30 Prom Outfits

Long ball gowns aren’t for everybody, and they don’t need to be with gorgeous shorter options like this available. The high-low hem and the off the shoulder neckline keeps the dress interesting whilst the sumptuous, champagne colored silk fabric ensures that this is no ordinary summer dress.

If a dramatic, full-length ball gown most certainly is your style, you won’t find one with much more drama than this. The stunning sheer fabric on the floor length full skirt is classic and very romantic. The open front is tastefully done and allows the focus of the dress to be mainly on the stunning skirt.

Another shorter option here. The top layer of white lace on this dress is absolutely stunning, certainly an option for those who love a particularly feminine look. The long sleeves and high neckline also mean that the shorter skirt looks tasteful and elegant. This dress would be perfect with your hair up or down and as it’s all one color, you can easily add pastel colored accessories to lift your finished look.

Who says we have to wear a dress to prom? Not us! If dresses are just not your thang, no problem! There are plenty of other options for you to try out that are dressy, without being an actual dress. Try something like this gorgeous jumpsuit. The dark green color and the fabric are still in-keeping with a prom dress code but the trousers mean you can move around comfortably and freely.

Here’s a dress option with a difference. Why not mix up the classic prom gown look and go for a two piece top and skirt instead. Classic attire, with a little-added twist. Perfect for spring and summer proms as it’s a little cooler than a full dress. The crisp white top on this particular outfit also perfectly offsets the brighter colors in the skirt.

If you love the idea of a two piece but the skirt length is an issue, simply try a shorter skirt instead. Just make sure the top has a high neckline to balance out the short skirt. We love this particular outfit with it’s embroidered top and the matching waistband on the skirt, it’s absolutely adorable!

We love a bodycon dress, they’re super beautiful and a great way to show off your gorgeous figure. We especially love the way the lace on this particular dress is layered over the top, giving it an extra dressy element that’s perfect for this time of year.

This beaded dress is incredibly sophisticated, not to mention the intricacy of the top paired with the more simple floor length skirt is a match made in heaven. This is a really beautiful option for prom as the cut and color of the dress is absolutely timeless.

This off the shoulder gown is giving us some serious Sleeping Beauty vibes, and we love it.

Going to prom doesn’t necessarily mean you have to wear an elaborate gown.
