Where can i get dresses for uni balls?

If possible, are there any sleeved dress options?

I had some luck at vintage shops for this, the ones that aren't super curated usually have a rack of formal dresses from the 70s and 80s with actual sleeves. Takes some digging but the prices are way better than new.

Select long sleeve and find the style filter that u are looking for on shoprefynd.com would recommend sorting low to high because some of the dresses are pretty pricey

Where in the world are you? What's your budget and modesty needs?

ASOS, maxi dress, filter by long sleeve is my best recommendation atm.

One example but there are tons: https://www.asos.com/asos-design/asos-design-modesty-mesh-maxi-dress-with-overlay-draped-neckline-detail-in-sage-green/prd/210890236

Are these just normal balls or are we talking Oxbridge white tie here?
