True Princess

It’s most girl’s dreams to feel like a total princess in a dress at least once in their lives. Prom is the perfect time to go all out on a ball gown and have your perfect princess moment. Pair with a fancy updo, a dramatic makeup look and sparkly accessories. Pink is a classic choice for an epic ball gown but red, dark blue and soft green will make for a beautiful dress. Make sure to get at least one photo of you spinning to show off the amazing skirt!

Seeing Rainbows

Can’t decide on one colored dress? Try a little bit of every color! Get a dress in bright, fun colors to match your cheery personality or get a dress featuring several colors in the same hue for a gorgeous monochromatic look. Stick with simple makeup and hair and let your dress shine!

Silky Slit

If you’re looking to add a little sultry into your look, try a silk dress or a dress with a major Angelina Jolie slit! Depending on the look you’re going for, either of these can add some major drama to your overall look. Keep the look softer with a lighter shade of pink or blue or add some drama and go for a deep red or black dress. Either way, pair it with some attitude!

Sheer Interest

Don’t be afraid of sheer (layered) fabrics. Sheer makes any dress look soft and romantic so it is perfect to be seen alongside your date. Pair with romantic waves or a curly updo and a soft makeup pallet for a perfect prom look.

Easy Emerald

Want to feel like a mermaid at your prom? Try a deep, rich emerald or emerald-hued blue dress in silk or satin that moves easily for a perfect siren look. A loose flowing dress is perfect for a more casual nod to the ocean but a mermaid cut dress will add drama and wow!

Snow Queen

Generally reserved for brides, we love a white dress, especially for prom! Look for dresses with fun details like sequins, ruffles or rhinestone designs. If you’re on the fence about an all-white dress, try one with a fitted bodice and loose skirt and make sure to put your napkin in your lap while you eat dinner to prevent accidents!

Red Hot

Feeling spicy? A red dress is sassy and fun and when paired with a smoky eye and fun updo, you can be one hot mama! If you don’t want to be too hot, try a darker red or burgundy for all the drama without the same level of shock!
