Choose from these popular prom dress Styles and Cuts

If you are feeling unsure about what prom dresses to choose,here are some useful examples for you to choose from.

A tulle skirt or bouffant prom dress features a puffed-out skirt made of sheer rayon or silk materials. Its flared skirt works great for hiding heavy legs. The ball gown is another elegant style that has a full skirt that starts at the waist and is a floor-length prom dress.

The high-low prom dress is long in the back and shorter in the front, usually right above the knees. It's great for long legs and the hourglass type figure. The tea-length dress may be sleeveless or may come with sleeves and have a fitted bodice, but usually only comes to just below the knees. It's a simple, flirty style that shows off the calves - great for tall, thin figures!

The sheath design slims the figure from the shoulders to the hemline. It hugs and outlines the body's silhouette and is popular with sleeveless style prom dresses. Sheath dresses are recommended for tall, thin persons. A gown that looks great on anyone with large hips and thighs is the A-line prom dress. It is designed with a fitted bodice that flares out into a full skirt from the waist down. The waist is seamless. A-line prom is also called "princess" cut.

Pleats create a look that's forgiving to almost any figure, but will add a unique beauty to your dress. Pleats that lay flat are recommended for plus sizes in combination with the empire waist for best results. For almost any style dress, opt for embellishments such as flowers at the back of the dress, patterns in the material, beads and bows, or bands of sequins at the waistline. These can form lines to emphasize certain parts of your figure while de-emphasizing others!
