It’s that time again… Prom season is upon us!!! It’s been a long journey, but this year it is back on so it’s time to say yes to the prom dress!
Prom is one of the most important milestones in your life and the pictures will be on the wall for years to come. That’s why your Prom dress must be right for you. So, in order to help you on your exciting journey, we’re going to share 5 things to consider in order to find the perfect Prom dress.
1. What you might like in a picture might not be your favourite when it’s on
We see this all the time! Somebody comes in and they’re sure that they know exactly what kind of Prom dress they want. Then, once they’ve tried on a variety of dresses, they end up going for something completely different! That’s why it’s so important to keep an open mind and try on a range of Prom dresses. The best way to do this is to book a personal shopping appointment at a Prom dress boutique where you’ll get the chance to find the perfect dress. Click here to book a personal shopping appointment!
2. Use belts or jewels to accentuate your waist
Accentuating your favourite features of your body is a great way to feel super confident in your Prom dress. A popular choice is the use of belts or jewels on the Prom dress in order to accentuate your waist. This will help add shape to your dress and bring the ultimate wow-factor!
3. Utilise the hemline for extra wow factor
Whether it’s a long or short Prom dress, the hemline is definitely something you can make the most of! Sequins or lace can be used to highlight the shape of the dress and the hemline in particular. This kind of style is often found on longer dresses that have a slight train in order to emphasise the dress.
4. Use the neckline to enhance your favourite features
Dresses come in all different shapes and sizes and something that changes a lot is the neckline. There a variety of different neckline styles including sweetheart, v neck, scoop, asymmetric… the list goes on! These different styles can be used to enhance your favourite features. For example, if one of your favourite features is your decolletage and lower neck then a sweetheart neckline may look best. However, if you’d rather cover up a bit more a V neck could be the one for you!
5. Consider sleeves or no sleeves
Many people assume that Prom dresses don’t have sleeves, however, it is an option! Puffy sleeves are a current trend that is resurfacing and it’s definitely an option when it comes to Prom dresses. Alternatively, you could opt for simple, tight-fitting sleeves
