What are the best dress styles in fashion?<\/h2>\n

Our team is forecasting a few fabulous trends for prom 2021. Remember these insider tips as you shop for your dress, gown, or jumpsuit for prom, homecoming, or another formal special occasion.<\/p>\n

Sparkles and Sequins<\/h3>\n

Sparkles and sequins will shine in the spotlight for prom and homecoming. Sequined prom dresses are fun, flashy, festive, and embellish any silhouette they adorn. If you\u2019re looking for minimalism, then you\u2019ll want to skip the sequins. But if you like sensation and maximum glam, sequins or glitter are the way to go. They\u2019re eye-catching whether you choose to have a fully sequined evening gown or just a few embellishments to compliment the pattern of the dress.<\/p>\n

Here are some of our favorite sequined evening dresses we have in store:<\/p>\n

Prom Jumpsuits<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a fashionable, flattering look we recommend a prom jumpsuit.<\/p>\n

Jumpsuits have been IN the last few years and rightfully so. They can be dressed up or dressed down; they\u2019re comfortable and practical – these are just a few reasons why everyone loves a good jumpsuit! Plus, it\u2019s a lot easier to dance in. Jumpsuits range in styles from wide-legged boho 70\u2019s vibe to a modern slim cut look. Due to the long straight lines of the silhouette, typically the jumpsuit prom dress creates a sleek, elongated look for the wearer.<\/p>\n

Formal jumpsuits are also a great option for the prom-goer who doesn\u2019t want to wear a dress, or for non-binary folks. So if you\u2019re looking for a non-binary outfit, a formal jumpsuit for prom is a suitable option.<\/p>\n

You can find dozens of glamorous formal jumpsuits for special occasions here in the prom section of our website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thigh-high Slits<\/h3>\n

Thigh-high slits are bold and daring and expose much of the leg. For a formal event, like prom, homecoming, or another special occasion, an evening gown with a thigh-high slit is acceptable in most cases. A long formal gown with a higher neckline is the perfect balance to a high slit skirt. We love the look of a fitted formal gown with a thigh-high slit and one-shoulder neckline – it\u2019s elegant, flattering, and sassy.<\/p>\n

Wearing a prom dress with a slit is sexy and feminine. If you\u2019d like to reveal a little skin but aren\u2019t comfortable with a lot showing, opt for some of the lovely options with shorter slits in our prom collection.<\/p>\n

2-piece Prom Dresses<\/h3>\n

Still in style and still cute, two-piece prom dresses are typically comprised of a long or short skirt and a crop top. These have been in for a few years now, and we’re confident they’ll stick around for a while longer. 2-piece formal gowns are youthful and unconventional. For extra style points, consider getting multiple two-piece party dresses so you can mix-and-match for different events!<\/p>\n

Short Prom Dresses<\/h3>\n

Short party dresses are a cute, modern alternative to the traditional long prom gown. It’s also a lot easier to dance and have fun in a short prom dress! And, if you live in a warmer climate, it could be a gamechanger on prom night if you’re worried about getting sweaty.<\/p>\n

What color prom dress should I wear?<\/h2>\n

When it comes to picking the color of your evening dress, there are two things to keep in mind. First: what colors do I love? Then, what colors compliment my skin tone? If you\u2019re still not sure, here\u2019s our expert advice.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to go wrong with classic colors like red, royal blue, black, and navy because these colors are timeless. Red is alluring with a wow-factor that some of the other classic colors don\u2019t have. Navy and black are appropriate for a variety of formal and semi-formal events, so if you would like to wear your prom dress for other special events these colors are a safe choice.<\/p>\n

In 2021, expect to see light pastel formal gowns, such as lilac, lavender, baby blue, and light yellow, as well as bright colors like hot pink.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As you shop our online prom dress store, you\u2019ll find a selection of designer formal gowns across the color spectrum, including green, champagne, pink, purple, burgundy, and nude.<\/p>\n

If you want to feel bold, daring, and bright, then red, hot pink, and bright blue are eye-catching choices. For something more subdued and neutral, a champagne or rose gold prom gown are stunning options. Patterned long formal dresses are a fun choice if you like color and playfulness.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Depending on your personal preference, skin tone, and dress code, wear the colors that will exude whatever you want to feel. This is your special day, after all!<\/p>\n
