Ballgown Silhouette

Women's dresses designed for formal occasions or social functions are often called formal gowns, evening gowns or ball gowns. A Ball Gown silhouette is a formal floor length dress with a fitted bodice and a full-length voluminous skirt that dramatically flares out from the waist. It is characterized by elegant and glamorous style and is often made from luxurious fabrics like lace, tulle pr satin and also with embellishments like beads. The fullness of the skirt is created by layers of fabrics, ruffles, petticoats or in some cases structural additions like hoops (circular band of metal, wood or other similar material) or horsehair trim (stiff netting often made of polyester). The ball gowns conceal the lower portion of the body and hips and is flattering for most body types.
