Prom is a huge event on any social calendar and picking the right outfit is no easy endeavour. With the endless possibilities – different styles, fabrics, colours and textures, it seems almost easier to skip the event all together but that’s not an option! It’s a once in a lifetime experience so for all the girls out there stressing about which dress would be the perfect one, here are some great inspirations!
Sequin Stunner
KAREN MILLEN Sequin Midi Dress S$979
Prom night is one of the few occasions that you can shimmer to your heart’s content and no one can fault you for it. At the same time, you want to do it in the classiest way. Opting for a green delicate sequin piece (instead of the black one you probably had in mind) is going to make you satisfy your shimmer prom dreams while keep you looking youthful yet sophisticated.
Memorable Metallics
WAREHOUSE Metallic Rainbow Stripe Dress S$119
WAREHOUSE Foil Pleated Midi Dress S$199
Another amazing alternative to something with shimmer would be to explore metallic fabric. Instead of a glittered overkill princess gown, the metallic rainbow and pleated detail on these babies are going to catch the lights in the ballroom and make you want to dance all night long. WAREHOUSE Foil Pleated Midi Dress is also finished with an asymmetric hem, it’s hands-down a memorable metallic piece.
WAREHOUSE Metallic Spot Midi Dress S$189
