Black Tie Wedding | Adrianna Papell Gown

This look is one of those looks that I originally selected for a black tie or white tie wedding, but I soon realized that it would also be appropriate for a mother-of the-bride or groom, and could be a choice for bridesmaids, as well if you're having a formal evening wedding.

I'm usually cautious about sequins at a wedding because the human disco ball effect can take away from the bride; but, by the same token, we're seeing sequins on everything these days -- even sweatshirts -- and they are too fun not to wear. Keep this amount of glitter limited to events after 6 pm, and only opt for a full length column of sequins like this for the most formal events. If you have any doubt, check with the bride or other guest to be sure you're not going to be too much of a sparkler. Some brides appreciate and even expect full glamour from their guests, so if you're invited to one of those occasions you'll be welcomed in this! Once you have the level of formality confirmed and your glittery gown approved, then feel free to shine on in this gorgeous Adrianna Papell with luxe velvet and rose gold accessories.
