The past two years have been very challenging as the world has still been dealing with COVID. Along with that, juniors and seniors haven’t been able to go to prom. Prom is now able to happen this year because of the cautious procedures we took this year. Dress ideas probably didn’t come to mind though, since lots of people were unaware if prom was going to happen this year. Here are different ideas or inspiration that can be taken into account for dress shopping. 

     Different styles from different times like for example, the 90s, are back in style. The simple, spaghetti strapped, maxi, short, or knee length dresses are back on the scene. Gen Z has been channeling nostalgic energy recently and there’s been a huge boom on social media with people wearing 90’s inspired clothing.

     Bodycon dresses are some of the most common dresses worn at prom. If you are not looking for anything too big or puffy, bodycon dresses are the way to go. If the worry is that the bodycon dress will look boring, don’t even worry about that as there are tons of bodycon dresses that aren’t simple. These dresses can have detailing such as bright colors, sequin, sparkles, flowers, and even lace. 

     Cutout dresses can be something worn like the cutout dress Zendaya wore in Netflix’s ‘Malcolm and Marie.’ Don’t worry about feeling too exposed, lots of cutouts on dresses you find are minor. They could be small, mid, or big and could go on any part of the dress preferred. Cutouts on dresses could be on any dress you find like the bodycon, flowy, or puffy dresses. 

     These were a few ideas to get the search for that special prom dress journey started. The rest is all in your hands now, just make sure to check the guidelines for prom dresses so that you don’t violate the dress code.
