Prom season is finally here! What better way to celebrate the end of the school year than to dance the night away with your friends? We know that figuring out what to wear in the sea of options can be a bit overwhelming, so we’ve put together some of our favorite looks to hopefully help you narrow down your search and find the dress of your dreams. We drew our dress inspirations from some of our favorite fashion forward celebrities and their red carpet looks. To finish off the look we have paired these red carpet dress looks with accessories, shoes, and makeup to help you finish your outfit.

From Emma Stone’s dress in La La Land and Emma Watson’s ball dress in Beauty and the Beast to the red carpet, yellow has been trending as a popular dress color on and off the silver screen. Bright and fun, yellow is not only eye-catching but also translates well into sophisticated looks perfect for prom. A yellow dress will make you stand out and perfectly captures the festive vibe of spring and summer.

The rhinestones will add a beautiful touch of glimmer and more dimension to your overall outfit. We love this fiery feather blood-orange dress as seen on Hailey Baldwin. With unique and spicy details such as this, we recommend wearing a shoe that is as bold as the dress. A silver platform peep-toe heel for this look will make this outfit look sophisticated and let your friends know that you're ready to party.

Look 4: Sparkling Metallics
After last year’s Met Gala, we’ve seen a rise in the sparkling metallic dresses. Show-stopping and absolutely stunning on their own, it is no surprise that these dresses have become a hot trend. These young stars show how to wear this glitzy old Hollywood glamour look without the tackiness. Beads and sequins aren’t usually showcased in outfits during the week which makes prom the perfect time to wear something glitzy. Having a dress that is already dazzling makes accessorizing more simple.
