Fuschia Prom Dresses Make a Statement on Prom Night

While pastel pink is a very soft look for evening wear, fuschia prom dresses make a much stronger statement. This shade is more grown up and a lot sexier than baby pink, and if you decide to go with it for a special occasion look, be prepared to attract a lot of attention to yourself.


This is not a sugar-and-spice type of color, although it is associated with the female gender. Instead, it's more about feeling playful and wanting to have fun. Since prom night is all about letting loose and celebrating, then fuschia is a great choice.


This color is available in a variety of styles of prom dresses for you to choose from. Some of them are quite plain, while other ones have ruffles, beads or sequins added for extra accent.


One lovely choice when it comes to fuschia prom dresses is a silk chiffon gown with a deep plunging neckline. Ruffles and beads draw attention to this portion of the gown and the look is accented by a multi-layered skirt and a deep slit up the front.


The Terani line includes a fuschia halter style prom gown that includes a zebra print belt. This look is sophisticated and very sexy. It is the perfect choice for a young woman who is confident in her style who wants to look her absolute best on a special occasion.


Mori Lee interprets the fuschia prom dress in the form of a soft, satiny gown with a puddle train. The gown is accented with stones and crystals, which draw the eye to the straps and the band that goes around the wearer's back.


If the idea of fuschia prom dresses is just far too much color for you, then keep in mind that fuschia can also be used as a lovely accent color for prom dresses. Consider a stunning black gown with fuschia colored straps. The fuschia theme continues with the addition of a series of beautiful roses on the skirt of the dress and the front slit reveals a fuschia lining to the garment, which also adds interest.


Another beautiful option for fuschia prom dresses is from the Sherri Hill collection. The bodice of this slip-style gown is made of black lace with a criss-cross accent at the waistline. The A-line skirt is a very flattering choice for most women and this is truly a stunning gown.


The Sherri Hill collection also includes a different interpretation of the fuschia skirted prom dress. It features a strapless top with a black and white polka dot pattern. A black bow sets it off quite nicely and the skirt is fitted close to the body with a front slit.


Fuschia prom dresses are not for the woman who wants to fade into the background. For confident young women, it is a beautiful color that will be sure to get them noticed by everyone in attendance at the prom.

Returning a prom dress

Refunds and Exchanges
Think a store is required to give a refund if you want to return an item and have a sales receipt? Wrong!



A store can set its own rules about refunds and exchanges, as long as it lets customers know what the rules are. For example, any of these rules are legal:



“ All Sales Final. NO Refunds or Exchanges”

“ Returns for Store Credit Only”

“ Refunds Given Within 7 Days of Purchase”





So, if there’s a chance you might need to return an item, be sure to check the store’s return policy before you buy it. If you don't see a sign telling what the return policy is, ask a sales clerk.



EXCEPTION: If an item is defective or doesn’t work, the business has to give you a refund or replacement, no matter what its return policy is. That’s a Maryland law.



When buying online, always look for the Web site's return policy and read it before buying.



Always keep sales receipts. They can come in handy even when you might not think so. For example, a teen bought a prom dress for $50 from an outlet store. The receipt said “All Sales Final on Prom Dresses,” so she threw the receipt away. A few days later a friend saw the same dress in the dress store’s main store (not the outlet). It was marked down to $28. She asked if she could exchange her dress for the lower priced one, and they said she could if she had the receipt. She didn’t, and they said, “Sorry!”

Get the prom look

Get the Look

Psssssssssssst. Did you know??? The simpler your prom dresses are, the more accessories you can wear and the more dramatic they can be. Take this and find out if you're doing it or overdoing it. Try your prom dress on with the jewelry and other accents you want to wear to prom.

If it looks really really great, then there is no sense in ruining it by wearing even one more piece of glitz that will destroy the elegance, and beauty of the look. Get your friends' advice to see how others see you. Take a picture! It lasts longer! And then use it to take this most cool make sure you have it perfect!

Make sure you look gorgeous not trashy, elegant not tacky, chic not cheap. Ooo la la!

There is something so subtle and indescribably lovely as seeing someone dressed just right and just so beautiful. Decide: a simple pearl strand and matching earrings? or a fancy necklace? Which hair accessories, gloves or shawl? Remember, you will also be wearing a corsage, which in itself is another accessory to harmonize with you and your prom or homecoming dress and shoes and hairdo!

