Picking the perfect prom outfit has always been an exciting task, and now, there are even more options to pick from for your big night. Long, formal dresses have traditionally been the way to go–and are still very much a glam choice–but they are far from the final frontier.
From two-piece sets to jumpsuits, there is a slew of ways you can look stunning and unique on your special night. We’ve put together some of our favorite non-traditional prom outfits for those who want to try something other than a classic dress.
If you want to bring some extra sparkle to the dance floor, a sequin jumpsuit is a perfect prom outfit choice. With a strapless sweetheart bodice and a high waist that tops wide pant legs, this shimmery onesie will have you feeling glamorous and comfortable–and shining, well, like a diamond on your prom night.
A vibrant red jumpsuit is sure to turn heads. From the bold, old-Hollywood-esque color to the sleek silhouette, this fit has a 100% guarantee of standing out in the crowd. The plunging v-neck and wide straps that cross over an open back make this an elegant statement piece ready for any fun that the night will throw at you.
Instead of a little black dress, try a little black jumpsuit. A strapless sweetheart neckline and asymmetrical sash detail make this one just as prom-worthy as any gown. Plus, the cropped wide-leg pants mean you can show off a killer pair of heels.
Gorgeous lace, a stunning fit, and standout style: what more could you ask for in a prom look? This bride-worthy romper has beautiful floral embroidery, a sleeveless sheer lace bodice, and a high fitted waist topping mini shorts. The showstopping dotted tulle overlay falls from the waist to a maxi hem, making for a dramatic high-low effect.
For those who want to look striking in a short piece, a glittering rainbow romper is the ultimate choice. From the multi-color sequins to the velvet sash belts, the shiny micro-pleated romper is flirty, fashionable, and well, fun. And isn’t that what prom is all about?
Step out for prom in a swingy metallic mini, without worrying about flashing your peers on the dance floor. A micro-pleated gold romper with a sexy back cutout looks glamorous and unique, and won’t show it all if you twirl!
Take the spotlight that you deserve with this stunning two-piece dress. The strapless crop top features padded cups and an exposed rose gold zipper, while the matching skirt has a high-waisted fit and a slightly flared maxi hem. Wear it as a set for prom, then swap in a top or bottom for more outfit mileage later! With its punchy coral hue and shimmery sequins, the set is ready for your magical night–and beyond.
For another chic, unexpected prom outfit option, consider a jacquard two-piece midi dress. The floral print, soft colors, and satin tie-straps are totally Bridgerton-esque, while the sleek shape, subtle metallic threading, and a sliver of midriff are unmistakably modern.
A creamy blazer with matching pants is the ultimate prom power move. Not a dress person? Suit up in a sleek set, then amp up the glam factor with sparkly extras. Or layer a sexy top underneath like a satin corset or embellished cami, then take off your blazer for an instant afterparty outfit!
