Prom night is your night to totally shine, and you can do that with ease in one of our beautiful and elegant formal prom dresses. This selection of gorgeous prom gowns has the power to make you feel like a princess living in one of those happily-ever-after fairy tales. Even if that sentiment might sound a little corny when you say it aloud, you can keep the thought to yourself as you wow the entire world in one of these dreamy creations.

Our formal and elegant prom dress collection includes pieces from top designers Tony Bowls, , Scala, Clarisse, Jovani, and Blush. The full-length gowns follow suit on what a traditional prom dress was initially designed to be: the most fabulous thing you’ve ever worn in your life!

Ball Gowns

It’s easy to be the belle of the ball when you’re decked out in a ball gown style prom dress. This style features a form-fitting bodice contrasted with a full, sweeping skirt. Traditional wedding dresses often sport the ball-gown cut, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves here!

Jovani jumps on the ball gown style with a brilliant blue leopard print prom dress. The strapless gown includes an embellished sweetheart neckline, waist-slimming black sash, and a subtle yet striking blue leopard pattern. The leopard is toned down by layers of tulle over the skirt, but all eyes will be on you just the same in this striking dress.

Prom dress designer Mori Lee sticks with blue for a ball gown style prom dress, but goes with a soft and sweet blue pastel. The dreamy dress features a satin, strapless sweetheart neckline and beaded embellishments that bedazzle the bodice and asymmetrical overlay on the full skirt. Cinderella has reason to go home by midnight if her competition shows up in something this grand!

Pink is another soft and sweet hue that can add a dreamy feel to an evening, and the strapless light pink ball gown is just the prom dress to go dreamy with. Shimmering beads start out adorning the sweetheart neckline, but they don’t stop there. The embellishment instead cascades down the length of the full, tulle skirt.

The pink strapless prom dress comes with an added bonus of a matching jacket and shawl. The entire ensemble is included in the price. That means you save money and have two options for keeping you warm on a chilly night. It also means you’re not stuck wearing your beat-up jean jacket over a dashing ball gown.

It’s tough to describe the silver and white formal prom dress by Jovani, as too many words come to mind. Dazzling. Breathtaking. Magnificent. Awesome. How about perfect? This eye-catching formal gown features a sweetheart neckline on the strapless bodice, which is also jazzed up with sparkling silver embellishments. The silver embellishments continue to travel down the sides of the waist, creating a kind of raindrop effect. You can bet you’ll be awash with glamour and elegance in this prom gown.

More glamour and elegance comes from another smashing ball gown, this one a Paris white and gold prom dress from designer Tony Bowls. The white, floor-length gown gleams with sophistication, class and gold embellishments throughout the entire piece. A flower at the waistband adds one more delightful detail to truly put it over the top as one of the masterpieces on the prom dress market.

Sizzling Sheaths

The sizzling sheaths in our formal prom dress collection showcase long, lean lines that ensure a powerful statement and equally powerful entrance. Prom dress designers Scala and Terani have particularly sensational selections in the body-hugging sheath collection. Let’s start with the Terani.

Terani absolutely wows in the lean and elegant white full-length prom gown bedecked with silver embellishments on the bust and waistline. The V-neck bodice features thin straps, a V-shaped dipped waist in front and a small peek-a-boo cut-out in the center of the top. The shimmering satin skirt drapes gorgeously to the floor. Are you drooling yet?

Scala hits equally as hard with a floor-length, gold sequin sheath. Hollywood goddess, anyone? The glamorous gold gown features a strapless sweetheart neckline and two cut-outs on the back, making your exit as fabulously grand as your entrance. You’ll look pretty good from the side, too, with a deep slit up the skirt.

Scala’s platinum sequin evening gown gives all the other formal prom dresses a heavy run for their money. It’s tough to resist this shimmering number, which features a V-neck halter top, jeweled empire band, and a geometric sequin pattern throughout its form-fitting skirt.

Other Fabulous Full-Length Gowns

A number of other fabulous full-length gowns are part of our formal prom dress collection. Each has its own unique claim to fame and each would be a glorious choice for channeling your inner princess, or even your inner queen!

Three more exceptional choices come from prom dress designer Clarisse. The bright and breezy charmeuse fabric prom gown has a distinctly feminine feel with a fabulous floral pattern. The tiered, light blue leopard print balances wild with delicate due to the soft, tiered cut and the subtle hues. The dramatic black or purple stretch jersey full-length gown may turn heads so rapidly it may actually strain a couple of necks!
