Prom is your final school dance and a step closer to graduation, preparing for prom is full of nostalgia, in-decisions, and nerve reck. Yet when it all boils down it’s all worth it. Preparing for prom could be easy, or hard for you depending on what kind of person you are. The biggest thing that every one stresses over is what to wear, especially girls since their wardrobe consists more then just a black on white tuxedo. Choosing your prom dress is very decisive so here’s a checklist that will help set you on the right track.
Perfect Prom Checklist
There are six weeks before prom: picking out the perfect prom dress
_ Things to take in mind when picking your prom dress.
keep in mind what people are wearing this year. A few examples of what’s in this year are fitted shapes with striking colors and delicate embroidery. Curvy dresses girded with structured undergarments will trumpet your femininity, while soft fabrics…silk and chiffon overlays, lace bordering and beaded hemlines…will announce your elegance. Necklines tend to be straight across, with or without straps. Backs that are low cut with one strap per side are center stage. A-lines with floor length skirts are most popular.
* Also remember to pick a figure faltering dress, a dress that does not complement your figure is like wearing a lamp shade as a dress. This is very important please keep in mind.
* Another thing dresses which have cuts and slits in unflattering places and which expose too much cleavage are out. Romantic soft flowing fabrics are more the fashion at the moment. Don’t over do it with your dress keep glitter at a minimum and any thing that seems like too much or too harsh.
* Although having the perfect prom dress is a long awaited fantasy, choose something that reflects your personality.
Next important thing is your hair.
* Pick a hair style that suits your dress theme.
* If wearing a heavy jeweled neckless, style your hear in an elegant up-do.
_Four weeks before Prom
*Make any nail appointments and Salon appointments ahead of time (Do not leave this for the last minute unless you want to do your own nails and hair)
* If you have already picked out your dress try it on again and see if any alterations are needed take care of this now so that you don’t have to worry about it later.
* The worst thing at prom is getting blisters on your feet. So break into your newly bought prom shoes. This will help you get use to them and feel more comfortable wearing them.
The most important thing to remember is to feel comfortable with what you are wearing, whether you choose the classic look, with a long flowy prom dress, or the sweet and sexy look. Prom night is your night, and it’s a night you’ll always remember, so make it worth while!!!
