Guide
If you have broad shoulders or a shorter upper body, a plunging V-neckline creates the illusion of a more elongated torso and it narrows the shoulders. An A-Line style dress, like this one, is usually fitted to the hips and then flares to give the skirt volume, which can do wonders for your silhouette.
Stage & Screen
In the midst of the chaos going on back stage Magdalena managed to take a quick snap before making her grand entrance for the Miss Galaxy Pageant.
This deep-blue figure-hugging, off shoulder ruffle evening dress is perfect to show off those curves. The hem of this dress has whats called a ‘horsehair braid’ sewn into it, which is what makes the dress hold this shape when moving around. Perfect for the stage or just walking into a room! Teamed up with a fab pair of earrings this is most certainly an eye catcher.

Daria stood out from the crowd at the 2018 Golden Unicorn Awards and Russian Film Festival, adding a splash of colour to the party with this gorgeous green satin ball gown.
The full satin skirt pulls in at the waist to create a beautiful silhouette. The bodice is covered in tiny green glass beads, adding a touch of sparkle and magic.
Ladies of shorter stature sometimes worry about wearing ball gowns because of their height. We liked the deep V illusion panel at the front of this ball gown because it accentuates verticals and helps to create a beautifully proportioned ensemble. We have other dresses that pull off similar tricks in different ways, plus a bunch of tried and tested tips to boost your poise (and your confidence).
Daria fell in love with this gown the second she tried it on and you can see why, doesn’t she look stunning?
Party
Our wonderful client Victoria wore this allover sequin evening dress to celebrate Sir Cameron Mackintosh mother’s 100th birthday at Claridges. This dress has a low back but plenty of coverage in the front so you can move with confidence. It’s completely covered in sequins and has illusion side panels, this dress is sexy and sophisticated.
I heard that few of the guests commented that she was the best dressed there. Would love to get Ronnie to come for a fitting!
Awards
Set in the grounds of the Tower of London this year’s TJ Awards were held, where our latest lady Barbara was asked to be a judge. As all eyes would be on her, she wanted to go for something that was glamorous and fitted, but not too revealing.
This lace fishtail dress did just the trick, with a structured bodice and overlay of netted lace, and a slight train at the back for that little bit of extra oomph. This glam red lace evening dress keeps it feminine and suits her shape beautifully. Many ladies kept it classy wearing black on the night, but Barbara was overjoyed that she had chosen something different to stand out as a judge.
