Selecting a Dress for Prom
The prom is the most awaited social event in the campus. This is something like a coming out affair wherein you really have to look your best for others to appreciate you. In fact, the prom is every girl’s dream. This is the time when she really has to forget classes and be a princess for a day. Who knows, she might even end up being the prom queen. Hence, it is just right to really choose your prom dress. Your dress should bring out the beauty hidden in you all those years. Here are some important points that would guide you in choosing your prom dress.
1. For starters, it would be a great idea to venture into another friendly color. Choose a color for your dress which you seldom use or have never used inside the campus. This would spell IMPACT! Try to experiment by trying on different colors. Let a friend or your mom be your judge while trying on dresses.
2. Go for pastel colors or cool colors. This will show you your right age without making you an inch older. Formally, you may seem mature but in essence, the pastel or cool colors will reveal your youth, your fresh aura.
3. Choose a dress that would flaunt your most attractive body part. Get a dress with uneven hems for those who have legs to show. If you have an IT back, go backless. For those who have have gorgeous eyes, go for a dress with glittery neckline or chest part to accent your eyes. These will surely make your eye color pop.
4. For the bodice, if you are thin or with a flat-chest, choose one with ruffles or large accent. If you are on the big side, pick a dress with a simple bodice which would not call much attention to your body.
5. Don’t go for printed dresses. This would not make you look like a princess!
6. Now, for the design. It is advisable to go for the trendy style that will match your age. This would make you look your age or even younger. Avoid using an out-dated style. There are a lot of retro looks which are in style now.
You will still look young in it because it is the call of fashion once again.
Prom is a very important event in a high school girl’s life and many look forward to it even before they first hit the high school campus.

Bringing friends along to shop, or taking the advice of a sales person can be helpful, but the ultimate decision is up to you-the one who will be wearing it. Have fun, don’t stress out, and be open to different styles because sometimes you will be very pleasantly surprised. And don’t be afraid to present your own style, even if it’s unique.
