Vintage style dresses is the perfect prom dress

By Sisi Tsoi


When it comes to attending your prom, it is the biggest day of your tender age. Everyone wants to stand out and look different. You can of course choose the standard shop bought dress, which will set you back around $300-$400 mark. Keep in mind, however, that you will run the risk of clashing with someone else in the same dress. Of course a lot of us cannot afford couture to ensure we are getting the one of a kind result that will make us the centre of attention. Going vintage or vintage style comes to mind as the perfect solution, but it is not without its minefields.

The idea of 'vintage' will not be a scary one to many of us. Once linked to undesirable and smelly bits of tat left in a charity shop, it is now thought of as an awesome option to revitalize your fashion credit.

There are many sources, from vintage shops and browsing eBay, to scouring the high street. With a bit of imagination, you certainly won't need to break the bank when it comes to shopping for your perfect vintage style prom dress. Although some of us might still think dresses in vintage style are dangerously close to the realm of fancy dress, let us prove to you otherwise. First of all let's begin with the flapper roaring 20s.

Do you remember the days when Drew Barrymore was fun and not corporate? She dressed in stunning beaded dresses, with mesh overlays and cascading sheer layers, for the classic 20s Siren look. Her hair was crimped and coiffed to elegance. There are numerous films for us to get into the emotion, including the recently hyped Great Gatsby. With its rainbow of beaded silk dresses, those carefree ladies definitely illustrate us the best way to have a great time. A classic 20s dress is a straight up and down number, mostly constructed of silk and lots of beading. A 'real' vintage 20s dress may well cost you $500, and also on the majority of the beading is extremely dainty because of the age of the gown. But there are plenty of choices out there in highstreet shops that match the style requirements. Should you check out the following dress, it truly is classic 20s shape, with black overlay netting textile, covered in beads, and also is included with a slip dress. Primarily suitable for girls with a boyish figure, a lover of beaded and luxurious comfort and ease will carry this dress with amazing style.

Accessorize yourself with some mary-jane heels or even a piano fringe shawl and we guarantee you will be the belle of the ball.