If, on the other hand you have chosen a prom dress with a lot going on, lots of sequins, shimmer, shininess, ruffles, puffiness, flounce, lace etc. you will need to wear little or no jewelry. Maybe some simple dangle earrings, that match the shimmer in your dress. Or maybe just a diamond solitaire necklace will be all that you need to look ravishing. Less really can be more. If your flouncy dress is going to be matched with a lot of romantic curls, a pair of filagree earrings will be all you need to be the belle of the ball

Loose 15 pounds for your prom dress

Look 15 pounds Slimmer

Remember, the prom dress may be stunning on the hanger or the model. What you want is for it to look stunning on you, so you must choose the best prom dress for your body type. Here's how:

First determine your body measurements; do this with no clothes on the best accuracy. Use a cloth measuring tape, carefully measure your bustline, your waistline, and your hips at their widest point. Write these three numbers on a piece of paper.

Next determine your body type. If your bust, and hips are close in size and your waistline has very little indentation when you look at yourself in the mirror, you have what is called an H body type, straight up and down. Scroll down to see how you can add curviness to your body type.

If your waist the largest measurement, of the three, you have a round body type. Scroll down to find how to minimize the roundness your body type.

An A body type has a small bustline, average waist and larger hips. You can see tips on how to balance the bustline and hip measurements.

An hourglass body type will have large bustline, curvy hips, and a narrow waist. See how to make your figure look elegant and classy!

H Body Type Your job in finding the perfect dress is to accentuate the bust line or shoulder area as well finding a dress with draping around the hipline Princess seams, slip dresses, A-lines, and empire waists, bell, long-fitted or ruffled sleeves will help you accomplish this. Avoid strapless prom dresses.

Round Body Type Look for dresses that de-emphasize the middle, such as drop waist or no waist dresses. Accentuate your gorgeous legs and slender arms with shoes, hosiery or a long strand of pearls.

A Body Type: Your challenge is to emphasize the upper body as well as the waistline to balance the disproportion. Do this by wearing large dangly earrings or a dress with eye catching upper body details! Make sure your bodice details are full enough to accentuate the upper body

Hourglass Body Type Your body type is the most womanly; so you want to dress in a more modest way to avoid the tendency of looking tacky or trashy. Dressing your figure in a classic style, can look absolutely fabulous because you are already balanced in a super feminine way!

15 Ways to Look 10 Pounds Thinner!
Monochrome-a dress all in one color elongates the body, making you look slimmer.

Dark muted colors make you look thinner. Not everyone should wear black, so think shimmery deep gray, silver, wine, raisin, burgundy, forest green, russet, midnight blue, golden brown, cocoa, cranberry, eggplant. Try our free color analysis!

Neutral colors, black, silver, gray, beige, taupe, gold, will make you appear taller and more slender.

Long straight skirts or prom dresses - be sure the skirt is not too tight around your behind!

Vertical lines in fabric or pattern. Overall effect is up/down

Materials that skim along the contour of your body, not clingy.

Slight empire waist makes your lower body look longer.

Matching shoes - or shoes that are the same tone as your dress

Heels-give the illusion of length to the leg

Hosiery that is as dark as the dress and shoes=one long l i n e

Long necklace-or no necklace at all will make the neck look longer and slimmer

Low cut dress makes the neckline appear longer- too low is trashy, be cautious.

Hair that is pulled back or swept up off the neck, updo!

Slim long, simple sleeves or

Fabrics that drape and move with the body, think: soft, fluid, graceful movement

15 Things to avoid

Two tone dresses-one color up top and one color down below cuts the sleek line in half

Belts and frilliness at the widest part of your torso

Bright or pastel colors in the dress. Clear, pure colors like red, blue, yellow, orange, green, purple tend to add pounds. Use these colors in your accessories, like shawl, earrings, barrettes, glitter in the hair. Sparkles or sequins on the dress are ok as long as it doesn't cover the entire body.

Horizontal lines in the cut or the fabric.

Fabrics that cling or are too tight, makes you look chubby

Fluffy, flouncy, ruffly gathered skirts, add pounds

Contrasting shoes-if your shoes are lighter or darker than your dress add 5 pounds.

Chunky shoes - make the legs look chunky, too

Light colored hosiery, breaks the line from prom dress to shoe

Busyness at the neckline, like big jewelry or ruffles

Hair hanging down over the neck breaks up the sleekness of the neck Think updo!

Full sleeves

Stiff or bulky fabric

Shiny material like satin, all-over sequins taffeta, metallics-save metallics for accessories.
