Holiday Fashion with Perfect Bound – The Black Tie Affair

As promised, Anne-Marie of Perfect Bound has another great holiday look to share with us today – this one being perfect for the ultra sophisticated black tie affair.

Dressing for a black tie event doesn’t mean you have to be serious, just formal. A long black dress with a killer neckline, in this case a single ruffled shoulder, does the trick without being boring. This gown is done in a floor-sweeping green tiger-print silk-georgette with gold snake-skin detailing–amazing. You could end it all there. But shoes, in this case black or gold peep toes, are a must. The faux fur is so in style right now and the color pulls the whole look together.

Sorry, but I wouldn't wear this. The accessories are nice but the dress and hideous fur conjure Dorthy from Golden Girls.
