Look hot while keeping cool! This season’s short prom dresses
On prom night in Palm Beach, you may not want to lug around a long, heavy prom gown. Warm temperatures + dancing all night = one uncomfortable evening. Consider going to prom in a sassy cocktail dress instead. After all, sacrificing length does not mean sacrificing style. Take a look at some of these short prom dresses by designers La Femme, Jovani, Faviana , and Tony Bowls Cocktail.
Short, chic, and edgy, this prom dress is for the girl who wants to look like Cinderella’s sexier step sister. You’ll shine from across the room as studded rhinestones adorn the strapless mini dress in a T-shape, creating a flattering effect for your figure. The sides and back of the dress feature embellishments of sequins, which create an allover glistening effect with a rocker’s edge.
Pair this dress with a colored sky-high pump to elongate your legs, and add bold jewelry to complete the look. Available in sizes 00-10. (more…)
