How to Choose the Perfect Ball Gown - Featuring ASHLEYlauren

How to Choose the Perfect Ball Gown - Featuring ASHLEYlauren

Posted by TEAMfabulous on April 30, 2025

When the question of how to pick a ball gown dress comes, there are a variety of factors to consider. Here at TEAMfabulous we believe there are two categories that are of the highest importance in choosing your next ball gown. 


Neckline

The neckline of a ball gown can make or break the entire look. If you are looking for something with more of a modest feel or wanting to be a little more covered, opt for a ball gown with a high neckline.  If you are going for a bit more of a mature and classic look, style up a strapless ball gown. For our girls that love a little flare and edge, we recommend a ball gown with a one shoulder neckline. These Ashley Lauren dresses are some of our favorites that show the variety of necklines that ASHLEYlauren ball gowns have.

Waistline

Choosing the perfect waistline for a ball gown is all subjective. Each waistline will have a different look and compliment each body type differently. For those with a longer torse, we suggest wearing a ball gown with a mid waist cut to accentuate where the waist line sits. A drop waist style ball gown would be a fabulous choice for those with a short frame and torso. The drop waist will help draw the eye upwards and keep the dress from overpowering the frame. A mid waist line ball gown is a universal cut that could work for many different body shapes and frames searching for their perfect ball gown. Take a look at some of our favorite ball gowns that feature these different waistlines.
