  • Things to Remember While Choosing Designer Evening Dresses

True to the name these dresses are only worn during evening and are not suited for day times. Designer evening dresses offer exquisite patterns and trends and are available in a range of materials like satin, silk, velvet, chiffon and georgette among others.

Another variety of the ball gown is the A-line dress, which has a bell-shaped bottom and a form fitting bodice and is less ornate than a ball gown.

Trumpet gown is another pretty evening dress which has broad pleats towards the bottom of the gown. The form fitting bodice ensures an elegant contour and enhances the natural curves of the female frames.

  • It's All in the Details: Making an Early 19Th Century Ball Gown by Hope Greenberg
    It's All in the Details: Making an early 19th Century Ball Gown By Hope Greenberg In 1775, the year of Jane Austen’s birth, women wore gowns with a fitted bodice, the waist at or below the natural waistline, and full skirts over a visible, often ornate, petticoat. They were made in a variety of heavy silks, cotton or wool. By the time she had reached her late teens the ornate gowns were being replaced by simple, lightweight, often sheer cotton or silk gowns that reflected the ideals of classicism. This guide provides images and details to consider when creating an early 19th century ballgown. The examples provide a general guide, not an exact historic timeline. Fashion is flexible: styles evolve and are adopted at a different pace depending on the wearer's age, location, and economic or social status. These examples focus on evening or ball gowns. Day dresses, walking dresses, and carriage dresses, while following the same basic silhouettes, have their own particular design details. Even evening gowns or opera gowns can usually be distinguished from ball gowns which, after all, must be designed for dancing! By focusing on the details we can see both the evolution of fashion for this period and how best to re-create it. What is the cut of the bodice, the sleeve length, or the height of the bustline? How full is the skirt, and where is that fullness? What colors are used? What type of fabric? Is there trim? If so, how much, what kind, and where is it placed? Based on the shape of the gown, what can we tell about the foundation garments? Paying attention to all these details will help you create a gown that is historically informed as well as beautiful.
