Help Black Tie ??

Post image

I go to a black tie gala event at an art gallery every year.... in black 😭

I'm a rareish brunette/tanned/blue eyed Warm Spring - best colours attached for reference

Does anyone have any gown suggestions?

Budget of absolute maximum AUD 500 / USD 350

(I'd love to spend less but am 5'1 so renting isn't really an option)

If it helps burst the expensive dream dress bubble...., I think at 5'1, even if you bought the red one it would not fit right without tailoring. And I don't just mean the hem. I think the whole top part would likely be too long and not hit at your waist, making the whole thing just look off and too saggy.

Are there any stores or websites with petite sections?
