is this too informal for prom?? sorry it's a small pic..
i'm really short and i didn't know that the long dresses could be altered so i just chose among the short dresses..
do most ppl wear the long formal stuff? i already bought it but i can return it

i need some advice please! ahh so desperate... unsure.gif
thanks~ yeah, imma return it and get a long one altered

^ no, it doesn't really suit prom...
but it could work for winter dance or homecoming?
tammywammy


do you think this is formal for prom?
lonestatus
:\ i think anything is suiting for prom if you want to wear it. Not just anything, but in terms of dresses, it doesn't have to be floor-length or traditional.
Anyways, I got a black dress in HK :]
http://www.edressme.com/agf65307.html
:\ i don't know if mine is through BCBG b/c i couldn't find mine in black. haha whatever, it's a pretty dress. It isn't floor-length on me though. Possibly had alterations done on it already >< haha oh well. 300 or so cheaper, what more can I ask for? ^^

do you guys know whats the best website or place to get a short dress?
;x i can't find any ones that are really good.. haha. xDD

I remember trying this out in the fitting room and really really loving it. It's a simple Jessica McClintock short dress, but it was sooo adorable! Didn't get it though...since prom had passed a looooooooooong time ago. Just throwing it out there for you guys....and that sometimes the most simple dresses look the best on you.

blush
^ oh wow! that's cute! haha i'm looking for a simple short dress too xD that color is very fierce lol.
silntdreamer
Do you guys think this dress is okay to wear senior ball? Or is black too ehhh....



Sorry for the large image!!

^ I personally think that dress looks great! Even though it's black, there's a sequin design too. It really depends if you want to stand out more though...

I went to my friend's junior prom yesterday! (Mine is in May...) I was worried about my dress being too simple, as my family and me decided to buy it so we can use for my 18th birthday as well... But I think it looked fine?

Hey guys.. Question.
Obviously, a lot of people like to match colors with their date.. If the dress is red, her date's tie will be red, or something like that.

So..
My jr prom dress is white.
My date's tux is black.
Sure, the dress shirt and tie can be white, but:

How can we coordinate our outfits to match?

Wow, I LOVE IT. Your dress is stunning. <3 I'd never have the guts to wear something that fabulous to prom. biggrin.gif

How long is your hair? You should probably go with a simple hairstyle, to offset the dress.

Um, my issue is that I'm going to two proms, and I can't decide whether or not I should get two dresses. I already have one in mind, but it's WHITE. The two proms I'm going to are within a week of each other, and I'm afraid I'll spill something / get it dirty at the first one, and ruin it for the next.. Ideas?

(Plus, I'm only going as a date for both proms, neither is my own. So, I don't really want to feel like I'm OVERDOING it. I'm just a junior, after all...)

i have a question girls!

my prom dress has a cross near the upper back & i'd rather not have the back of my bra show so...

i was wondering if i should go bra-less or wear this low-back bra with clear straps?

Emerald Snow's dress is so nice! I saw it online in gold once. I was wondering which store you tried it on att.

hehe. Midnight Masquerade is the theme for my prom too! I don't know about other schools, but the people at my school don't really follow the themes.
Here's a website that sells Venetian masks: http://masks.ufimart.com/index.php?main_pa...dex&cPath=2
I just googled a 'masquerade masks' and there's a lot of links. Hope it helps!

My prom is on June 6th, I think. I haven't even gone shopping for a dress yet, or made any makeup or hair appointments. >___<; I'm thinking of getting a dark purple/violet dress, about knee length, and i don't know about the straps or any special ruffly or sparkly things on it yet.

ahh... time to start looking online now!

i personally would go bra-less or wear a NuBra/bra cups (ie from Victoria's Secret)
clear straps might end up looking a bit tacky no?

If you live in CA, you can get free prom dresses at The Princess Project. They give out free prom dresses to high school girls every year. This only applies to high school girls living in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and East Bay.

Interested?

wow! what are the odds?! haha oh thank you. i googled it too but i couldn't find any good ones. i found some extremely expensive too so i'll probably make it using the designs online or something.

WENJJANG your dress is really cute and pretty!

this is the one i reaaally reaally want to get.
but it is only sold on the internet..so i dont want to risk it and order it.
so hopefully i can find a similar one in a store.

for prom i want a short dress..with a tight top, and a puffy ballerina like bottom.
and i want it green..or else purple or red...i think those are the colours i look the best in. lol
hopefully i find one i like.
i cant wait for prom !!!

So I know Ross isn't exactly the place to be looking for a great bomb diggity jaw dropping dress but honestly, after looking everywhere (Westfield, Macy*s, Nordstroms, Ambiance), my mom said to just go to Ross. And she went there and got me this amazingggly cute BCBG dress. It was $30 dollars after tax and I live in CA so it's ike a 8.25% tax. It is my junior prom so I'm not about to spend a fortune and it's pretty cute.


If the picture doesn't show, it's a tube, bubble dress. There are sparkles/glitter on it. It wrinkles in the boob area and it's turquoise on top fading to silver under the chest and then fades back again to turquoise. I think it's formal enough for prom but simple enough to use it for other parties (like 15s or sweet 16s).
peachan
do you guys think this dress is suitable for prom?



I almost fell in love with this dress the moment I saw it, and I wanted to get it for my senior breakfast, but I thought it'd be too formal for breakfast, so I'm thinking maybe prom?

there's nothing wrong with shopping at Ross. they have pretty nice clothing and its cheap. the only problem is size. its hard to find sizes that will fit you because all the sizes are taken. mmh i think i'll check out Ross and then got to the mall for my dress. i like the color of your dress really pretty
