Dresses by Event
Here at Promgirl.net we know that prom and homecoming are not the only special occasions that call for the finest in fashion, which is why we offer a variety of formal, cocktail and prom dresses suitable for every event from summer weddings to holiday parties so that you can look stunning at any formal affair.
Of course, the charm of these elegant gowns comes from the top designers who created them. Creations from notable names like Jovani, Tony Bowls and Clarisse mingle amongst dresses from Sparkle, Mori Lee, Blush and Mac Duggal, just to name a few.
What stands out even more than the dress designer is the person in the dress, and our collection of fabulous frocks will ensure that you stand out in the crowd. Just browse these pages to discover a plethora of stunning creations for every occasion and every season!
Spring and Summer
Spring and summer are sizzling with formal events, especially since they are the time of year when proms swing into full gear. As you may have guessed from our name of Promgirl.net, we are one of the major go-to places for gals to find the most amazing prom dress selection.
But that doesn’t mean that is the only type of dress you’ll find in our vast array of gowns. Other spring and summer occasions that deserve a dazzling dress include summer weddings and graduation parties.
Spring and summer celebrity trends noted by Elle magazine include a variety of looks that stay hot season after season. The lady-like look is an elegant one to choose, featuring traditional silhouettes in frothy ball gowns and cocktail dresses.
Complete the look in a soft, spring or summery pastel or make a dramatic statement in a gorgeous jewel toned gown. Sheer fabrics and lace overlays play into the feminine vibe, as do intricate embellishments and embroidery.
For a more daring style that packs plenty of pizzazz, a fun and fanciful showgirl-type dress steals the show every time. Black dresses can fall into the showgirl category, along with peek-a-boo cutouts, embellished spaghetti straps, high-low hemlines and vivid patterns that absolutely pop. Think sweeping ruffled skirts, thigh-high slits and oodles of sequins and sparkles!
Bring spring and summer into full bloom with what Elle calls the flower girl look, which puts its major focus on flowers, flowers and more flowers. You can do this with floral patterns, of course, but you can also go wild with actual flower embellishments made of fabric, ribbons or other magnificent materials.
Fall and Winter
Fall and winter events that merit glorious gowns include homecoming, winter formals and the lineup of holiday parties that beg for something special to wear. That something special could come in the form of a short and sassy cocktail dress, a long and luxurious formal gown, or the designer special, out-of-this-world ball gowns that will have heads spinning in your direction.
Evening dresses are particularly suited for holiday parties, with both demure and outrageous styles to suit your mood and the party’s vibe. A super-formal event may merit a traditional ball gown while a more casual event, or your own sense of style, may inspire you to go fab with a mermaid gown.
In any event, our dresses prime you to look dashing.
Fall and winter trends that consistently hit the red carpet include eye-catching metallics, embellished bodices, and bold and beautiful prints in deep and daring colors. Elle calls the metallic craze the golden child; although you can be equally as radiant in silver or a combination of sparkling hues. Full-on metallic works in body-clinging cuts and short cocktail dresses while metallic accents make a splash on any style of gown.
The Shakespeare-in-love look channels the Elizabethan era with vintage-type brocades, laces and adornments that are even more gorgeous today! Vintage gowns get a modern twist with asymmetrical hemlines, one-shouldered bodices, nude netting and plenty of beads.
Prints are also hot for fall and winter, especially if you dare to go wild in a gown done up in leopard print. Leopard print has been popping up all over the place of late, and it certainly makes a statement on a drop-dead gorgeous gown. Leopard cocktail dresses, high-low dresses and even long formal gowns are part of our collection, as are a number of other exquisite patterns that make jaws drop in any season.
