For women, it typically means wearing a full-length evening gown or a formal cocktail dress
Yet, this expectation of discomfort in the modern day is simply obsolete
The V neck and open back design create a flattering silhouette, while the lace and beading add a touch of elegance
The halter neckline frames the dcolletage beautifully, while the column silhouette creates a refined, elongating effect that's particularly flattering on petite frames
