Formal Dresses for Military Balls

You've been invited to a military ball where service members are requested to wear military blues or ASU. If you are female and a service member (thank you!), you'll know what to wear. If your date is the service member, it's your chance to wear a formal dress. Here are three great dresses for an elegant evening that honors their service.

If tradition and the invitation requires a ball gown, then a strapless beaded gown from Mori Lee is a perfect fit. Layers of tulle and ruffles support the long skirt, creating a full silhouette and emphasizing a tiny waist. Colored beads radiate all over the sweetheart bodice, with darker beads concentrated near the waist, further emphasizing an hourglass shape. This ball gown is perfect for a fairytale princess, yet inspired by today's fashion trends.

This one shoulder gownboasts rucheing and beads to create a dramatic statement. Accordion pleats create a full skirt and a trim silhouette. Even with these great details, this beautiful gown costs less than $100! Beautiful and budget conscious, can you beat that?

How can you resist chiffon? I love the way layers combine in this flowing V neck gown. From the beaded waist band to the butterfly sleeves, romance and formality combine in a way that may be just the right fit for a military ball.

There's so many great gowns in the military ball dress section of the PromGirl web site... choosing just one will be difficult for sure! You and your escort will look fabulous at the reception line and after the colors are retired. We salute you!
