How to choose the perfect Homecoming Dress

Color Since homecoming dances occur in the Fall, you’ll be sure to see your childhood friends in earthy colors, such as olive and brown. These shades complement most skin tones, so they are often a safe bet. To ensure you stand right out of the crowd at your homecoming dance, choose pink homecoming dresses with a bold pattern, like this La Femme dress. Neon shades, such as hot pink and fluorescent blue, are sure to make a statement, as well.

Neckline Choose a neckline based on your body type. Girls with a larger frame might opt for v-necks, scoop-necks or girlfriend necklines. These shapes create the impression of a longer vertical line, helping to make fuller-figured girls look older and thinner. Girls with a smaller frame should look for necklines that will visually expand them, like a classic halter or a crew neck style. For those with an average build, consider the look of your neck, shoulders and bust. Draw attention away from rectangular shoulders by choosing a homecoming dress with a scoop, rectangular or v-neck, like this A2z tony Bowls Homecoming dress. Cover a too-small or too-large bust, choose Sabrina neckline, which delicately curves in shoulder to the other. Length Remember, homecoming is not as formal an event as prom, so consider going with a shorter dress. A skirt that hits your leg at mid-thigh tends to be becoming for all body types, like this Faviana Homecoming Dress. First, though, consult your high school’s dress code before opting for a short dress. For more conservative schools, choose knee-length alcoholic drink dress. Skirt In order to best cooler your figure, you must choose a dress with the right silhouette. Slender girls can create the illusion of curves with a dress that cinches at the waistline and bells out, like this A2z tony Bowls Homecoming Dress. To cover a pear-shaped body that is smaller on top and fuller down below, opt for dresses with a fitted waistline and an A-line skirt. Petite girls should avoid fuller silhouettes, as they can overwhelm small frames. Still not certain what style will cooler your figure?
