ack, that time of year. i need suggestions (and/or sites) for prom dresses, nothing too frilly, preferably in this color:


Ruched Halter Dress


what do you guys think of this color for prom? i dont have many specifications, it doesnt have to be this color, im pretty open to all lengths, (no trains though), i'd really like a satin-y fabric, and either a low neckline, or low back, something glamorous, price range is pretty open...open to any suggestions!

Found some gorgeous ones at bluefly.  I love that color and threw in the prettiest ones in that color I saw and sorry, don't know how formal your prom is, but most of them are short because that's what I like.

Wow, love these especially:


Bari-Jay Shirred-Bodice Satin Gown


Ruby Rox Strapless Dress


Thanks girls. I'm debating on whether i want a floor length dress or not (I'm only 5'2), and whether the 2nd boho torquoise dress is formal enough (its soo beautiful though, i dunno) I was looking at pictures of dresses and i came across these that are obviously out of my price range but just some ideas:



i especially love the cut of the first and the necklines of the last two, so if any one sees anything similar, keep me posted, tia

Audrey- I think it is Nicole Miller. I ordered it for an event and I really love the color, but it just didn't fit me right. I was so bummed it was gorgeous dress.

my lil sis tried on one at windsor kinda similar to this but it had the alicia silverstone neckline (that you posted) didn't flare out like that at the bottom and it was kelly green, so cute

I went to prom a couple of weeks ago, and after a lot of stress and different dresses, I ended up wearing this--




I REALLY recommend my Rampage dress. It is super flattering and very soft. I found it at Nordstrom for $80.
