We'd love to know your favorite stuffing ingredients
Heres what reads as Art Deco glamour at prom: Beading and rhinestones especially geometric or floral patterns across the bodice Lace overlays sheer lace over satin creates that layered, vintage-luxe effect Sequin embroidery scattered or patterned, not all-over coverage Mermaid or column silhouettes sleek and body-skimming, very 1920s in shape Sweetheart or V-necklines period-appropriate without being theatrical Gold, champagne, black, and ivory the true Gatsby color palette And heres what tips it into costume territory best to avoid: Headbands with large feathers worn as the centerpiece of your look Fringed fabric from hem to bust on an otherwise undetailed dress Period-accurate dropped waist silhouettes that look shapeless on most frames Vintage brooches, elbow gloves, and cigarette holders all at once One strong Art Deco element is enough
Comfortable Fit The top of these gowns is stretchy to accommodate all the possible styles, and this also makes it extra comfortable
If your girls have fair skin with pink undertones, for example, steer clear from pinks and reds
These beautiful and romantic elements spread from the top to the fluffy A-line skirt, like A garden blooming in the morning light, swaying with each step, emitting a fairy-tale atmosphere
