Prom Themes Can Make Prom Dresses

Prom time is here again and you are starting to search for the perfect dress. You've looked at the latest trends. You've searched the fashion magazines to see what the celebrities are wearing to their prom. You've consulted with your friends to see what ideas they have. Yet you are still in a rut. Why not use the prom theme to come up with the perfect dress?

You can use your prom theme to choose the color, cut, style or fabric of your dress. It can also help you choose accessories to complete your prom night look. There is no better way for you and your friends to look good together than to look as though the whole night was planned around you! It's as though the fact that you were wearing a red dress with heart jewelry made them choose the theme of Love is In the Air where the room is bathed in hearts and different shades of red.

Let's look at some possible examples of how you can make the prom theme and dress theme work together. Prom themes surrounding Cinderella and the Ball are always a popular theme. So, look for the glass slippers, slide on a tiara and wear a princess dress with a big skirt. We wouldn't recommend dressing as the wicked stepsisters though.

Hollywood and the red carpet are hot themes right now. Don't just look good, look like a movie star by recreating a hot celebrity look. Better yet, go vintage Hollywood. Hello Marilyn Monroe or Mae West. The paparazzi will be ready to take your picture and put you in the latest gossip column.

Music themes can be trickier, but think about what kind of mood they evoke. What colors are they using with the music them? Coordinate your dress with those colors. You don't want to appear to clash with the room. For instance, you wouldn't want to wear a purple dress if the prom theme colors are orange.

Your accessories can tie you to the theme as well. If the theme is "Night Under the Stars" wear a black dress and star earrings or a yellow broach to simulate the stars. If the theme is "By the Beach" wear seashells in your hair or decorate your bag with sea glass. It doesn't necessarily have to be all about the theme, but sometimes being subtle is what gets you noticed.

So, as you make you final decisions about your prom outfit, it is important to keep the whole night in mind. It's not just about what your friends are wearing or what the hottest celebrity trends are that matters. Your prom, the prom theme and prom outfit can be a complete package. Allow your prom theme to choose your prom dress.

Four Prom Theme Ideas

From the entrance way to the decorations surrounding the dance floor to the backdrop for the couples' pictures, prom themes help set the mood for the entire evening. Prom is a chance for seniors, and often juniors, to celebrate their last dance together, and the theme plays a large role in creating lasting memories. While some classes choose to do a vacation or party theme, others shoot for the romantic or magical.

Sandy beaches and palm trees may be the items of choice in a "tropical island" prom. Coconut drinks and blue chiffon make dancers feel as though they are in a land and sea paradise. For those returning from spring break together with high school friends, this may be an excellent way to end their year together. Others may choose to have a "Hollywood" prom that embodies all the glitz and glam of the celebrity world. Sparkling diamonds and gold throws enshroud the room, while popular music and flashing lights create a club-like atmosphere on the dance floor. This theme is an excellent choice for one last "blowout" party.

On the other hand, others may prefer a more couples' oriented, romantic setting, such as "An Evening in Paris". As the Eifel tower shines in the background, couples dine together on French pastries and walk along pathways lit by golden lanterns.

A fake moon and starts may adorn the "sky", creating the perfect atmosphere for a final date. Still others prefer fantasy themes, such as "An Enchanted Forest". Mystical looking trees and soft colors of purple, silver, and green create a feeling of being in another world. This particular theme offers a wonderful escape from the end-of-the-year frenzy of tests and good byes. However, no matter what theme is chosen, prom can be a magical evening with the friends you've grown up with.
