I have a wedding to attend in July, and it's black tie. Not black tie optional, but black tie. In Georgetown, the swankiest part of DC, at a fancy-pants hotel, at the end of July. I've never been to a black tie wedding! I was under the impression that black tie means long gown, but to me, most long gowns look like bridesmaid dresses. I don't want to clash with them (I should find out what color their dresses are, eh?) and I am just not sure what to wear! I love dressing up, but am paranoid that I will somehow dress wrong!
I saw this dress on Nordstrom's website and am really liking it. The price isn't so bad either! It comes in navy or gunmetal. I am liking the gunmetal, actually, and also, my sister's bridesmaid dresses are navy, and I probably don't need two long navy gowns....
What do you think? Could I wear this dress to the wedding? Have you been to a black tie wedding?
What did you wear to it?

That dress is beautiful! I would definately wear that to a black tie wedding, as long as it doesnt clash with the colour scheme!
oh i love that dress! nordstrom's has a great selection of long dresses, that's where i got mine for a wedding i went to in march.
That dress is beautiful! Black tie means long gown to me.
LOVE that dress! Did you get it? I think you can go short, but you need the right fabric, like I have seen some gorgeous short lace dresses that would work at a Black Tie....
