black mesh dress long Baltic Born Womens Darya Midi | balancing coverage with allure Long Sleeve Mesh Panel Detail

Perfect for any formal event, this strapless dress will make you stand out from the crowd

Vertical pleats on the skirt, vertical stitching on the bodice, and a long line of buttons on the back will create a flattering silhouette and make you look taller

Practice tying it a few days before the event, as it takes some getting used to

A column flatters a tall frame, whereas a draped goddess line forgives a fuller midsection that a tight fishtail would expose

I do not wear a belt or pocket square, which probably helps with the icy minimalism of the look, which again contrasts with the (usually) bright, sunny weather when I wear it

Accessories: Add a feather headband, long pearls, and a cigarette holder for that classic flapper look
