Would this look okay for a prom dress? Sorry for the terrible quality, my camera isn't cooperating with me so i just used webcam >.> and excuse my messy background ^^;

i don't think it's prom material, looks like a like someone said before, cocktail dress.

my dress finally came yay!


i was wondering what kind of makeup would look good with this color tho.. maybe a gold-ish smoky eye??
_ATELIER
^ oohh gorgeous dress, i love the bold red.
smoky eye is probably the safest way to go, but don't over do it, make it simple.
a bit of shimmer/eyeliner/lashes..

and is it also bad for your date to see your dress before prom? or does it not matter. ive been thinking that your date shouldnt but now idk ..

if anyone's interested, this dress is for sale in my shop [:


UGH. One of the dresses I hate the most. I used to think this dress was ok until I saw like a million people posting they got it and I've seen this one at prom so much that I just hate it now. LOL.

Anyways, I have an idea of what I want for mines, it's only a matter of getting it. Some of the dresses posted here are really nice but some are so..I don't know..common? I guess? I've seen so many of the same ones posted here and in the old thread and in stores that I'm getting sick of most of the designs. I'm really picky. Personally, I hate that cake layer thing that seems to be showing up so much and I don't like a ton of ruffles and I just don't like those dresses that look like strapless ones but have a sheer halter thing going on. Oh well, that's enough of that. smile.gif

I bought this dress a few days ago for $36 (60% off, originally $90). Is it too wedding-dress like? T_T It's white/ivory with gold sparkles all over it. I've been looking at dresses for a while, and I've always avoided white because I don't want it to be too awkward, but I couldn't resist buying this dress because of the price.
CorrectionYourWrongImRight
^ far from it. acutally its kinda too...casual i assume. O_O looks it anyways. iono. it seems good for prom tho smile.gif
aliceee
ok so I'm a little old for this thread since my prom was last year... but I lovelovelove dresses tongue.gif

I adore the whole tuxedo inspired look, so elegant and simple





...and you can wear it over and over again unlike my prom dress which I will probably never wear for the 2nd time tongue2.gif

Little Miss Snackwrap
Where do they sell dresses that can fit really petite girls?? Like any particular stores/brands?
I'm kind of lazy so I don't want to go out of my way to get a dress altered if I don't have to.. tongue.gif

i don't see why it should matter. might as well wear your dress as much as you can since you're spending so much on a prom dress. :]

well if you want to "wow" your date on the day of prom when he sees u in your dress then yeah you shouldn't let him see it. otherwise then it's fine. it's not a taboo.

i really should be doing homework right now but i'm way too distracted thinking about prom.

i haven't made my dress yet and i don't know if i'll ever have time to make it. gahh it's just coming by so quickly.

anyway, my biggest dilemma is the ride situation. my friends and i were planning on going together but we all can't get rides. the place is so far away, almost 50 miles (1 hr. drive.) i was thinking about getting sedan or a small limo for the four of us but the price thing also kills. has anyone ever rented a limo/towncar before? i don't know how those hourly rates work. do they just sit there for four hours until the dance is over and then drive you to wherever you want to go afterwards?

please help! huh.gif
f0reveralways
^ most people have their limos wait i think. some people might rent two separate limos (one to drop off, one to pick up) but i don't know if that really works b/c there's usually a minimum # of hours you have to rent it.
shut up n smile
RIDES!?
talk about rides! my freakin school is making everybody go on a bus to get there and back. if your late for the rides then you dont go at ALL! there will be two bus that is leaving. so we have to be early if we wanna get good tables and stuff. How lame is that. we cant drive ourself there. its pretty far like say about 45-1hour away, but i would rather drive to get there and back. what if we get bored and want to leave ya know? but having the bus take us we cant leave at all unless we ask someone to pick us up and thats a no. our school is sooo gayyyy!

Hey my prom was last Saturday and overall I had an okay time. I was stuck at Ulta for 3 hours because they could not do the hairstyle that I wanted for prom. I then settled for a different hairstyle, rushed home and arrived an hour late to prom. However, I was pleased with my dress because no one was wearing the color or had a similar style (It was replicated from the green dress Beyonce wore). biggrin.gif

Linh_Linh
^ aww nice dress and that's a really really pretty color. however, it doesn't go with your skin tone. what a cute picture though

Well, I tried making my own prom dress and it didn't turn out so well. The dress didn't look like the pattern, plus my body wasn't really meant for that dress. Which made me mad, but it's okay, I bought a dress that was better. Plus just make sure you know what you are doing and how long it's going to take, you don't want to finish the night before because you may have to do some more alterations. And as for the ride situation, I suggest you don't get the limo unless you and your friends are 100% sure you are going together. Because I had this problem with my friends. They couldn't decide and that made me frustrated. Plus make sure you all are willing to go everywhere together, you don't want to have to drop one couple here and the other there, that's just too much. My other friends decide to hang out together before prom and take pictures but one couple showed up 2 hours late, I'm so glad I didn't go with them. Group of friends can be fun but it can also be a hassle. But I checked the rates and it wasn't hourly but you should the yellow pages. Good luck.

mm..its hard to tell which ones better since i don't know how dresses will look on you.
the long one is pretty though but if you don't like the long one, you should go ahead with short one?
since its your prom! be happy with your choice.


now for my question, does yellow look good on pale skin? fair skin? i'm planning to wear yellow...
i dunno if it looks great on the pale skin? any feedback will be appreciated!

Would it be stupid to spend alot of money on a prom dress when you're only a junior (but probably might not go to prom as asenior) ? like 100+.

I actually really liked how the dress went with my skin, of course it doesn't complement it as much as white and pink, but this color is definitely added to my list.

At my prom there were a lot of girl wearing casual and homecoming dresses, but with the right makeup and hair they totally pulled it off as "prom material;" even better than some girls who spent a lot of money. So girls you don't have to spend that much for a dress to look gorgeous in it. happy.gif
