Whether you want black, bright primary or pastel colors, this one shoulder gown is totally about the open back trend. Rhinestones highlight asymmetrical aspects of this floor length dress. Carefully incorporating pleats, the full effect is strong, sparkling yet effortless. It's a whole new angle on the sweetheart gown.

This B Darlin long dress is a perfect example of which side is better. I love the cut out lines on the open back, but the jeweled halter neck is gorgeous. Black is ever so sophisticated. Buy this dress now and be prepared for your next formal dance!

Sheer panels and creative cut outs make it difficult to choose a photo of the front or back of La Femme's sleek open back dress. Straps from the front cut out sections criss cross the upper back for a dramatic look that's got a touch of practical as well. I chose the front view for the fabulous sheer panel insert that shrinks your midriff. This open back gown would be a great choice for a full busted beauty.

Want that open back look but feeling a bit bashful? Then I heartily recommend this lace trimmed open back dress. This V neck gown features a ruched bodice and waistband. At the back, a large scale floral lace frames the open back. A sleek, slim skirt keeps all of the focus on you.
