Prom: Vintage Style

Prom: Vintage Style
(dress, earrings, bracelet, shoes)

 

This prom season, why not go vintage? Vintage prom dresses are unexpected and unique— no one else will have your dress!

Here, we put together a 50s look. We also have party dresses and gowns from the 70s, 80s, and beyond, plus jumpsuits and separates if you don’t see yourself going to prom in a dress.  

The New York Times noted the emerging vintage prom dress trend back in 2014, and the concept has only gained popularity since. Search Instagram for #vintagepromdress and see for yourself.

This Bored Panda post on daughters who wore their mother’s dresses to prom shows how vintage prom dresses can be made modern with a simple change of hair and makeup.  

Rookie Magazine also has a great guide to choosing a vintage prom dress.
