Pick a hue that adds sheen to your overall look! From bold colors to pastels to nude shades, our color palette is reminiscent of your unique aura.

Length Matters

Comforting Fabrics

Fabric that feels insanely comfortable is a bonus point in looking stunning! The Dress Nova has in-store dresses graced with fabrics that caress your skin, be it polyester, tulle, brocade, satin, sequined mesh, print sequin, etc.

What Makes Our Evening Gown Collection So Versatile?

You asked for versatility, and here we delivered! Ditching the fashion rulebook, our collection is not only about majestic formal gowns; we've amped up the game with some killer formal pantsuits too!

Gone are the days when formal dresses were donned only for black-tie affairs. Our dresses are not just a one-hit wonder; they are your passport to looking exceptionally terrific at any event, be it a prom, cocktail night, homecoming, wedding, anniversary, romantic candlelight date, etc.!

Styling Your Formal Dresses

To spice up your formal dress game, you definitely need some finishing touches! While putting together your outfit, opt for minimal jewelry pieces, including elegant stone-studded earrings, a sleek choker, and a fancy watch.

To heel or not to heel? The choice is yours. However, there's an undeniable charm in the elongated silhouette that heels effortlessly create! Remember to carry a metallic clutch—a fashion essential for completing your captivating ensemble!

Your look isn’t officially complete until you glam it up with the right hairstyle and makeup. Sleek updo or loose waves, red lips or nude, smokey drama or glittery eyes, pink or coral blush, there are endless ways to slay. Remember, you must pick the look that roars only “YOU!”
