This beautiful two-piece outfit has tons of detail. The gold is majestic, and the prints of the fabric are prominent against the gold fabric’s texture. It pairs beautifully with the sheer top against the model’s skin. The delicate buttons and the v-neck pull this look together. It’s sexy, yet sophisticated all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Style takeaway<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Mimic this look with a full skirt and fitted, lightweight top. Gold and metallic details are on-trend right, too.<\/p>\n\n\n

This dress is breathtaking, with its gorgeous sheer cover and wide sleeves. The simple, feminine drape and open necklace look angelic. You could wear this piece as a wedding dress<\/a> or to a formal event by the shore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Style takeaway<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You don’t need lots of color or accessories to make a statement! Long, flowing layers of light fabric, especially in white, create a glow effect. Keep the sweet, wholesome appeal of this look in intact by pulling your hair into a loose bun and go minimalist on the makeup.<\/p>\n\n\n

The gorgeous center front pattern from the top of the neck the bottom of the dress really draws the eye and elongates the body. What stands out about this gown is the formality of it on the surface, paired with the more relaxed details of pockets and a shawl. Who couldn’t use pockets in their formal gown?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Style takeaway<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It will be tough to find another dress that has all the elements we love on this one. But if you like this look, go searching for a formal garment that blends a full skirt with gold details, plus some casual elements.<\/p>\n\n\n

Short and sheer<\/h3>\n\n\n

This dress is one of our favorites of the collection because of the robin egg blue, coupled with the gold ballet-inspired slippers<\/a> on the model’s feet. While this dress is sheer, it still has a wistful modesty about it \u2014 thanks to that wavy hem and the mid-length sleeves. The cinch at the waist adds definition and keeps this piece from being too floaty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Style takeaway<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Your choice of shoes with a dress like this is important to the overall look. Take a look at the lace piece below from Indiefit \u2014 now picture it ballet flats<\/a> versus tall, strappy sandals. The flats will give you that modest, wholesome look, and the heels \u2014 well that’d be a different entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n
