statement red dress Cupshe Make a Mini - Red shoulder maxi dress perfect for weddings Red Strapless High Slit Dress

If you are invited to a Black-Tie Optional event, you might consider renting a tuxedo in order to wear a conventional Black-Tie ensemble

Embellishment: Beading, Pleats, Side Panel, Slit

The keyhole neckline and high slit create a sleek, flattering look, while the shimmering chain shoulder details add a bold, glamorous touch

If you already have a darker skin tone you have a head start just make sure that your back is well moisturised in the run-up to the wedding (a fabulous job to give your groom although you might not want to tell him why hes doing it!) If youve chosen a backless gown, finish the look by making statements to the rear: choose a hairstyle with an intricate plait or roll at the back, and pick a pin, comb or flower that complements the dress to wear at the back of your hair
