Hunting for the perfect sexy dress can leave a girl feeling a little like Goldilocks — this neckline's too low, that hemline's too high, and this one's too tight! If any of these woes sound familiar, we have to ask: have you considered going backless?
If you're already thinking about what to wear for a Valentine's Day date [1], give the sultry style a chance. There are scandalous numbers just right for the hottest date and more modest options, too, that look more elegant than seductive. Whatever your style M.O., we think we've found just the one for you.
