Prom may be several months away, but we’re already looking ahead to it—and since it’s the event of the school year, we know high school girls are too. If you’re anything like us, you’re already dreaming of your prom night look, and are wondering what can’t-miss trends you should be looking out for. Don’t worry!

Bright Colors

The best way to stand out at prom? Wear a standout color that no one will be able to take their eyes off of. This style is perfect: sleek and simple, this glowing satin dress gets its bold look from its bright teal color, something sure to make you stand out. 



Florals

Meryl Streep may have denounced florals for spring in her iconic role as Meredith Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada, but what can we say? We still love them—especially when they’re as unique and ethereal as the climbing blooms along this lilac gown. 



Metallics

Neutrals don’t have to be boring! This gorgeous ombre prom dress fades from silver to rose gold with a series of expertly placed rhinestones to give it shimmer. The gorgeous, metallic sheen of this gown is sure to make you radiant, shimmering with each turn on the dance floor. 



Beaded Shoulders

Want something unique and romantic? Off-the-shoulder beaded straps give your dress a delicate, unique detail no one else will have. It adds a slight vintage-inspired look to the design perfect for the girl dreaming of something completely romantic. 



Jumpsuits

You’re not required to wear a dress to prom! Why not wear a jumpsuit? Easy to wear and easy to move in, a jumpsuit gives you a completely unexpected look that you’ll love. This style adds a lace train, elevating the jumpsuit to the formal look of prom. 



Colorful Glitter

We’re sure you’ve seen all-over glitter on a prom dress before, but why not go for a color instead of a metallic? This neon orange is the perfect choice for the girl who wants a glitter prom dress, but wants one that’s a bit more out-of-the-box. 



High-Low Skirts

An early 2010’s trend that’s slowly making its way back, the high-low silhouette is getting an update this year. If you’re not too keen on long dresses, this trend is perfect for you. You’ll get to show off your legs while still wearing a dress long enough for prom. 



Classic and Sleek

Want something you’ll be able to wear again and again, even after you’ve graduated high school? This trend is timeless, classic, and will never go out of style. Another thing we love about simple dresses? You can add bold accessories to give the look your own touch of personal style.
