Prom Fashion Guide

Today’s post is a Prom Fashion Guide for those attending Junior and Senior Proms are styles and tips highlighted.   Juniors and Seniors look forward to attending this event.  They start the process of looking for a date, dress, the tux, hairstylist, beauty, make-up, limo, photos, and the event.

Growing up, we waited for that someone special to ask us to the Prom.  Furthermore, we then went and selected a dress.  Prom Season has changed.  Now one looks for dresses months ahead of time, before even having a date.  Girls want to have first dibs on securing a dress for the big night.  Many Shops keep a registry of the styles it sells to ensure that no two dresses sell for the same event.  Dress registries have become the norm for teenagers attending prom.  The need for these registries, ensure Shop Owners and teens that they won’t have the same dress as their friends.  No one wants a comparison in “Who Wore It Best”

The average price for a prom dress is $350.00 – $500.00.  With everyone using social media, girls post their dresses on a Facebook group and invite their friends to post pictures of what they are wearing.  It ruins the surprise on everyone knowing what you’re going to wear, but it ensures no one has the same dress.  Stores have been caught selling to more than one girl the same Prom dress.  In addition, I personally have been a witness to the chaos that follows.  Mothers come into the Store and demand their money back.

Fashion Guide

  1. Shop for the dress.  I shopped for my Best Friend’s daughter and had dresses put aside for her so when they came into the Store I had some of the work done.
  2. Once you have selected a dress, pick up jewelry to accessorize.
  3. Shoes – Find the right shoe to match the dress, but make sure they are comfortable as you’re going to be standing and dancing all night.
  4. Make-up.  Many girls have appointments with department store specialty make-up counters or local make-up or beauty bars to get glamourous.
  5. Hair – Appointments are booked months ahead of time.    The blow dry bar I frequent is popular with girls attending their prom.  They have braids, curls, and elaborate updos.
  6. Your date for the prom’s tuxedo accessories should coordinate with your dress.
  7. Flowers – Many still opt for a corsage.
  8. Spray tans

Prom Fashion Guide above are tips to help you plan for this special night.  In conclusion, have your camera ready and plan to take pictures for this magical night.
