  1. evening dress

    An evening dress, also known as a formal dress, is a long flowing gown typically worn by women for a formal event or social gathering that takes place in the evening or night. These dresses are often made from high-quality fabrics such as silk, satin, velvet or chiffon, and may be adorned with details such as beads, sequins or lace. They can be of varying lengths, necklines or sleeve styles, but overall the formality of the dress tends to coincide with the formality of the event. Typically, the more formal the event, the more elaborate the dress.
