And prom would be nothing without the fashion<\/a>–it\u2019s basically the high school version of the Met Gala. Especially if it\u2019s your senior year, it\u2019s your last big event before graduating: You\u2019ll want to make an unforgettable impression. But with today\u2019s unlimited options, it can feel overwhelming trying to find an affordable prom dress.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

High Shine<\/h2>\n
\"burgundy
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Evenings of Elegance Burgundy Sequin Lace-Up Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Your future\u2019s looking bright, and you should have a dress<\/a> that reflects that. Dresses with a ton of shine are especially hot right now: Think solid sequins<\/a>, metallic fabrics, and rhinestones. Go big this year; you deserve it!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bustier Dresses<\/h2>\n
\"ivory
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Most Beautiful Day Ivory Multi Floral Print Organza Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u00a0Dresses with details like bustier bodices and boning are so romantic and flirty. This trend shows off the sultry side of your personality and<\/em> offers structure up top for those who prefer a little extra shape!<\/span><\/p>\n

Dramatic Trains<\/h2>\n
\"yellow
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Perfectly Classy Yellow Satin Strappy Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Dresses with trainss are the moment; they\u2019re sexy, elegant, and perfect for those over-the-shoulder poses (the drama!). If you\u2019re looking to accentuate your back, look for dresses that are backless<\/a> or low-cut. For those looking to highlight your <\/span>other <\/span><\/i>rear feature, amp up the back view with ruching. It\u2019s super flattering and really emphasizes your, er, assets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

High Slits<\/h2>\n
\"green
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Heavenly Hues Forest Green Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Want to really make an impression this year? Of course, you do. Show off some leg by rocking a maxi<\/a> dress with a high slit. It adds a super glamorous effect to your look–and gives you an opportunity to show off those heels<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n

Bold Color<\/h2>\n
\"hot
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Got the Glam Pink Pleated Cutout Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Your red carpet moment calls for a prom dress that can’t be missed. Dress up a bright<\/a> look even more by adding a piece of statement jewelry<\/a>, or keep it simple with a clutch<\/a> and a sleek pair of stilettos.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tulle<\/h2>\n
\"black
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Tulle-y Amazing Black Tulle Sleeveless Bustier Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Looking for a dreamy, unique prom look? A tulle dress is as ethereal as it gets. Channel your inner royal in layers of tulle–and that doesn’t necessarily mean a full, princess-style ball skirt, either. Dancing queens, take note: You will not<\/em> be able to resist the urge to twirl.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jumpsuits<\/h2>\n
\"navy
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Look of Luxe Navy Blue Satin Asymmetrical Wide-Leg Jumpsuit<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Why limit yourself to dresses? A fancy onesie means you get the statement effect of a gown with the confident vibe of a power suit. Jumpsuits<\/a> can be dressed up or down with the addition of a few simple accessories, and they\u2019re easy to move around (and dance) in. Plus, you\u2019ll look amazing in all of your photos.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rhinestones<\/h2>\n
\"white
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Forever Falling For You White Rhinestone Mermaid Maxi Dress<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cutout<\/a> details add a little glamour to any prom look. From geometric trim to sparkly straps to rhinestone fringe, you can get your hit of shimmer in all sorts of ways. The result: a prom trend that allows you to shine on your terms.<\/span><\/p>\n
