Stylin’ Junior Formal Dresses

There is no right or wrong style of dress to wear to a prom or other formal event. Young women can choose short and flirty or long and elegant, depending upon their taste. Dress designers literally have hundreds of dresses to rent or buy in retail dress shops and online stores. Popular design houses include:

Popular Dress Styles

Popular formal dress styles are flounced skirts; junior formal dresses with plenty of beading and rhinestones, low-cut backs and strapless gowns. Fabrics in demand include taffeta and silks, as well as soft and subtle tropical prints. If you don’t want the weight of a heavily beaded gown but you want the image of lots of bling, choose gold, silver, copper or bronze colored fabrics for your dress.

What to Wear Underneath the Gown

What you wear under your formal dress is just as important as the dress itself. Creating a sleek and elegant look can’t be accomplished with everyday undergarments. Luckily, shopping for these magical garments isn’t difficult, and they are often sold at your local formal dress shop or they can be found online. The people selling formal dresses want you to look your best; so don’t be afraid to ask what type of undergarments work best under a particular gown.

Accessorize Your Outfit

The other important pieces of your outfit are the jewelry, shoes and a purse. Have your shoes and purse dyed to match your outfit at many bridal stores or other formalwear stores. Be sure to have this done several weeks before the big event since these businesses are very busy during the formal season.

Hi Laura, This particular photo is stock photography- I don't know anything about this dress. The green skirt the model is showing, however, is really the slip/crinolines underneath the skirt.
