Getting ready for prom is a serious matter. There's so much that goes into it, from coordinating corsages with your date to deciding where to take your pictures to negotiating curfews & carpools. Not to mention, the most fundamental challenge of all: choosing your dress. Not just any dress, but the dress that you've pictured in your head for months and created countless Pinterest inspo boards of. This was such a monumental step of the prom preparation process that at my high school, the girls in my class even created a Facebook group where we each had to upload the dress we planned to wear so we could make sure no two girls showed up on prom night wearing the same dress. It was that serious (at the time — now, looking back, it's nostalgically adorable).
If you're looking for the perfect prom dress, it can understandably feel a bit overwhelming, almost as if you were searching for a needle in a haystack. There are so many shops out there carrying dresses that appeal to different aesthetics & wardrobes, but a large part of the challenge with online shopping lies in finding the perfect fit and ensuring the quality of fabric/designคำพูดจาก เว็บสล็อต777.

Let's face it: Prom is only one night, and chances are you won't find too many occasions to wear your dress again in the next few years (I still haven't worn my dress since prom night over five years ago).

You can rent a dress, such as this stunning floral embroidered gown, for a single occasion at a significantly lower price than it would have retailed.

When should I start looking for my prom dress?
Ideally, you want to start shopping for your prom dress earlier in the year if you can. While many agree that January and February are prime months for starting to browse stores for your prom dress, March is a good time to start shopping seriously. Most shops will have released their newest prom dress collections by now, and by ordering now, you'll have enough time to try on the dress once it arrives and get it tailored or order a back-up dress with enough time to spare.
What are the best places to buy a prom dress online?
While there are many shops that carry suitable prom dresses online, some shops that currently carry the trendiest and most stylish collections are Windsor, Lulus, Showpo, Rent The Runway, Revolve, Amazon, Free People, Princess Polly, Macy's, and Bloomingdale's.
Is it worth it to buy an expensive prom dress?
When you're deciding how much to spend on your prom dress, it's worth considering that you will likely not wear the dress very often after prom night. At the same time, because prom only happens once for most people, it's a special occasion that is worth splurging on (just think of all the pictures). If you want to score your dream dress without doing too much damage on your wallet, you may want to check out services like Rent The Runway.
