I decided to wear a colorful dress this year to ball [: I'm trying to avoid the whole long-gowny dress this year since I already did that last year for prom but it's kind of hard finding formal short dresses! Here are pics. from last year [I'm the one in white :]


BCBG DRESS[:

My long dress was such a pain to dance in D:
I'll post more later after photobucket stops being stupid [:

ilovechu: I loooove your dress!!! you look so pretty in it too :] I have a similar BCBG one but shorter

ahhh I can never get enough of BCBG dresses...

bcbgg?!!! Agghhhh~!! Niceee!!! lol.

the second one looks like you were at the red carpet.. LOL..
VERY PRETTY! ^^

My three favorite dresses from Jovani^^
I would be happy to where anyone of these three to Prom but they're too expensive.
T____________T

gorgeous!
What a coicidence! The dress I am getting tailor is the red buble dress!
Quick question though, can sleeveless dress work on petite? I mean, do you have to have a rack to hang the dress (pun unintended)?
What err... enhancements can I use to make the dress stay?

there's always hollywood fashion tape, which is just double sided tape that sticks to your skin and your dress. what i do is secretly safety pin my strapless dresses to my bra so there won't be anything sliding down, given that your bra is a decent strapless that will stay on. i have yet to try the double sided tape though.

and i too small boobs so i have no clue what dress i'm going to wear. at least i know my bits won't be hanging out

my prom sucked.
but I loved my dress LOL



hmm... mine was short


BCBG <3

I got all my homecoming dresses from BCBG as well LOL

Even though prom is a couple more months away.. I already got my prom dress.. ^^

And I got it for "just because". I'm not a big shopper so I don't think I'd be able to get one in time if I decided to get one later. It's not one I REALLYY want, but I'm somewhat satisfied. It'll be my backup in case I don't find another dress I like more haha.

I really wanted a green dress >_< (I LOVE GREEN<33)

This is the one I REALLYREALLYREALLYREALLYREAAAAALLY want. I saved it from last year's prom thread. I went to look through all 90+ pages TWICE. but couldn't find the user who originally posted the pic. I'm guessing it was one of the x's. I even started right clicking the x'ed pics to see if the name matched up with the pic name I saved it under but got tired halfway. I wanted to ask her where she got it from or.. the designer of the dress xP But I still couldn't find it TT______TT I'm really in love with that dress >____<;

So does anybody recognize the dress/designer? If the picture is of you can you please PM me where you got it from? XD (btw I really like your subtle makeup~ )

Does anyone have a site/store they know where I can purchase a LONG dress
that somewhat looks like this one - http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/g...e_1990_98746434
but instead not a halter dress more like two THICK straps on the sides ?
Please help

poop-shoop-a-loo: that's trishaa001's studio picture i think lol.

in this picture, where did your friend (the girl in the other red dress) get her's from?
i want something similar. :]

jflafjda; THANK YOU. <3
hmm.. maybe I didn't find it in the prom '07 thread.. lol. Wasted so much time there looking for the original owner of the pic >.<

i'm planing to TRY and get the hanbok one... have anyone seen the dress
its like a hanbok but tube dress... REALLY nice

I found dresses that were somewhat similar, but none with thick straps. Sorry. Good luck finding one. :x (Some look like repeats and they are, but check out the prices and colors. xP)
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six
Seven
Eight
Nine
Ten

Everyone looks awesome, by the way. :]

OMGOSH YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!
(i am sooooo not biased on the fact that you're my best friend )
I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T GET TO SEE YOU BEFORE YOU LEFT TO PROM EITHER

i have NOOOOO idea on what kind of a dress to get :[
i want a long dress, but i look bad in... every dress?
my mommy also says that i have to find a date first before i get a dresss

//edit
asianxmushu: they sell hanbok-style dresses??

that was my prom dress for 2007
bought it from jovani.com
T_T so expensive

Dress was less than $30 at Papaya. Shoes were my mom's. Did my own nails. Hair done by auntie. Make up done by friend. Carpooled. Pre-Prom Party at my friends. (The food was phenomanal! <3) Post-Prom Party at my place by playing Super Smash Brothers Melee until everyone fell asleep on the couches and floors. It was one heck of a night.

And excuse my oogly face. Too lazy to blur. ><;;
[/size]

This is so pretty and it's not even $200 o__o
I was home-schooled and graduated early anyways so I never got to go to prom - or any other dance for that. These threads make me feel so left out but I love looking at everyones prom pictures ^-^;

I'm thinking of doing like a 20's theme this year - I'm not into long dresses, and I fell in love with this when I saw it.



What does everybody else think? I love her hair like that, too, so I'd probably put my hair the same way.

I think it's cute! ^^
I just don't like that band around her head.

