Which dress should I wear to prom?

[astronaut]

Last year for junior prom I got my dress at JC penny's and while I thought it was nice, I had to go through the horror of having the same dress as someone else

Not to mention my date was horrible and since I decided to go last minute, I couldn't ride in the limo with my friends due to space

So, every thing's going to go perfect this time! And also since this is my last year, I want to go all out and treat myself with an exclusive dress! I plan on getting extensions too for the first and probably second to last time in my life! (wedding?

)

I'm split between these two:

Jovani

or

Chloe Dao (I'd get the black one. I really like how it's simple in the front and in the back, there's detailing with a modest bow and I adore the two straps that run down the back. I also like the idea of being able to walk around saying "My dress is Chloe Dao!" The only thing I'm iffy about this one though is that the cut in the front. It might make my arms look super fat...)

I like both in their own ways!

I personally love the Jovani. I also like the idea of saying "I'm wearing Chloe!", but I think she's made better dresses.

I really love the Jovani dress but I would like to see how the bottom looks, it's weird that they don't show a full body picture :shrug: Stunning either way

I like the Chloe dao dress. The Jovani is lovely, but it reminds me too much of lingerie and that's a little much for prom (imo).

The second dress is much more elegant. I never went to prom and I know a lot of girls go for the "I'm a slutty whore look" haha. It looks like you're trying to go for the "I'm a sexy glamour queen look" and I think the second one really screams that!

I really like the first one, It's fun! The second one looks a little too fancy for prom. Of course it's been years since I've been lol.

 

[Pinkangie]

I also would prefer the first one :nod:

 

[Miss Pumpkin]

I'd get the first one!

i loove the first one! it's unique.. different from any i've seen so far. and i like the bows in the back and front.

Jovani makes spectacular dresses. The yellow dress Kate Hudson wore in How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days was Jovani.
That said...those dresses are HARD to wear. If you have any extra ANYTHING and aren't just slim and sleek, it's going to show. If you're shortwaisted, it's going to show. It's also MADE for a woman who's five foot eight and counts for her heels too, so you're going to definitely have to have it tailored.
Jovani's dresses are also generally silk. They stain VERY easily.



after looking, I'd say go with the first one. The second one will NOT lay on you like it does in the photo, and you'll be disappointed if you buy it directly from the picture without trying it on. :/ If you order it after trying it on and know what to expect, it's one thing but more often than not, that material looks fabulous on a model / couture body and in a magazine, but is really hard to wear in a cut like that in person.

I absolutely LOVE the first one. God, it's so beaitiful. That's definitely my choice.

I would take Shimmer's advice though and try these on in person if possible!

Holy cow - you must have some job to be able to afford those! I'm jealous, I had to skimp on my proms haha.

I love the Chloe one, it's very sophisticated yet not over the top or too sexy for a high school dance. I think it would be gorgeous!!

If the Jovani dress came without that bow in the front, I'd go with it, but I feel the bow makes it look too top heavy and unnatural.

I love the Chloe Dao dress! I don't know your physique, but remember to pick dresses that will flatter your own body. (I'm sure you know what you look good in) Also, I would never buy a dress that I couldn't try on myself before I purchase it, but that's just me.

Have fun at your prom!!

Yep, I agree with Shimmer's suggestions.

So far as my vote, I'd go for the Chloe one

And rather not go with the blah black and white ones...I actually quite like the Olive colored one you got posted

 

[..kels*]

i'd go with the first one. it's gorgeous!

 

[TheRitz]

i lo0ve the jovani, the chloe is just too simple and looks like everyone will have something similiar to it. but the first one is very unique and gorgeous. however i think 500 for prom is a lil too much, i have seen some gorgeous dresses for less. my engagement party dress was only 200 and i lo0ved it and got sooo many compliments. heres a pic..

 

[Holly]

I absolutely looove the first one!

 

[kiss_love_kill]

the first one is beautiful! its alot more special! ^^

 

[kaliraksha]

Eeep my prom dress was jovani and it took me months and months to find. I love the first dress.

I'd go with the Jovani. I think it looks stunning
