The Perfect Prom Dress for 2011

Prom season 2011 is almost here, which means there are a lot of new and very hot 2011 prom dress trends debuting this season. Now is the time in which the hunt for the “dress to end all dresses” starts. Luckily, there are many colors, prints, designs and styles for you to decide upon when finding that perfect dress. Great prom dress designers, such as Tony Bowls, Jovani, Mori Lee, Clarisse, Crush, Atira and many others offer the hottest trends to choose from.

You do not pick a prom dress solely on the latest style or fashion. Your prom dress should be as unique as you. Whether you are going to the Junior or Senior Prom for the first time, or ready to make that lasting impression on your friends, we are here to help you. It’s all about being you, and letting your own unique personality shine through. The prom dress collection of 2011 is unlike any other, full of style, and unique designs.

When deciding on color, there are so many to choose from. This year prom dresses 2011 seems to be more bright popping colors, like bright pink, purple, and blues. Black and White will always be in style, but White is this years fashion forward color!

Ball Gowns are a HOT trend this year, and printed ball gowns with tulle overlay are all the rage. Hi-low hemlines especially with the ruffle layers are very popular too. A lot of prom dress designers have also created a new trend called the Overskirt. It's a pull off/removable long skirt, leaving it a short dress. What a great idea! Not to mention hot and sexy! Some details that are becoming more popular for prom trends 2011 are feathers! Yes feathers! Rhinestones are always popular with prom dresses, but big chunky stones will be hot this season, on both dresses, and jewelry. Beautiful hand painted prints, make these formal dresses stand out, as well as big floral rosette appliqués. Big Bows, Taffeta, Layers and Pleated gowns are big this year too. Just remember to choose what you love, and show off your personality.

The cut and shape of the dress you choose will all depend on your body shape. Choose a dress that flatters your figure, and accents your positive features. If you have a little more weight in the hips and belly; do not buy a dress that fits tight across the midriff and buttocks, like the mermaid cut. Choose either an empire waist, and/or an a-line style cut. If you need to minimize your bust, choose a halter neck design, which is great for toning down that fuller bust, plus gives you plenty of support. Corset style dresses work well with full busts also to ensure comfort and a customized fit. Any dress with ruching in the mid section is great for smoothing over any imperfections, and gives the illusion of a slimmer waistline.

What ever dress you choose, the number one rule you should always abide by is, never buy a dress that is too small. It will make you appear larger than you are. You want a form fitting, but not a tight dress. Always compare your measurements to the size charts the dress designers supply to insure you are ordering the correct size; and order the dress size according to your largest measurement. Then have the dress altered to create a pleasing fit. You will feel comfortable and beautiful on your special day.
