Occasion: Military Ball

In this video blog, "Occasion: Military Ball", Genealogy Boutique & Formals prepares you to attend one of the year's most sophisticated, fun events - The Military Ball. Each year the Armed Forces hold a Military Ball. While the primary purpose of the Ball is to honor the military, they also offer an opportunity for the community to meet members of our Armed Forces.

This formal affair is a "mess dress" for the military, meaning they will be in uniform, and black tie for other guests. You want to look classy and elegant when attending a military ball. That said, this is one occasion for which you should opt for a somewhat conservative, floor length gown. This doesn't mean you can't wear a strapless gown, just keep the bodice in check, making sure it's not exposing an inappropriate amount of skin. The best choice is a simple dress that has minimal embellishments.

The color of the dress you choose should match the clothing of your date. He should wear a tie or cummerbund in the same color as your dress so that you complement each other. If your date is in the military he will be wearing his uniform, so make sure that the color of your gown doesn't clash or compete with his ensemble.

At Genealogy, we have limitless options when choosing your Military Ball gown. Stop in today or check us out online to browse our huge selection of designer gowns!
