opinions on this prom dress

sydney · Kate Spade

I think it's pretty. What's important is that you feel comfortable in it too - you'll enjoy yourself more. Tiny strappy silver sandals would probably look great.

Kitty · Hermes

It's very mermaid-like, which could be fun to play up!

dangergirl · Kate Spade

i like it too, maybe gold sandals?

BellinaJessica · Kenneth Cole

I like it but you REALLY have to be able to pull that color off or you'll just look like a pretty leprechaun. That's one of those colors that few can pull off so if you can I say go for it!

XtinaStyles · Marc Jacobs

I think its beautiful and daring. I especially like the style of the bodice. I agree that the color might be hard to pull off - what is your coloring?

ranchera20 · Marc Jacobs

Hmmmm I guess I could say that my skin color would be a bit more tan then the models. And my hair color is dark brown (if that matters any).

Becca · Kate Spade

I love the color of the dress. It's gorgeous and would look really pretty against your skintone/hair.

alagirl · Kenneth Cole

How I miss the prom dress shopping days!!! I like the dress and the way the skirt is made and think it would look good with the way you have described your coloring.

XtinaStyles · Marc Jacobs

Sounds like it will look great with your coloring.

jacL · Coach

The dress is pretty and I think it will look good on you. I love the color and I love that it is not a big frilly princess dress (do girls even still wear those anymore?).

Eurodaisy · Dooney & Bourke

I love it! The color and shape of the dress is very pretty and unexpected. I also like how it doesn't drag the ground and is a bit shorter in front -- makes it easier to dance in!

I also agree that some kind of metallic shoe and some gorgeous, long earrings are a must!

Thanks girls I feel better knowing almost everyone likes it. I still have to call the store and check the price of the dress but this might be one of my main options!
