Red hot for homecoming, sweet-16 parties, and other semi-formal events, this short red sequin cocktail dress has a sweetheart bodice that wraps around to the low back, while elasticized banded puff sleeves drape romantically over the upper arms
It is great at this time of year when greens are on the bitter and robust side
In the 18th century, formal dress started as the mantua, but later developed into the elaborate sack-back gown
La Femme also designs gowns that are simple and elegant, featuring luxurious ombre dyed fabrics and perfectly ruched bodices
Whether its dressing up for a special dinner at home or to go to a candlelight service, shopping for Christmas presents, snuggling by the fire and watching Christmas movies, building a snowman and then warming up with cups of sweet hot cocoa with marshmallows, or reading The Night Before Christmas before everyone falls asleep on Christmas Eve
The classic shape and cool mint shade stands the test of time and Whistles has certainly taken note
