Let's start with the types of events that one would consider wearing a ball gown to:
Dinner:
Most of the older women, and in fact perhaps most women would choose a fichu
of lace or net with the low body to combat the cold during the colder
months. Another style that is popular for the occasion of a dinner is a lace
canezou, which is actually a jacket that opens in the front and has a basque
over the low body.
The fabrics that are chosen for the dinner ball gowns are usually better,
heavier, and of brilliant colors. The trims of the dinner ball gowns may be
anything from lace to fringe. And to these formal dinners most of the
married women often throw in a fancy dinner caps to go with the ball gowns.
Evening Entertainment:
For more formal evening entertainment occasion such as the opera or formal
receptions, evening or formal ball gowns are usually worn. These formal ball
gowns are often very low. They are usually of heavier materials like velvet
or heavy silk. Though neckline style that are usually sported is the low
boat, square necks are also worn.
Balls:
For the people who have the intentions of dancing at balls, the lightness of
the ball gown is a very important consideration. However for the ladies who
intend to rather sit out and avoid the dance floor, the preferred dress
might be an evening ball gown that has described above.
