With a fitted bodice giving way to a very full skirt,
the "ballgown" is one of the most striking silhouettes.
I've shown it here (Fig.1) with a "sweetheart" neckline
(curved to a point at the center, like the tip of a
valentine), a puff sleeve and a basque waistline (with a
downward cusp in the front). I might choose a "duchess
satin" (smooth and weighty with a matte finish) for the
bodice, with an organza (sheer and crisp with an airy
look) for the skirt. Belle's gold lam� dress from the
ballroom scene of "Beauty and the Beast" is a good
example of this style.
