Picking The Perfect Homecoming Dress

Homecoming is a huge event in any high school, second only to prom. However, while prom is about long trains and elegant gowns, homecoming gives teens a chance to bring out the sequined, satin, knee-length frocks and dance the night away worry-free! But how do you find that elusive perfect dress, and what should you consider when selecting it?

Ideally, a homecoming dress should fall at or just above the knee. Full-length gowns, while appropriate for prom, are a classic homecoming faux pas. Homecoming dresses tend towards tighter, sleek silhouettes and cuts that allow comfortable dancing and movement. However, a bit of tulle or ruffle is perfectly permissible too. 

Homecoming season is just around the corner, so your hunt the perfect homecoming dress should start now. Finding the perfect dress for homecoming is one of the most exciting events of the year! An early start means that more dresses will be in stock, the stores will be less crowded, and if a store doesn't have your size in stock they can ship it in time for homecoming. Now the downside of shopping from a store is that many homecoming dresses look very similar, so chances are, there will be another girl at homecoming with an unfortunately similar dress.

However, for such an occasion, the best thing to do is find a dress online well in advance. Whether you're looking for lace, sequin, high low hem, strapless, one shoulder, ruffled or classics like the little black dresses, make sure you get a homecoming dress that fits your personality and style! 

Here are some cute homecoming dresses that caught my eye -







Did you have a Homecoming ceremony in your school? What did you wear? Which one of these dresses would you wear?

  41. Great post, and great recommended site. I remember when I was in high school, for my graduation ball I wore something from my mom's closet. Recycling is also great. You never know what stuff you'll find in the attic.
