Here comes the prom, the occasion where you show your glamour and enjoy your dancing time. Prom dress is undoubtedly the most exciting part – unless you are still uncertain about what to wear for your shorter physique. Fortunately, nowadays arrays of prom dresses are ready for you in whatever body type. Yet before go shopping, take your time to read following tips when choosing your best prom dress.
General rules for less height girls:
Length – Keep short prom dresses. Prom dresses that end at or above your knees will better show your legs and produce an elongated look.
Color – Stick to deep toned colors like black, grey, or navy blue. Try to dress in monochrome. People of any height look thinner in darker colors. Dresses of single color give you a unified look and make you look taller.
Fabric – Smooth fitting fabrics like silk, chiffon and satin are good options for adding an extra height to your look.
Fit – Choose fitting dresses or draping ones. Baggy or bulky gowns make you shorter visually.
Shoes – Wear high heels with v-shaped vamps and pointed toes. They make your legs look longer. Avoid flat shoes or shoes with blunt square or rounded toes.
Further tips for petite girls:
Girls with petite figures always give a lovely and sweet look.
An empire prom dress that flares out just below the bustline will create an illusion of height. Team with a pair of simple glass heels and a crystal tiara. You can also look like a small dainty princess who attracts handsome prince.
Sheath dresses of knee length fit your body figure well and produce a taller look. If you want to look sexy and sophisticated, dress in a solid color sheath dress with V-neck, spaghetti straps or one-shoulder design. Don’t forget a pair of stilettos.
A petite girl also looks great in brighter colors and pastels. Picture a petite girl in pastel goddess prom dress with some mini or smaller prints. As pure, classy and refined as she is, isn’t she?
Further tips for shorter plus girls:
Wear body shaping underwear that conceals the bulges and enhances your bust. They will certainly help your dress better.
High heels, but no stilettos as the very high narrow heels will make you look out of proportion.
A little black dress is a wonderful choice for shorter full-figured girls. The black color and fitting skirt flatter you well and accentuate an elegant look. If you think it’s too simple and dark, wear a shiny V- shaped necklace which adds a stunning touch.
An A-line floor length prom dress in monochromic color also suits you with high heels. Avoid any sash or belt at the waistline or the eyes will stop there. This will take several inches off your height.
Now enjoy your shopping time and choose the prom dress that flatters you best!
