I LOVE the idea of the cuffs. I don't tend to wear my hair up, and for the university balls they tend to not be super formal so I was probably planning on wearing my hair down, especially because I have to do it myself and I have NO skills!&nbsp;</p> <p>Hehe I completely forgot that hair and makeup would depend on what I look like I have long brown hair! I love wearing dark plummy lips and haven't ventured into much else in terms of makeup, but I am getting it professionally done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1708304 Fri, 05 Aug 2016 01:08:38 +0000 Beth Ann 1708304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress -- perfect for the function you describe. &nbsp;I don't know what you look like, but I think hair in an updo is generally more formal, and cooler for dancing -- just make sure it's fuss free so you can enjoy the evening.</p> <p>Also, make sure your slipper is as comfortable as it is beautiful, or you'll be dropping it like Cinderella before you leave the ball!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1708277 Fri, 05 Aug 2016 00:17:58 +0000 Column 1708277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This neckline in black reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. Angie's suggestions sound very "now," which would be great for your age. But if you think you can do retro, what about pearls and an updo? On fashion shows, I notice designers taking models' hair up when they want to show off a dress's neckline. Bold lip color and strong eyeliner seem appropriate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1708261 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 23:23:30 +0000 Anna 1708261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's stunning. I agree, I wouldn't change the lines of the dress, it is perfect the way it is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1707983 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 12:20:32 +0000 FashionRCD 1707983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmmm, I love vintage fashion,,, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1707591 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 14:18:06 +0000 Anonymous 1707591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi there ! &nbsp;That is a stunning dress indeed. &nbsp;I wouldn't change a thing- and would style it as Angie suggested. It's impossible to comment on hair and makeup without knowing what you look like </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1707588 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 14:15:27 +0000 Angie 1707588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, and that's a stunning dress. Try a silver or rose gold support act instead. Chandelier earrings and two identical cuffs on each wrist.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/re-styling-and-old-dress#post-1707442 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 05:05:57 +0000 ohgeorgina 1707442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi friends! I'm new on this forum!</p> <p>I have this Carla Zampatti gown from when I graduated high school (3 years ago) that I'm looking to restyle for an upcoming university ball. I was even thinking of getting it altered to have a new neckline or back. </p> <p>Does anyone have any ideas on hair, makeup, shoes and accessories that could make this dress look amazing? I previously wore it with shoes similar to the photo.&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/93/f8/42/93f8425d37a15da4bfdfcff2f98f1edc.jpg">https://s-media-cache-ak0.pini.....8f1edc.jpg</a> </p>
