100 Hot Prom Dresses

From Red Haute Glamour Queens to Vibrant Floral Couture

— February 26, 2011 — Fashion
Prom may seem far away, but it will be here before we know it and girls will be scrambling to find the perfect dress. Whether you want to be ultra-glamorous or eco-friendly, this list has everything from papercraft prom dresses to romantic lace dresses. I'm sure you will find something in this list that will inspire your look on the magical night!

Implications - The ability to create designs that look high-priced without necessarily being expensive ticket items will prove to be lucrative for all industries in the coming years. With society's fixation on luxury merging with an economic downturn, consumers do not want to completely relinquish their high-end taste, and thus, inexpensive alternatives to luxe products are becoming a favorable alternative.
