Maggie Sottero wasn’t afraid to take a leap away from traditional dresses with this glamorous fuschia red gown. The full bustle skirt is ruched but instead of leaving it plain, each swathe of material is caught up with a beaded motif that folds seamlessly into a boned corset. The sparkle doesn’t end there though, the sweetheart neckline has a drape which frames a dramatic jewelled centrepiece amidst the beaded neckline.

Shy, retiring types should avoid this one. Belles of the ball should snap it up.
