The time to get your first designer prom dress has finally come. , there are some fundamental things to bear in mind. . You do not want a thin chiffon costume if it is likely to be cold, and you don’t want to be wearing velvet if very hot. Which emphasises the most essential thing. Wear something you are comfortable in.

Next, style. This should flatter your figure and enhance your personality. Choose something fussy if you like being the center of attention, have an outgoing personality, or love meeting people. Don’t be too outrageous, remember, pictures of this night are going to follow you through your life. You don’t want your future to be haunted by those photographs. Conversely choose something understated and elegant, if you are a shy type. Choose a style in which you can be comfortable.

When choosing a style for your formal prom dress, you should also look carefully and honestly at your figure. Very few of us have a perfect figure, most have at least a few pounds somewhere that they wish they didn’t have. Don’t assume that you can reduce your weight by prom night - That is always unlikely to happen. Instead, find a dress which will compliment your assets and hide those extra inches. If you are on the heavy side, don’t wear tight clothes, and don’t wear frills and flounces, they do not hide, they only draw attention to your imperfections. Do not wear a tight or very low cut costume if you are large on top, it will do you no favours. The edict ‘If you have it - flaunt it’ does not apply on prom night and in the end will probably only embarrass you. You want to look glamorous and elegant on this special night.One other thing, make sure the stripes go the best way if you fancy a striped material. Crosswise stripes tend to make you look shorter and fatter, Upright stripes tend to make you look taller and thinner. Stripes can be a good way of hiding the fact that your hips are large or that you are challenged in the bust department.

Color is very significant. It should look good on you and heighten your skin tone. If you have a very pale complexion, avoid Royal blue, it will make you look even more pale. Also avoid pale colors, they will look insipid and you will fade into the background, not what you want to do on this very special evening. You may look good in deep reds pinks or greens. If you have a favorite color, try it. Pick out the color that best suits you.If you are a redhead, avoid oranges and reds, but greens shoulkd look really good on you.Wearing a dress the same color as your eyes can really work well.

Keep your options open as you select your costume. Try everything, before you dismiss it. The most crucial thing, though is that you should enjoy wearing your prom dress.You need to feel special on your special night If you don’t, try something else.
