley gown is ready to make its debut down the aisle. With modern elements, like crystal-lined side cutouts and a panel train, it warrants a wear by any fashionista or statement-maker.
Considering a dress with sleeves? Allow us to introduce to you another gem that may have you rethinking that. This crepe sheath has a jewel embossed back with tasteful cutouts to deliver the drama you want, but with retro cap sleeves to give you the coverage you crave. It’s the best of the best!
There’s just something about a chiffon skirt that’s lovely, but ordinary. Pair it with a bodice that’s covered in crystals and beading and now you’re talking! Hello, minimalist meets all-out glam.
If you’ve got a taste for traditional trains, this lacey ensemble is a terrific pick. It all starts with that dramatic deep V that flows down into a silky lace-accented trail that, combined, makes for one wow-worthy gown.