Thanks I just noticed how much I love her shoes. Now I'm wondering how I'm going to get my hair like that, since my hair reaches my mid-back. Wig, perhaps?

REALLY??
i LOVE the whole oldies theme!
WITH the hair&the headband lol
the hair caught my eye more than the dress but yeahh the dress is also really pretty!!

there is this really cute black short dress i saw at windsor..
very cute..

hahaha they ask when they get the courage to? i unno, my boyfriend asked me quite early lol. he wanted me to have the time to look for a dress(we don't go to the same school and i was only in gr10 last year so obviously, i didn't have my own prom)

So i'm debating if i should get a long or a short dress. I know that wearing a short dress to prom is a lot more convenient. as in, to get in and out of the car, dance and just everything. but i wore a short dress last year so i want to try something else. ahh i don't know, maybe i'll end up wearing a short dress again but with a more fun colour. last year, my dress was like cream brown? i really don't know how to explain it, but it was a nice dress. Got it for like 100$
I'm thinking of getting it in purple, green, pink or this shade of blue that compliments my skin tone. i need to go shop for my prom dress >.<

STUFF ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO QUOTE IMAGES
Read the rules already.



That red one is just absolutely stunning!!! Looks so good on you =]

I'm thinking of getting a dress that is below the knees but does any dresses that would suit a girl that hardly have any boobs? LOLz
I'm, like, flat-chested >O<

Most of the dresses I've seen are suited for busty girls.

Where's this dress from?
It's adorable!

lol I love the band around her hair, too! It kinda completes the look IMO



It's from Rebecca Taylor - you can preorder it at Saks for $365. Luckily, it's being released just before my prom

hey fello arcadian =D well u graduated already, but still. xD

prom is not until may.... i'll think of dress later...

i think you should go for a dress that ends around your knees
like not floor-length, otherwise it'll make it hard for you to dance
this is what i wore to my prom last june

and a close-up of the detail

This is the dress I want:





I love the colours, like mad! It's bold but still elegant.

For those who ordered their dress online, how long did it take for the dress to come, and from where?

I really want this dress. =(
No idea where to get it tho :\

OMGGGG!!! I WANT TO GET A DRESS LIKE ^THIS!!!!!
WHERE DID U GET ITTT?????

and i also have a question: do most ppl wear long dresses to junior prom? and would it be weird to wear short dresses to prom?

this is how my dress looks like
http://www.edressme.com/cko64621.html
except it is black and the belt part is white.... it's soo elegant hhh and simple

^omgosh i loveee it!
too bad it's $340 though.. little too pricey for me

kelseyum : Oh goodness, that's like my perfect ideal dress for grad!! I was looking for a dark green bubble dress just like that!!

all of these are so pretty! i'm getting mine hand made tho!

My senior prom is in like 3 months. I need to start looking already, omgosh I want my dress like that! But in a different color. I like the whole curtains ruffle thing on the bottom of the dress. My limit is $200 or less.
Hawwwwwwwwwww, does anyone know where I can get one?

this is the dress that i got for my prom
originally it was $178 but i got a coupon for 50% off
so in the end it didn't cost that much =] they had two color
one is orange and another one is hot pink...i end up getting the hot pink one
sorry..i can't find a better picture of it

if i could turn back time, and have went to my prom i would have wanted these dresses:

i cna't wait until my prom... lol!!! once i have pics i will post for sure!!! i went to some place to make my dress and it was super pricey....

yep, ive seen them. some look nice, others are kinda blah.
i like this one. but i dont think i'd wear it to prom. ...well maybe without the headpiece.

such pretty dresses. i wanna go long for my prom but i dunno if i wanna go poofy or sleek...most likely sleek...this thread has made me realize that i should start finding a dress. not to mention a date o.O must not procrastinate when it comes to prom

ahh omg, i want this dress too!!! i saw it in a catalogue that my school was giving out. i can't wait to go dress shopping =D

nvm, -------------deleted

Oh, wow, that is freaking adorable.
Haha, I'm going to my first prom this year >__>;;
I'm wondering if that's even formal enough. xDD Haha, I am so noob. ;-;

i love this dress... btw, where did you find it?

^
http://www.bestpromdresses.com/shop/b155761175.htm

edit. nvm

that's the dress i'm planning to wear for prom; jessica mcclintock
got it when the store was gonna close or something so it was wayyy less than $100. might have been less than $50 ^^;

but now that i look through the forum.. i sort of want to go with a shorter one.. cause i wore that to my uncle's wedding and it was hard to walk around in.. like i kept stepping on my dress [prolly cause it was a bit long on me -__-;] & then it was kinda hard to dance in... but it did look <33 =/

any opinion? haha

This is what I PLAN on getting,
I dont really like the straps,
so I dont know what to do about that.
=O

its really cheap so I plan on splurging on shoes and accesories.
^^
