5 Easy Ways To Make Your Prom Look Runway Worthy

It can be difficult to emulate and keep up with fashion trends, especially when they are based off luxury brands. However, with the solid desire and vivid imagination, you can achieve a stunning prom look that can be dubbed as “runway worthy”. Here are a few different ways that you can take some of this year’s fashion trends and make them your own at prom!

Bright colours

Taking inspiration from the likes of Prabal Gurung and Christian Siriano, psychedelic and neon colours are making a big statement these days. If you really want to stand out at prom, this is a great way to do it. Perhaps, you could even consider “living coral”, which is this year’s pantone colour!.

Bright colours can be tricky to work with so make sure you are picking the right palette that complements your skin tone. If you are not a fan of this trend, try looking for a dress with subtle pops of colour instead or elevate your look by going for statement accessories.

Purple

Another in-demand colour this year is purple and fashionistas just can’t get enough of it. It’s elegant and romantic – two perfect attributes for a dress.

If you have a deep skin tone, a dark purple would accentuate your features even more while a softer purple would best suit those of fairer skin. Of course, the best way to know for sure is to try out these colours for yourself.

Pair purple in a more subtle way and go for a handbag in a complementary shade. It is a beautiful colour that matches with just about everything, so you’ll have no problem perfecting your look.

Relaxed suits

If you have been paying attention to the award shows this year, you would have seen a few female celebrities rocking a suit. Why not take a cue from the likes of Hailey Baldwin at New York Fashion Week and go for a nice relaxed suit for prom? It is one way to be elegant and bold plus you won’t have to worry about borrowing your date’s jacket, if you get cold.

Pockets

Who doesn’t like pockets, particularly actual functioning pockets? The great news is that they are a big hit on the runway this time around!

Nowadays, there many dresses or gowns that have pockets. Invest in one so you won’t have to worry about running out of space in your purse or losing important things like your phone.

Tie-dye

The latest tie-dye looks from brands like Prada and Stella McCartney bring out the trend in full force but we know it can be quite daunting for prom.

Pick a dress with a luxe material and go for sophisticated colours to keep it balanced. Think light blue satin. Another way to effectively pull off the the tie-dye look is by choosing a dress with a more elegant cut.

If a dress is too much, go for a tie-dye statement bag. You could easily make one yourself using the right materials.

There are plenty of trends from the runway that you can embody in your own way. The key is to determine which works the best for you. Fashion can be intimidating but the whole point of it is for self-expression. So why not experiment?
