Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini scarf print midi dress, from $150, Rent the Runway Blue embroidery adds just enough color to this adorable engagement party dress

It offers genuine elegance through its defined waist and graceful flared skirt, yet it never sacrifices comfort or ease of movement, which is a rare combination in formalwear

Choose a V-neckline for a lengthening effect, and let the tied waist create natural shape

The designer fashion also impresses with details such as embroidery and shimmering, glossy colors

Please note that from this point going forward I am no longer following the McCalls V-Neck Dress Pattern, so you can officially put that aside if you are making your dress like mine
