The ‘new look’
The 1947 “New Look” of Christian Dior consisted of ball and mid-calf length skirts, pointed busts and round shoulders. We recreated it by replacing round shoulders and pointed busts with sleeveless tops, but still maintaining that slightly small waist. These two pieces are surely within your budget.

LONG-SLEEVED deep-v neckline lace bodice with ball skirt, Xioti Chiu; necklace, Forever 21; earrings and clutch, SM Accessories; heels, Forever 21
Enough skin
Too much skin is not appropriate. Show just enough with a sweet keyhole neckline, or go for a brave deep-v neckline. A bib or collar necklace is perfect for a deep-v neckline.

French grandeur
Tulle is everlasting, and is widely used for formal occasions. A princess aura is exuded when one wears a tulle ball gown, especially with extravagant embroidery or appliqués. You can never go wrong with this look.
