How to find the best prom dress for your special day -- for less!
Home Contact Us Link Resources		A Modest Prom Dress Doesn't Have to Be Boring All it takes is a flashback to Jennifer Lopez at the Golden Globes, neckline plunging past her naval, held in place only by two pieces of double-sided tape. In a fashion world that seems increasingly focused on the provocative, where does one begin to search for modest prom dresses? Given the current taste for sexy and revealing clothes, modest prom dresses may not be on the fashion forefront, but many designers include a variety of such styles in their current collections. Not only can scant gowns be exceedingly tacky, but designers also realize these simply cannot work for everyone in a country where the average woman is 5’4” and a size 14. In beginning your search for modest prom dresses, you may find that the Internet can be one of your best resources. Many formal wear shops include all the dresses available in their stores on their web sites, with styles available to browse as easily as you would flip through a catalog. For those who boast a more womanly figure, Sydney's Closet is a unique store specializing in modest prom dresses size 14-44. The selection is amazing, incorporating a wide variety of the season’s hottest trends and shades. Even better, many dream dresses are available now, ready-to-ship and arrive on your doorstep within three to five business days! If you want to try the dress on before you purchase, you may choose to order your gown from a formal wear or specialty store. Many premier designers include some of the most elegant modest prom dresses in their collections. You might consider Faviana, whose collection is renowned for a focus on sophisticated glamour. If you’re not sure what style to choose for a romantic and flattering look, the best advice when browsing modest prom dresses is to make a selection based on what you feel most comfortable in, in a style that flatters your assets. For instance, if your body is pear-shaped (meaning that your hips are wider than your shoulders), create your own fairy tale and try one of the full ball gowns that are so popular this prom season. Not into floor-length dressing? Go with an elegant, tea-length sheath that shows off your waistline. If your figure is apple-shaped (you have a fuller waistline and bust, with slimmer hips and legs), try a cocktail dress with an A-line skirt to define your waist and show off those legs! Avoid anything too form fitting, as it could give a top-heavy illusion. And, don’t be afraid to show some sexy skin—if you’ve got great arms, try a slimming, black sleeveless sheath and dress it up with pearls or a rhinestone brooch for that glamorous, Hollywood starlet look. Remember, looking for modest prom dresses doesn’t mean sacrificing style or allure! When it comes to the prom, shopping for an appropriate dress can seem intimidating, especially for the faint of heart! But with the array of modest prom dresses available today, you’re sure to find a perfect dress invoking both quiet drama and fetching glamour at once. Back to top
