i need a dress cause i have prom and graduation coming up in 3 months and it needs to be cute
Times have truly changed!! The money that is being spent on these dresses is str8 RIDICULOUS!! (COLLEGE BOOKS?)
I truly LOVED ALL THE AFRICAN INSPIRED DRESSES! They were beautiful and subtle, not having to expose so much for shock value! My question is…WHAT’S WITH ALL THE FISH-TAILED LONG TRAIN DRESSES?? Some of the trains were a bit dramatic! The young men looked so very handsome too!! As a Makeup Artist, some of the ladies highlighted their faces…WAY TOO MUCH!! Highlights are to enhance..not glare in your photos!! Them KARDASHIANS done told you wrong My SISTA’S!!!!
My have times changed! I went to prom in 2009 and back then no one wore dresses nearly as sexy and over-the-top as these ladies.
Very pretty. I have to admit some of these dresses were not age appropriate. One girl had a huge cutout in the front showing way too much breast. The girl in the teal and white mermaid gown,. Too much!!
simply regal …loved everyone of them
Beautiful! Makes me want to go to a white tie affair. The girl in the white and red dress reminds me of Keke Palmer, just a little.
i’m so excited for prom. All the dresses were appropriate and classy. I’ve seen some trashy tasteless dress and this ain’t it.
These gals are gorgeous. It seems girls are growing up so quickly now.
Slay ladies. slay.
They are Beautiful gowns especially the reds!…some.expose the.breasts.TOO.MUCH.for.me.but.nice.
Gorgeous! Wish we can do a do-over on our prom dresses! ?
Arghh I wish I would’ve worn Kente cloth to prom. They all look amazing.
i love the queen sheila one….the coming to america inspired one.
Are these 17 and 18 year-olds??? Am I the only one who thinks some dresses are not age appropriate?
Sweetie, I’ve seen some prom dresses this season on social media, that would make most of these look demure. Some of the necklines are a bit much, but otherwise, I can’t hate.
If you think they’re too much, don’t put your daughter in them..easy. Otherwise, live and let live.
I agree. Too much skin showing for young ladies.
i was scared i was the only ones. These dresses are cute but I think the ages in them are little
Aren’t they about to be young adults? Let them breathe a little. They not wearing this EVERYDAY, its just a one-time event. You sound like a overprotective mom. You can’t control everything they wear, they gonna have to grow up at some point,just like young adults get to wear what they want, treat them like the young adults they are maturing in to.
