A perfect prom evening also includes the perfect dress. When choosing, it is important that it fits your body type and emphasizes your figure advantageously. Cut, materials and length play an important role. Today we will give you a few examples and tips about prom dress styles and colors that would help you make the best decision.
What do you want to emphasize – legs or cleavage? If you especially want to show off a lot of leg, it's best to wear a short dress to the final party. Short prom dresses should only end just above the knee. It can't be shorter. Long dresses, on the other hand, always look magical and can hide problem areas such as the hips or buttocks. Floor-length dresses are ideal if a woman doesn't want to highlight her legs, but rather her cleavage. Also pay attention to the length here, because stumbling is not stylish either.
Knee-length dresseslook girly, but still elegant and also bring a touch of vintage charm. They cover enough leg and are also suitable for overweight women. They also solve the problem of riding up when walking and sitting that mini dresses can cause their wearers.
Asymmetrical dress models have been an integral part of fashion for several years and guarantee a great appearance.
The one shoulder prom dress lacks the straight lines of conventional dresses because this model only has one strap. The cut does not emphasize the décolleté, but rather the nape and neck area. Different fabrics and colors can further emphasize the asymmetry of the dress.
Show more leg at the front, cut long at the back. The mullet dress combines the elegance of the long ball gown with the lightness of the cocktail dress. Great idea for women with beautiful legs!
Two-piece dress models are a nice change from traditional dresses and are particularly popular at the moment. If you want to draw attention to your waist and slim figure, you can opt for a two-piece ensemble. Two-piece dresses have many advantages: the skirt and top can be of different sizes, the tops can be designed differently and the individual pieces can be combined in many ways.
Backless prom dresses are an exciting alternative if you want to show off another beautiful part of your body (not leg or cleavage). Such a dress is particularly suitable for women with a small bust.
Strapless dresses emphasize the neck, shoulders and décolleté and radiate a lot of glamor. The classic heart neckline is a real eye-catcher. However, if the dress doesn't fit properly, it can easily slip while dancing and cause you a lot of trouble.
A figure-hugging dress is only suitable for slim, slim women because it doesn't hide anything and small padding is particularly noticeable. But make sure that it should not be too tight and that it should not restrict your movements.
An ombre dress can draw attention to the skirt or top and in this way conceal certain problem areas. Brighter at the top than at the bottom would be perfect if you want the skirt to be the highlight of the ensemble.
Lace looks romantic, noble and timelessly beautiful. The mesh fabric decorated with lace is very popular, providing elegant transparency on the back, décolleté or skirt.
Floral patterns are perfect for spring and prom season. Depending on the flowers depicted, the model can appear delicate and girly or wild and exotic.
If you like something really eye-catching, you can use glitter. A glitter trim gives the dress the desired glamor finish. Fully embroidered or just emphasizing the small details like waist, the choice is up to you.
Black is classic, makes you slim, always looks elegant and is suitable for every occasion. However, an all-black dress might seem a bit boring and ordinary. A net approach on both sides, embroidery or stone trimmings on the top can make it more spectacular.
Black also goes perfectly with red and the combination looks really seductive.
Women with light skin and dark hair, who belong to the winter type, often have a difficult time choosing the right color for their ball gown. That's why we'll show you a few examples of colors that emphasize the winter woman's skin and don't make her appear pale.
Black as ebony, white as snow and… red as blood? Yes why not. But not bright red, but muted red tones like wine red. The winter type should avoid warm colors and muted pastels, but royal blue, petrol and purple would be optimal. When it comes to yellow, people argue – it depends on the shade of yellow.
The spring type is delicate and warm and should avoid dark colors. But lilac, salmon, mint, peach and rose are perfect!
