Black Tie Attire

*Sponsored by Zappos.

We all get that event or wedding invitation that has black tie attire. Since formal outfits aren’t something most of us keep in our closet, what’s a girl to do? Here’s the perfect dress for your next black tie attire event.

Adrianna Papell is a brand that I’ve shared quite a few times here on Visions of Vogue. I love the fit and the quality of their products. They’re also curve-friendly which helps me a lot. Whether you’re looking for a good work dress or a black tie wedding dress, they’re a great option.

This floor length gown was my favorite because of the mesh illusion on the back. I’m such a sucker for a fun back detail! I also wanted to provide a few ideas for anyone who might have a black tie formal affair this summer. It’s wedding season so I know there must be a few of you! The dress is also double layered so it smooths out curves and isn’t see through at all. If you’re in between sizes, size down! There’s a little bit of stretch in the fabric!

Have you ever shopped for clothing on Zappos? I got this Adrianna Papell gown from them! I wasn’t surprised that you could find black tie attire options on Zappos. I’ve purchased a few pairs of new sandals from Zappos and my favorite pair of white jeans this spring. I love how fast the shipping is and it’s free. In this day and age, I get so annoyed when I have to pay for shipping! And then I have to expedite shipping because the basic options are so slow!

Do you have a black tie attire event this summer? Or a favorite formal wear brand? Have you worn Adrianna Papell?
