All women have adored and had a fling with the high-class, glamorous red carpet gown at some stage in their life. Whether we have shed a tear over Cinderella’s fairytale ball gown or Carrie Bradshaw’s perfect Vivienne Westwood wedding frock, women have admired the style the glamour gown can bring.

Red-carpet worthy gowns can only be found with the utmost patience, and found for that perfect event.

But women are now choosing to purchase the sophisticated dress, not just for that high-class event, but for the chance to feel beautiful. Women are now choosing the sheik gown to dress up and feel like a star. Lucky it comes at a time where fashion is at its peak for romance and glamour.

The stylish, red-carpet dress has made waves at international runways Bottega Veneta and Ralph Lauren, and the style has flowed on to our shores.

Long-length, beautiful draped, billowy and embellished dresses were a hit on overseas catwalks and have brought the glamour gown back into the spotlight.

This stunning dress never goes out of style, but you need to find the gown that will highlight your most valuable assets. Find your strengths and play the dress to them.

Strapless dresses have always drawn eyes from across the room and are always an elegant and enduring gown. But one-shoulder glamour gowns have been worn on runways and special events worldwide, and are beginning to also add that stunning style.

Both of these style gowns sparkle with the right jewels and shoes. But if the dress is a total knockout, ensure the accessories are kept to a minium, leaving all focus on the sheik, stylish gown. Simple colour jewels will add to any glamourous frock, retaining attention on the cut, colour and overall red-carpet dress design.

Collette Dinnigan is renowned for her sophisticated feminine style, and her beaded glamour dresses should be added to any women’s wardrobe collection. Akira also has uniquely draped gowns, whilst Aurelio Costarella will have a ‘wow’ garment to truly inspire your stylish side.
