While you shop, keep in mind other occasions where you can re-wear these dresses such as bridal showers, birthday dinners or holiday parties.

For example, dress up Tuckernuck's black velvet maxi dress with heels and rhinestone earrings for a wedding calling for formal attire. Wear the same dress with burgundy heels, a blazer over your shoulders and a red hair bow accessory for a cute holiday look. There's also Significant Other's Demi Backless Long-Sleeve Column Gown, a more formal option available in multiple colors that you can wear as a guest or as a bridesmaid.
