How To Find Your Best Short Prom Dresses


Today most girls would rather to wear short prom dresses, instead of long gowns, which were the rage sometime back. Short gowns were generally not considered ‘formal’ attire, specifically for situations, including like proms, weddings, gala dinners, balls and the like. However, fashion rules possess come to be more relaxed in the last few decades, and nowadays, the “little black dress” (LBD) for formal and social occasions, is a must-have in any girl or woman’s wardrobe! However, even though short prom dresses are in, it is necessary to take into account that not all people may carry off the look. Some suggestions on putting on a short attire on the prom night are listed below: 



1 Not all girls are built identical and there is no standard “short” dress that will fit all and look good!
2The factors which have to be considered are height, weight, body form and type, plus proportions such as bust to waist, waist to hips, upper body to a lower body, etc.

3 Girls with an hourglass figure can wear any designs and get away with it, given that this is considered to be the ‘ideal feminine figure. However, halter-style gowns are the best alternative if you get an hourglass shape.
4 If you have an athletic build or a beautiful skinny frame with long legs, you can in no way go wrong with any sort of short cocktail gowns. Sleeveless or spaghetti straps dresses are an excellent choice.

5 Pear-shaped maidens will look ideal in A-line or baby doll dresses– fitted at the top and flowing below the waistline.

6 Black is the common favorite choice, and one can never go wrong with an LBD. Otherwise, choose your short prom gown in colours which accent your skin tone

7 Hemlines are just as necessary– tall young girls with athletic build can carry off dresses with hemlines above the knees, but if you are height-challenged or have short, stubby legs, an above-the-knee hemline will do you no fantastic.


8 Soft fabrics including satin or silk are great for short dresses for prom. However, you may also experiment with airy fabrics such as chiffons in pastel colors.

9 Accessorize your short dress using the perfect shoes, makeup, jewelry and handbags. You will feel and look luxurious in what you’re donning, so skip the stilettos or high heels if you cannot manage walking in them.

10 Stay away from short gowns with lots of embellishments such as sequins, beads, and so on. And if you must have frills and ruffles, keep them short and to the bare minimum. Ruffles are a no-no if you are plus-sized or have a heavy upper body or short, stubby legs.

11Plan and choose your prom gown well in advance, as a last minute rushes mean you might end up making the improper decisions or the gown you were yearning for is no longer available!

12 Search for expert advice from shop personnel or close family and friends who will never control you wrong!


13If you have the time, money and patience, get your short prom gown made to order, or make it yourself if you’re talented with a sewing machine.

Just go along with the points listed above and your prom preparations will flow perfectly without any hiccups!
