Looking for a little extra "umph?" Pick a dress that incorporates one of the season's dramatic details, including leg-baring slits, plunging necklines or striking back interest, which is sure to turn heads.
Whether classic or modern, sweet or sassy, prom styles allow you to coordinate your entire look from head-to-toe. Your accessories should be tailored to your dress so that they enhance, rather than detract from your look.
If your dress is on the simpler side, be bold and wear jewelry featuring colored stones or chunky jewels. Or opt to complete your show- stopping, Hollywood look with multiple bangles.
A simple, shimmering handbag and an elegant hair accessory is the perfect complement to an allover print. For your feet, perfectly dyed to match or metallic, strappy sandals are the ideal solution to rise above the crowd.
Concerned about wearing the same dress as someone else? Take a cue from the stars and personalize your look with fabulous accessories to ensure you leave a lasting impression. Once you've figured out your style personality, it's time to prepare for your moment in the limelight.
Nigel reveals his top tips to ensure camera- ready style for the ultimate prom photos:
- Dress for Success - Try on several dresses, and buy the one that makes you feel your best, as this confidence will translate to photos.
Check out DavidsProm.com for countless luxurious, yet affordable options and try David's new virtual prom fashion gallery, Promtourage, which lets you bring your prom style to life before the big night.
Not only can you "try on" hundreds of prom dresses and accessories from the Red Carpet Gallery, you can also personalize your looks, change backgrounds and even invite friends to be part of your Promtourage scene.
- Sleeping Beauty - The day before having photos taken, don't underestimate getting a good night's sleep to give a rested appearance. Also, drink plenty of water to help bring a natural glow to your cheeks and pop the whites of your eyes. For the finishing touch, subtle makeup is the way to go.
- Take Charge - If more than one person is taking your picture, try to face each camera one at a time to give everybody a chance to get a good shot.
You can't always guarantee a photographer's angle and picture-taking ability will do you justice, so owning your look is the most important thing to consider when stepping out in front of those flash bulbs.
- Put Your Best Foot Forward - Learn from your favorite celebrities and put one foot in front of the other, while placing your hand on your opposite hip, to get ready for the camera. This classic red-carpet pose will highlight your curves and lengthen your silhouette. Tilting your chin slightly upward will also have ravishing results.
- Confidence is Key - Confidence is the secret to a truly unforgettable shot, so flash a self-assured smile, believe in yourself and remember that it's your time to shine. When all is said and done, have fun with it so that the memory of your prom night will be much more than a photo!
