About Prom Dress

A prom dress is a formal dress usually purchased from a specialty dress shop, a department store, or over the internet. Designers for prom dresses usually have a new line of dresses each prom season that coincide with the latest fashion trends in formal wear. Formal dresses, or just about any clothing item you will only wear once, maybe twice in a lifetime will almost always be expensive.

If your cost conscious, and who isn't these days, it is pretty easy to do prom on the cheap. Second hand stores specializing in gently used clothing are almost always cheaper than department and specialty shops. If you're the creative type and handy with a needle and thread, have seen 'Pretty in Pink' one too many times, or just watch a lot of Project Runway; modification of old prom dresses is fun and can save you a ton of cash. Plus it is the best way to make sure your dress is as unique as you are.

Quality vintage dresses can go either way. They can be super expensive or a great opportunity to save serious dough. The variables of course are the designer/brand of the dress, the age and where you buy it. Some vintage shops may have great stuff, know it, and charge out the wazoo for it. Other shops may have a couple great buys and may not know at all what they have. The fun of course, is in the hunt. Happy shopping.
