Ballet Core Dresses From Day To NIght

Thought ballet core dresses were only for your daytime plans? Think again! With so many stunning after-dark looks, you’ll find it tricky to pick just one! For example, who could resist the gorgeous cotton & silk georgette frill dress by Blumarine? This outstanding floor-length evening dress boasts barely-there halter straps and off-shoulder detailing giving us all the leotard vibes. Meanwhile, the all-over ruffle detailing, floaty chiffon skirt, and perfect shade of pink will have you falling head over heels. So, style this dress with the perfect pair of designer evening sandals and prepare for all the compliments.

Meanwhile, the floral applique high-low gown by Mac Duggal is the ballet-core gown of our dreams. Firstly, it wows with a structured V-neck bodice and low V-back. Secondly, the dramatic high-low skirt with a ruffled tulle hem and all-over floral applique detailing will make for a truly scene-stealing entrance. Pair yours with metallic heels for a sleek finish and let your dress streal all focus at your next event.
