Prom outfit and its features

- Convenience.Keep in mind that when celebrating your graduation party, you will not sit in one place, but will dance, have fun and meet your first adult dawn. Short dresses, styles with fluffy, bulky skirts and too open a top will not be very comfortable.

- For those with narrow shoulders, it is better to choose a style with ruffles on the shoulders and sleeves. Decorate the dress along the shoulders and sleeves, giving visual volume to this part.
- For fuller figures, use matte, not very thin fabrics with vertical reliefs that will make the figure slimmer.
- If your shoulders are wide, choose “A” silhouette dresses or fluffy airy skirts.
- Thin girls look great in bright dresses with large prints and airy multi-layered skirts.
- A wide waist dictates the choice of a wrap dress or a wide skirt that flares at the bottom.
