The Perfect Prom Gown: The Dress That Fits Your Silhouette

Although print dresses are often overlooked in favor of a bright solid color or classic all-black number, the infusion of a great pattern can make a lasting impression.

Let your personality shine with the help of a bold pattern. Hopeless romantics are all about floral, while the whimsical-hearted thrive in polka-dots (Marc Jacobs loves his spots). The clean-cut preppy girls can sparkle in their skinny seersucker-inspired stripes; the party girls, on the other hand, can show their wild streak with playful animal prints.

Bold print dresses call for subtle accessories: nothing too shiny, sparkly, or showy.
