3. Select the Right Shoes and Accessories

Now that you’ve got your dress, it’s time to add the finishing touches! Start with the right shoes—comfortable, but fashionable enough to complete your look. Whether you choose sparkly heels, satin flats, or something in between, make sure your shoes are perfect for dancing the night away!

Next, pick accessories that complement your dress. Consider earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and even a clutch to keep everything you need on hand.

4. Plan Your Hair and Makeup in Advance, huge part of Prom Preparations! 

To complete your prom look, you’ll want to have your hair and makeup planned out ahead of time. Whether you go for a sleek updo, cascading curls, or a messy bun, make sure your hairstyle complements your dress style.

As for makeup, choose a look that enhances your natural beauty. Bold eyes with neutral lips, or a classic red lip with soft eyeshadow—pick whatever makes you feel fabulous!

Tip:
Not sure where to start with your look? We recommend booking a professional hair and makeup artist for the day of prom. Ask your friends or check with local salons for recommendations and book early to secure your spot.
