Angelic and Sweet – Making Your Prom Perfect With a White Prom Dress
By Francis Sinclair

Prom is a night for romance, fun, friendships, and magic. While prom night itself is a joy, the events leading up to it can be stressful and trying. The biggest headache girls often face is trying to decide what to wear. They may agonize over the perfect dress for months. Often they choose to look bold in red or black, or sophisticated in slim sheaths of pastel satins. Another choice, and a somewhat daring one, is to showcase your sweeter side by wearing a white prom dress.

This guide will help you choose a great white prom dress, but accessorize it as well.

Sizing up Your White Prom Dress

White prom dresses, for the most part, look better in full length styles. Short white dresses tend to look cheap and less elegant, while a long white prom dress cut in Cinderella style flows nicely and gives off the impression of innocence and purity.

Perfecting Your White Prom Dress Head to Toe

A simple but elegant white satin dress shoe or sandal in a low heel compliments a white prom dress best. Don't forget to make sure you can walk and dance comfortably in the shoes you select.

A girl wearing a white prom dress has two options when it comes to accessorizing. She can either go with white accessories, or she can pick one other color that complements her shade of white. This can be a sharp accent color, such as a touch of red or black, or a matching color like a soft pastel. Silver and gold look good with just about anything, but they are especially flattering to white clothing.

This color you choose can be used for handbags, jewelry (a diamond necklace looks stunning with a white dress) and other accessories to break up the solid white color. Makeup should be lightly applied in neutral or light pink shades. Because the gown is such a soft color, dramatic makeup will appear overdone and even clownish. Light eye makeup and a clear or pink lip gloss soften the features and create an angelic look.

Long hair looks great flowing naturally over your shoulders or piled on top of your head with some tendrils on the sides. For those with shorter hair, a soft style with some jeweled hair pins look very nice. A girl can finish her look with nails done in light pink.
