Nothing is more glamorous than a long strapless dress for special occasions: it shows off some of the most attractive features on a woman including shoulders, arms, face and arms without being too bare.

Whether you choose a short gown or a long gown, like this tiered style Drew Barrymore wears, you'll want to pay extra attention to accessories around the face (either earrings or a necklace) and lips (Drew chose red!).
