THERE IS SOMETHING OPULENT AND ROMANTIC about dark ball gowns and dresses. Perhaps it’s the element of mysteriousness that comes with a woman who feels confident enough to wear a black chiffon gown and let her natural beauty shine through. Maybe it’s the beauty of the intricate embroidery when seen on a transparent organza fabric. Regardless, the spellbinding allure of a a shimmering gown is undeniable. Long black gowns are best worn with a chignon or delicate Veronica Lake waves, and of course…glistening diamonds. —Victoria
