Prom Fashion
Trends ... Ruched and gathered, beaded, sparkling and luster fabrics
are big factors this prom season. Also important: rich reds, burgundies,
and deep romantic blues capture the essence of the American Classic
look. Winter white and classic black are still strong for early prom
events, particularly in strapless dresses. Spaghetti straps and specitalty
detailing along the bustline are important this year, including sequins,
rhinestones, and delicate embroidery.

Rhapsody
in Blue...
Spring
formal fashions in blue inspire hope.
Sky blue, aqua, and baby blue hues mark the delicate formal
dress designs of Spring, as well as shades of sage and cornflower
and blush colors. Black on white mixed with color blocks portray
classic style. Blue is the color of hope, friendship, and peace,
timely themes for a turbulent world. Styles like overlays
and flyaways add romance and charm, while simple silhouettes
of empire, a-line, and princess shapes make the look timeless.
Spring fashion designers show blue highlights in silk tops,
polka dot dresses, and crinkle fabrics. Where you find blush
you find blue, and this season look for blush and blue hints
in collections from DKNY, BCBG, Calvin Klein, and others.
Dreaming of June...
Look for corsets and organza in 2006 formal prom dresses.
Classic white formal
fashions are back in 2006, along with pretty new Chanel
interpretations in black and pink. Beaded
satin blends traditional elegance with modern latino influences.
Corsets are a new
twist, bringing back the feminine fiqure and providing a backdrop
for intricate brocades and embellished beadwork.
While much of America is discussing politics and the economy,
some are simply dreaming of April and June... spectacular
prom gowns and beautiful wedding dresses. For more bridal

Metrofashion
Magazine - Formalwear Winter/Spring
Perhaps no formalwear season of the last 30 years
is more important to the fashion industry than the this season
- designers, retailers, and boutiques anticipate a surge of
special occasion shopping as American consumers reaffirm their
commitment to family, community, and charity through weddings
and events. The New Fashion Values have already influenced formalwear
styles for prom
dresses, bridal
gowns and bridesmaid
dresses, and special
occasion evening gowns.
The first influence is the highlighted bodice; designers this
season are placing more emphasis on fitted shapes with striking
color and embroidery or ornaments. In our cover shot from Macy's
Passport, Jessica McClintock's fairy green, plunging v-neck
gown is crisply molded and matched to the extravagant floral
inlay of the skirt. Also shown is the deep backline and decorative
mosaic design of another Jessica McClintock creation. With the
globalization
of fashion trends, simplifying and highlighting the bodice
in formalwear designs broadens the designer's reach across cultural
expectations.
The second influence is the bold feminine shape; designers are
using sheath, trumpet,
princess, mermaid,
and a-line styling
to create curvy dresses, many with corseted or structured undergarments,
reasserting the womanly look in this season's formal line. Gone
are the demure straight silhouettes and the tailored workwear
looks of the last century. The post-9/11 woman attends her public
as a proud yet traditionally sensual creature.
Which leads to the third influence, the new emphasis on soft,
feminine expression through silk
and chiffon overlays, lace
bordering, and beaded
or rhinestone
hems, lines, and straps. While the partygoer is simply elegant
with brilliant structural accents, the bride dons a flowing
gown overlayed with embroidered or appliquéd sheath.
Soft satin silk is the fabric of choice, with form-enhancing
embellishments to match the wearer's personality.

blouse tied at the waist, very Audrey Hepburn. Made in U.S.A
of 100% polyester lamour satin. Dry clean only.

Winter
white is an important focus of the season, and it is found in
this classic princess dress that's updated with a silvery bead
look. Many contemporary ball gown shoppers prefer the chic look
of straplesss, dressed up or down with optional sexy straps,
or hanging beads, or embroidered borders. This special occasions
and party dress works great for the calendar events like winter
or spring formals and cocktails.

We love black dresses at Metrofashion. That's why we look for
the most versatile and fun black designer dresses in a variety
of price ranges and cuts. This sheath dress has a v-neck design

Globe Awards (see article excerpt below.) |

Romantic,
off the shoulder dress reminiscent of Shakespeare's Juliette.
Empire waist with dramatic chiffon drape. Also available in
plus
sizes. This prom dress is sure to be a conversation topic.
Shakespeare has seen a revival in popular culture over the last
10 years as Generation Y has embraced and updated the charms
of the English playwright in recent movies like Shakespeare
in Love, Hamlet,
and O. The empire waist gives the gown a regal look while
the off-the-shoulder neckline makes the look fresh and modern.

Strapless is getting a lot of exposure these days. At the Golden
Globe Awards in January (see article excerpt below), put
on by the Hollywood Foreign
Press, celebrities ranging from Kim Cattrell of Sex and
the City to Lisa Kudrow of Friends wore strapless
ball gowns that brought down the house. Although this year's
Globe Awards was more reserved than usual, with the men wearing
mostly classic black suits, stylists used gems, beads, sheer,
and trains to add sparkle to the conservative evening. |

elegant chiffon gown with thin spaghetti straps. Cut on the
bias for a wonderful drape. Two layers of chiffon. Small v-neck
in front with a deep v-neck in back. Full length dress, perfect
with strappy heels and a little handbag. This is the dress

If you missed Jennifer Garner at the Golden
Globe Awards (see article excerpt above), she was wearing
a RED-RED sheath
dress from Vera Wang that would make Sydney Bristow (her sexy
spy character on the hit new drama Alias) sit up and take
notice. Garner notched the Globes as her coming out event
and the red evening gown made the right impression. Red is
by nature an attention-getting color anyway, so Garner found
a way to be noticed and appreciated while keeping in line
with the respectful, demure atmosphere at the red card Golden
Globes event. See Jennifer Garner and other Globes favorites
in photographs from Hollywood.com.
