This blog will feature some of our favourite celebrity dresses from the Golden Globes along with similar dresses to hire from Girl Meets Dress.

Dakota Johnson looked timeless in this Gucci gown, that she walked the red carpet in. The glittery black Gucci gown which she paired with sparkling jewellery. It wasn’t until she turned around, however, that we fully appreciated the look. The back featured a crystal-embellished bow design, and completely left us stunned. It was gorgeous! Below is our choice for you to get the look and hire a dress just like this one!

This JILL JILL STUART dress is, the classic sleek slip dress by inserting delicate Chantilly lace with a softly draped neckline. The fitted waist and flattering neckline epitomizes sophistication. Hire a dress from us and look as gorgeous as Dakota Johnson did!

Sunday night saw the 65^th annual Primetime Emmy Awards, presented by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. Winners included Breaking Bad, Homeland and Broadwalk Empire, but the best winner of all? The fashion! The Emmys are the perfect opportunity for celebrities to wear ball gowns.

Nude
There was an abundance of nude ball dresses at the Emmys. Nude is the perfect subtle colour and celebrities like Claire Danes, January Jones and Kerry Washington all opted for nude designer gowns. If you’re looking for a ball dress hire try our nude Elliot Claire Cream Toned Dress, or our Dynasty Margaery Gown.

Pastel
Continuing with the subtle palette, stars like Zoey Deschanel, Malin Akerman and Rose Byrne opted for a pastel shade with their ball gowns. Girl Meets Dress have tons of pastel ball dresses to hire, like our Ariella Catherine Gown, or our Diva Sophia Una Gown in Pink.

1) Diva Sophia Una Gown Mint – £39

I love this ball dress because it’s a perfect dress for summer, instead of wearing the usual LBD why not opt for a mint green pastel colour – you’ll definitely stand out amongst other people. If you’re wanting a simple prom dress, but with a splash of colour, then this is the dress for you.

2) Ariella Gisele Gown – £109

This ball gown is full on glamour. It is SO eye catching and you’ll be sure to turn every head in the room once you walk in! The embellishments make this ball dress look flawless, and very classy – what more could you want!? The ball gown cut is highly flattering for any shape, and for sure you’ll be the one dazzling in the middle of the room.

3) Dina Bar-El Audrey Gown – £109

Instead of wearing your old LBD, why not opt for a change and go for a LBD with a bit more sophistication. This black Audrey Gown is definitely something different, with an open back it will certainly turn heads – and is certainly a change from the normal LBD. You will definitely stand out in a row of LBD’s with this number on, perfect for a formal, laid back black tie event.

4) Erdem Holly Maxi Dress – £79

If you’re feeling more adventurous, why not hire the Holly Maxi Dress. The patterns are unique and interesting, and will sure have people wishing they had that ball dress on. The floor length of this dress adds a classy element to it, a spin on the casual dress you often find with a similar pattern to this. Just dress it up with some simple jewellery and voila, you’ll look perfect.

5) Jovani Sequin Tulle Gown – £109

And finally… the one you’ve all been waiting for. This Jovani ball gown is purely stunning and everyone will wish you were their friend with this number on. The embellishment really makes this dress what it is, and you don’t have to wear any jewellery with this dress as I am pretty sure the dress does all of the talking!
