What to wear to prom

Graduation ball is one of the most touching and wonderful events. And every girl wants to look especially beautiful on this day. It is best to think over the details of the image long before graduation, so that everything harmoniously forms into a single whole.

For me, a young beauty is associated with a fresh flower – so delicate, clean, fragrant. Natural romantic beauty inherent in a beautiful young age. This is what you need to build on when creating an image for the prom. A frequent mistake of young ladies is the desire to look sexy, older than their age or imitate a pop singer. And often they even choose dresses that are suitable only for brides. At 17, you still do not understand how you need to look and dress, trying to imitate a beautiful classmate or a fashion blogger. Know that all girls are different and unique, and your beauty is unique, you only need to skillfully emphasize it. Mindless copying will not lead to a beautiful result. When a person blindly imitates, it means that he has no desire to find himself and understand his figure.

So, let’s begin.

The first advice will be for parents.

Let go of your thought that you will kill two birds with one stone and buy a dress for your daughter, so that, as they say, both in a feast and in the world. It doesn’t happen, either it’s a ball gown or it’s a casual dress. These two concepts cannot be confused. Stay on the losing side.
Do not follow your daughter’s lead, thinking that she is probably more versed in youth fashion. At such a young age, of course, there is a concept of fashion, but there is still no concept of the appropriateness of the outfit. Mini, corsets, bare stomach, sexy outfits, dark colors, transparency, deep necklines, floral prints are not for prom.

Mistakes when choosing and how to fix them.

1. “Opera diva”

The girl in the photo is 17 years old, but the crinoline is too lush and this color adds both age and weight. The dress looks too heavy, and at the ball the graduate should flutter like a butterfly. Leave such a dress to an opera singer.

What to replace if your girl likes tulle dresses?

Gracefully emphasizes the purity and naivete of a dress made of pastel-colored tulle, without lush crinolines, or a dress made of delicate lace, silk organza. The photo below shows examples, the dresses seem light and very delicate, in the photo, which shows long dresses to the floor, the length should be chosen shorter.

2. The image of the bride.

Graduation is not a wedding. Therefore, I think it is not worth explaining why a wedding dress is absolutely inappropriate.

3. Queen of the disco.

Tight corset dresses, you can save for going to the club. And for prom, choose a more modest outfit. The golden rule – if you want to open your legs, close the neckline. Or vice versa. And the second golden rule between the girl and the dress should be the distance. This applies to all ages.

What to replace if you want a short dress?

Take a closer look at the delicate airy models, you can find such dresses from the brand Redvalentino, Giambattista Valli, Giamba. Where extravagant length is permeated with romanticism, from that dress looks elegant and immaculate. But still, the ideal length for graduation will be just below the knee or midi.

4. Hollywood star.

Red carpet dresses are often only suitable for the red carpet. Or for leading grandiose concerts. Therefore, school graduates should not follow the advice of “experts” – look at the dresses of Hollywood stars. Firstly, most celebrities are not 17 years old, but these are already adult women, whose outfits are not at all suitable for a young age. Also among these dresses can be identified a lot of outrageous and tasteless. Outrageous plays into the hands of popularity for the stars.

5. Princess of the East.

I found these photos in the article, what to wear to graduation. Dresses in this style, richly decorated with stones, greatly age young girls. Such outfits can be seen on girls in Dagestan, Bukhara and Samarkand. These dresses can be called status, rich and demonstrating luxury. Is it necessary to demonstrate at the school ball?

6. Floral print.

A floral print is inappropriate, both in a large flower and in a small one. Dresses as in the photo in a large flower with a maxi length are acceptable if your prom takes place in tropical countries, in a restaurant on the seashore, where a long dress in flowers is quite appropriate.

And short dresses in flowers are more suitable for romantic dates. But not for evening wear.

What to replace?

For a ball gown, separate floral applications, elements and textures are appropriate.

7. The image of a seductive woman.

This is a favorite image of Russian young ladies, you can say a hit! Of course, the outfits are very feminine and emphasize the forms, but if you have no intention of looking 10 years older than your age at the prom and seducing your classmate, then you should not choose such elaborate outfits. Prom is usually a lot of competitions and dances, so squeezing the movement is useless. In addition to the fact that a complex cut will add age, it will be impossible to move comfortably in such a dress.

The aforementioned image of a Hollywood star can also be attributed to the image of a seductive woman. You will still have a chance and not one to look like a fatal temptress, but a young lady in light pastel-colored dresses almost never again. Use this chance. All shades of lilac, pale pink, powdery, blue, a shade of jade are wonderful colors for a young lady of 17 years old. Choose light and flowy fabrics instead of heavy suits.
