Today most girls want to wear short prom dresses to the prom, instead of long gowns, which were the rage sometime back. Short dresses were most often not considered ‘formal’ attire, especially for parties such as like proms, weddings, gala dinners, balls and the like. However, fashion rules possessturn out to be more satisfied in the last few decades, and today, the “little black dress” (LBD) for formal and social occasions, is a must-have in any girl or woman’s wardrobe! However, even though short prom gowns are in, it is important to keep in mind that not everybody could carry off the look. Some instructions on donning a short dress on the prom night are listed below:
1 Not all girls are built identical and there is no standard “short” dress that will fit all and look good!
2 the factors which might want to be considered are height, weight, body style and type, plus proportions such as bust to waist, waist to hips, upper body to the lower body, etc.
3 Girls having an hourglass figure can wear any types and get away with it, given that this is thought of as to be the ‘ideal feminine figure. However, halter-style dresses are the greatest alternative if you have an hourglass shape.
4 If you have an athletic build or a naturally skinny frame with long legs, you can in no way go wrong with any types of formal dress. Sleeveless or spaghetti straps dresses are a fantastic choice.
5 Pear-shaped maidens will look finest in A-line or baby doll dresses– fitted at the top and following below the waistline.
6 Blacks are the universal fashionable choice, and one can never go wrong with an LBD. Otherwise, select your short prom gown in colors, which flatter your skin tone.
7 Hemlines are just as important– tall young ladies with athletic build can carry off the gown with hemlines above the knees, but if you are height-challenged or have short, stubby legs, an above-the-knee hemline will do you know perfect.
8 Soft fabrics such as satin or silk are ideally suited for short dresses, although you will be able to also experiment with airy materials such as chiffons in pastel colors.
9 Accessorize your short gown using the most suitable shoes, makeup, jewelry and handbags. You could feel and look suitable in what you’re donning, so skip the stilettos or high heels if you are not able to manage walking in them.
10 Keep away from short dresses with a large number of accessories such as sequins, beads, and so on. And if you must have frills and ruffles, keep them short and to the bare minimum. Ruffles are a no-no if you are plus-sized or have a heavy upper body or short, stubby legs.
11 Plan and select your prom dress well in advance, as a last minute rushes to mean you might end up making the bad choices or the gown you were yearning for is no longer available!
12 look for expert advice from store personnel or close family and friends who will never steer you wrong!
13 If you have the time, money and patience, get your short dress made to order, or make it yourself if you’re talented with a sewing machine.
Just keep in mind the recommendations listed above and your prom preparations will flow swimmingly without. Any hiccups!
