black tie mandatory

aphrodite eat your heart out. there's nothing like a gorgeous silk dress to make a woman feel beautiful. and any man would be lucky to have a woman in this dress be his arm candy. where to begin? the perfect blush shade of rose? the expert pleating around the bust? the delicate yet extravagant beading around the bust? the sweeping train that commands presence? all combine to create an ethereal gown. many gowns tend to be too boring; it's usually just a long dress in a rich color and perhaps some draping detail here or there. this dress nixes the cliche factor by bringing attention to the chest in the pleating and beadwork. the wearer is forced to stand tall and let the dress show off her assets. whoever styled this model got it right with the simple diamond earrings and bracelet and the elegant bun hair-do. i only wish i had a reason to need to wear a gown like this. and, of course, to be able to afford it.
