Evening Gown Puns

Picture for reference.

I won 1st place, by the way.

Like it or not, people are judged on their appearance. It doesn't matter what their gender, race, or sexual orientation is. Good or bad, right or wrong, first impressions are visual.

Part of a real, proper beauty contest is in fact judging a person on their level of apparent health and fitness, their general body shape, how well they appear to take care of themselves, and their overall attractiveness. Hence the word beauuuutyyy. That's the way it's always been- at least up until recently. A simple concept really, but apparently one that many folks either can't or won't accept.

An intelligent mind and a charming personality are great, but the first thing the judges and the audience are gonna choose a winner on is how good that young lady looks in a bikini, or how well that guy rocks that Speedo ( they have male beauty contests too ) . It's just the nature of the beast. To me it was all perfectly fine before certain misguided people started meddling with it ( like they tend to do with everything else ) .

If an attractive young woman ( or man ) wants to flaunt their body on national TV in exchange for cash, prizes, or simple recognition, then they have every right to do so. And no one else has any business telling them that they either can't or shouldn't.

I just got invited to a Mardi Gras ball, but I have no idea where to get a dress. Ideally I’d like to find one under $150, but I’m willing to go $225 for the perfect dress

I’m attending a event and need a black evening gown, but having trouble identifying what would work with my lines since no color blocking or cutouts.

Edited: for privacy.

Hello! Does anyone know any dress shops were I could get a dress for a formal event (possibly fitted to me potentially?)

Sorry in advance if this is not the right place to ask this.

After a frustrating search looking at gowns this past month, I've started floating around the idea of having a custom-made colored gown for my wedding. Problem is, I have zero understanding of the work involved in dressmaking and don't want to offend any designers (or waste their time inquiring) if their work is simply way out of my budget.

What would be a reasonable expectation to have when requesting a custom dress? What I'm really looking for is a simple floor-length A-line gown of a particular color-- no lace, details or beading, just a simple silhouette and a nice quality fabric. Any help is much appreciated.

So far we have (majorly): ● Bunnygirls ● Christmas ● Kimonos ● Halloween ● Idols ● Evening gowns ● Race queens ● Sport ● Swimsuits ● School uniforms

... I didn't even think it would be that many! But, there's still so many more avenues worth exploring. With the approaching 4th anniversary stream and the recent addition bunny girls, I thought now would be q good time to ask - what other skin themes should AL delve into?

Pirates? Scifi? Sailor girls? Ninjas? Warrior themes (vikings, samurai, etc)? Cyberpunk? Mafia? Maids for the non-maids?

So many gacha games do this sort of thing, LoL also makes tonnes if but my personal suggestion is casual Cyberpunk. I think it'd be great seeing the ship girls of AL done up with super chic Cyberpunk style, lots of neon and plastics. 👍

I'm planning a really special date night with my wife, and I thought that it would make it even more special if we both rented some expensive formal wear (neither of us own any). I can't afford to purchase her a dress for say $5,000, but for a special night I figure we could rent one for whatever it costs. Let me preface this by saying that we both have good jobs and are very financially savvy people, so please no responses telling me that I am wasting my money. I just want this to be a special night and we don't do this often.

A quick search on google showed me one place but I was hoping the people here could provide some recommendations, and also maybe share some experience doing this as I've never rented any formal wear before. I don't know where we would go for my (male) formal wear but I assume finding her (female) dress is a more difficult task.
