Today we wanted to offer some tips for finding the perfect prom dress for you. Read on for some advice!

 

 

Choosing Your Color

                                                                                                                                   

                                                                     

 

Prom dresses come in all different shades, and the choice you make fully depends on what your personal preferences are! Remember that the most important thing to keep in mind is to find a shade that you feel beautiful and comfortable in. While we love for our customers to step outside of the box and try something new, don’t feel pressured to try a bold color if you aren’t fully comfortable in it.

That said, there are some tips we can offer for finding a color that best suits you! Girls with dark hair look particularly beautiful in reds and blues, while girls with red hair look stunning in green and purples. Blondes can opt for pretty pastels or bold colors as well! At the end of the day, find a color that makes you feel like yourself, but amplified and even more beautiful!

 

 

Choosing Your Style

 

      

 

Choosing the right style for your prom dress is important, and it’s helpful to keep a few things in mind when deciding. Do you plan on dancing the night away? If so, you might want something that allows for more movement, doesn’t drag on the ground, and is styled with supportive straps. If you want to make a statement with your gown and aren’t as concerned with dancing, a mermaid silhouette or something more form fitting would be beautiful! And keep in mind what you want to emphasize - if you love your shoulders, opt for a strapless gown! If you want to show off your long legs, try a shorter dress!

Ultimately, we want our customers to leave with a prom dress that makes them feel as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside. If you’re ready to find your dream prom gown, book an appointment with us today at Lasting Impressions in Columbus, GA!
