NP and I like this because it seems dressy but not princessy - seems like something that a confident person would wear

I don't think confidence is the right word. I think it reads this isn't a special night. Which is fine. Just don't mix up the two.

It's the same dress in each link.

It feels a little boring for a crystal themed gala, especially as a co-host of your table.

What would you do - if a petite size 10?

It's a pretty dress, but not really dressy enough for the event and co-hosting a table.

As a co-host of a table at a spring, crystal themed gala, maybe something like this:

I'm a pear. Used to be 6/8, now more like 10.

Don't really want to spend more than $300-600, but for the right dress where I could get use over time, willing to spend more.

Looking forward to suggestions!

"Crystal Party" - what does that even mean?

Galas are generally very formal. Since they specified cocktail attire, I would wear skew dressy with tall, strappy heels.

Given that it's a "spring gala" maybe this:

Or just cocktail gala attire: https://www.neimanmarcus.com/p/helsi-florence-embroidered-strapless-midi-dress-prod275180499?childItemId=NMT61RE_&msid=4882073&navpath=cat000000_cat000001_cat58290731_cat43810733_cat9360738&page=0&position=7

Is there a theme?

What's your budget and body type?

DH and I are cosponsoring a table through his work. Totally spaced and is in a few weeks. What can I wear to a spring gala? Invitation specifies cocktail attire. TIA.
