It's right there in the name: You slip into a party dress to go out and have a good time! Beautiful party dresses have been an essential part of a woman's wardrobe for centuries, dating back to French Aristocracy in the 1700s. Back then, dresses were tailor-made for women to wear in order to flaunt their high class. Today, they are much more accessible and worn by anyone attending a party or social event. Party dresses exude femininity and fun, and are appropriate for dancing, dining out, and the inevitable photo op!
