Prom Dress for Your Body Type

We hope the following will help you find a dress that helps you look your best on prom night.

If you are petite and wish to appear taller, choose a prom dress in a solid color with a slim fit. Any vertical line will give the illusion of height, whether it is a top to bottom ruffle, vertical embroidery design, or a high slit over one leg. Avoid busy all-over dress patterns that be over-powering. Your prom dress should bring attention to your own beauty.

If you are tall and lanky you have many prom dress options.

* A full ball gown skirt helps flatten a small waist (or create the illusion of one). Be glad you won’t be overpowered by the most elaborate fantasy gown.
* You might choose a prom dress to show off your long legs. A short skirt or high slit will accomplish this beautifully.
* Prom dresses with belts or ribbons around the waist were made for you.
* If your full length prom dress seems too short, take advantage of the new shoe mania and choose a prom shoe that contrasts with your dress or feature special novelty trims. Give your feet a little glory!

prom dress fit

For the athletically built, go for a strapless or halter prom dress to show off broad shoulders. Trying to cover up big muscles only makes them appear larger. Prom dresses with A-line or full hems help balance broad shoulders.

Soften a muscular silhouette with a prom dress that has feminine features, such as ruffles, a high slit, or low back.


If your shape is curvy avoid busy patterns which can make you look larger. Pick a prom dress with one or two colors. Try a prom dress that softly hugs your curves, but does not cling to them. A-line prom dresses are flattering for your body type. Wear a bra-friendly pro dress.
