Choosing the Right Prom Dress
Your high school prom is the ultimate event of your entire senior year; it is the celebration of all your hard work as you prepare to move into your adult life. For many girls it is not just another dance, it is the ultimate dance, and a large part of the fun is spending hours sorting through dozens of different prom dresses to find the perfect one for this all important night.
With this in mind, how do you know what the perfect prom dress is or is there really such a thing? The truth is that there is no such thing as the perfect dress and at the same time there is. You are probably wondering how any dress can possibly be both at the same time. Much like any other dress or item of clothing, what may look fantastic on one person can be less flattering on another. Just because your best friend looks fabulous in a long aqua colored dress, does not mean it will look good on you.
Your ideal prom gown is the one that makes you feel like a million dollars and turns heads wherever you go. Certainly you can look at what the current fashion trends are like, in most cases these are what you are going to find in the stores anyway. Look at what the hottest celebrities are wearing this season. In most cases they are wearing dresses that have been designed by the top fashion designers in the world. This does not mean that you have to buy the same designer labels, but what they are wearing can definitely give you some really good ideas for your gown.
Many girls take a very big interest in what is being worn on the red carpet at the Oscars and the Grammys. These styles are considered to be among the hottest for prom dresses and are quickly replicated by manufacturers at prices that those who are not celebrities can more readily afford. Other sources you can look at to get ideas for your choice of dress can include beauty pageants such as Miss USA, Miss Teen USA, Miss Universe and any others you happen to come across.
You need to remember that all of these dresses are carefully designed to highlight each contestant’s best features and are among the hottest and latest fashions on the market. In fact you will find that many of the most popular prom dresses are made to imitate these dresses. You can also surf through the stores in your local mall to get a good idea of what the top fashion designers are marketing this year.
Before deciding on a final idea of what you want in a prom dress, you should invest time in looking at the hottest fashion sites online. This can help you with choosing the right style as can reading through the plethora of fashion magazines to see what others are planning for the dresses this coming prom season. Many of these magazines are filled with the latest advice on what is hot this year for prom dresses and where you can go to find what you are looking for.
While doing this much research might seem to be a lot of hard work, you have to look at it from the right point of view. If you go into your search thinking of it as an adventure or a quest, with the reward at the end being the perfect dress, the whole process can be fun, the whole process can be fun. Try on both long and short styles to see which one feels right when you try it on and when all is said and done, you will have found the perfect dress for your prom.
