Just because it is prom night, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t take a risk. And wearing a printed gown can be one amazing way to stand out from the crowd. So do not be afraid to wear feminine florals or polka dots. And don’t forget color! You can choose from a classic black and white combination or a jumble of blue and green. Prom dresses should be unique.

Two-Pieces

And if you are really a trend setter than a two-piece style gown can take your prom look to the next level. Whether you want to go long sleeve or with a cropped top, a two-piece style is amazing. This is also a great way to play with proportion. We recommend wearing a form-fitting top with a more volume-filled skirt. Choose from jewel tones or monochrome for a shining outfit.
