Buying ball gowns and formal dresses online has always been a very risky option. The reason for that is that they are usually pretty expensive and if a dress does not fit like a glove then it just does not look good, and most times the product does not match what the model on the website is wearing. There are millions of videos on YouTube about these “online shopping horror stories” and I am sure we have all watched them at least one in our life. The only way to avoid purchases which we will regret later is to shop on reliable websites which are usually not in a very low price range. Needless to say that the more you pay for a gown, the more likely the purchase will be satisfactory. In order to avoid the mistake of ordering a dress which on the model it sure looks amazing but once it arrives to your door it looks like a Halloween costume, the best strategy is to buy from some of the websites listed below.

However, it goes without saying that there are definitely tons of other brands that I did not mention in this post, so please feel free to leave them in the comments below. I only included the ones which either I am really familiar with (meaning that I have already purchased from them) or that I have read very positive reviews on. Some of them you have probably already heard of but I tried to find brands which you might not know. Lastly, when looking for a ball gown just remember that buying is not the only option available, as you will see at the end of the post.

And for now, even if you do not have any upcoming event to attend, let’s just pretend that as soon as we get out of any sort of quarantine/lockdown, we will be able to celebrate (and we will therefore have the right dress for it).
