Attending your prom is a magical experience. However, after spending countless hours and money on buying a dress, it’s a shame that the only time you will wear your dress is to prom. Here are a few options that can help you wear your dress for future occasions.
Shorten it – Have your dress shortened by a professional tailor. This will make the dress a wearable summer dress that can be paired with denim jacket and wedge heels or sandals.
Wear a T-shirt underneath – Make your prom dress a bit tougher with a T-shirt underneath. This is best for strappy prom dresses. Pair your outfit with ballet flats and a wrap around choker.
Pair it with casual shoes – High top sneakers provide comfort and style. Instead of a handbag, look for a leather backpack.
Donate it – There are a number of organizations that take used dresses and give them to young teens who cannot afford their own. If you know you will never wear your dress, why not give someone else the pleasure of wearing it and enjoying their evening.
Wear it to work – Even the most embellished dress and be made professional by pairing it with a slim fitting blazer. Pair your outfit with sleek pumps and a leather office bag.
Repeat it for a wedding – A prom dress can be re-worn for a spring or summer wedding.
