When Choosing A Prom Dress, Whose Opinion Matters The Most

The prom is an important milestone in a young girl's life, so much so, that she may start thinking about it while still in junior high. What a young girl sees in a movie about proms, may influence her expectations of her own prom. A girl has special memories of her prom night for years, especially when she remembers the dress she wore.

Many teen girls have a lot of fun - and a lot of stress - choosing their perfect prom dress. Hopefully, the fun will prevail over the stress! These pieces of advice will reduce stress and help you get a prom dress that looks good, fits your personality, and fits beautifully.

One problem is, of course, peer pressure and concerns over acceptance and acknowledgment from your peers at school. All girls say they want their dress to be unique. But when they are choosing a prom dress, customers may be afraid of what their friends and others might think, if they select a dress that is truly different. Each girl wants to have her own unique style, yet she wants to fit in with what her peers are wearing as well.

A customer looking for a prom dress usually wants her friends to approve it before she buys it. So even if she loves the dress, and it is the last one of its kind, she will probably not purchase it right away. Getting several opinions about your dress choices is always a wise decision. If you get opinions from friends, be careful and consider the source; whether they intend it or not, friends' opinions can be affected by their knowledge of your normal wardrobe, or their desire to not be upstaged by what you're wearing.

The store sales people will also offer their opinion. Their experience with a variety of styles and body types makes them a wonderful resource, and you should pay close attention to what they say. Though it is also important to consider your personality, the salesperson rarely knows you, which makes it easier for them to offer suggestions to you on styles that differ from your norm. Watch that the sales people don't suggest only the most expensive options for you. They may only have the desire to make a sale on their mind, and could be giving a dishonest assessment of how the color and clothing style work with your body type and skin tone. Look for a store known for honesty and experience. You can really pick up on the honesty of the salesperson, if they are telling you that an expensive dress doesn't really work on you.

Remember that you are the one who is going to be wearing the dress, so the ultimate choice is up to you. Friends and salespeople can be helpful, but YOU must like the dress also! Have fun, don't stress, and make sure that you open yourself to different possibilities when it comes to style. You may be quite surprised at what you come up with. Even if you have a unique style, don't be afraid to express yourself.
