It's no coincidence that some of our favourite evening gowns are made from lustrous silk satin – as Diane von Furstenberg's Alberta style shows, it's the perfect slinky fabric for glamorous events. Cape-style sleeves fall down fluidly from this beautifully draped navy design, adding a note of drama that's called for after dark. Let the plunging neckline highlight a sparkling necklace.
