More on Trend

We finish up today at our first trip for Prom 2011. The prom dresses are even more beautiful this year than last. Yesterday we chatted about Prom Trends for Prom 2011.
The ball gown will be making a comeback in 2011. Full skirted prom dresses have been gaining in popularity in the last couple years and new treatments for 2011, including gorgeous animal bodices, print skirts, and low cut halters can make the choice of a ball gown prom a very sexy choice. Don't make the mistake of thinking all ball gown are sweet little girl dresses, they make a sophisticated red carpet prom look.
If you aren't ready for a full on ball gown, look at A-line styles which will be big again this year. A-lines flatter every body type, from size 2 to 22.

First trip for Prom 2011

It seems like we just wrapped up Prom 2010, which by the way, was absolutely fantastic. (Our best ever.) But, it is already time for us here at Cinderella's Closet to start thinking about Prom 2011. Yesterday the owner and I flew out to Memphis to see Night Moves. Night Moves was a fantastic company last year with beautiful classics and edgy designs, including the gorgeous A308 printed strapless prom dress that was available also as a short prom dress.
Today we have begun the shows for the Prom 2011 line. This is an exciting time as we have the opportunity to see every sample the company has selected. There are more than 600 designs from Night Moves alone, which will be whittled down to the 70-100 pieces that will make up the Prom 2011 Night Moves line. As a leader in the industry, Cinderella's Closet has the chance to shape the trend of prom.
On trend right now: One Shoulder prom dresses are still going to be strong with a new spin of soft shoulder featuring just one cap sleeve. Prints will continue to be a major part of the industry with colors getting more daring and prints bolder. Short prom dresses will continue to grow in importance as more and more girls choose to wear a short prom dress to make dancing more fun. Also, colors this year will be Yellow, Red, Black, Turquoise, and Purple!
Stay tuned we head to the House of Wu on Thursday!!
