Start Searching Early
You will get a few months to find your perfect homecoming dress; so, start early. Starting early will benefit you in terms of no crowd in shops, more dresses in stock and more choice for you, and also if they have just the right pattern and color you want, but not of your size, they can ship your right size by the time of homecoming.
You Should Choose the Correct Length and Cut
A homecoming dress is perfect if it is knee-length or just above. It tends to have more sleek silhouette and cut which should enable you to dance freely. You can include some ruffles or tulle. Some kind of support like straps is also advisable. If it’s strapless, ensure that the fitting is flawless. Manage to have a dress which is fun and sleek, but it should not make you worried while you are dancing.
Color and Pattern
Homecoming is traditionally a late autumn event and so, summery flowers, bright colors and tie-dye patterns are not ideally for homecoming dresses. Ideal colors are ivories, whites, blacks and metallic shades, and fun options like animal print, or even an elegant, dark brocade is perfect.
Suitable to Your School
Though your homecoming dress should be fun, remember to have it just suitable to your school and so, avoid extravaganza like all-through sequins or too many runaway ruffles or other detailed ornamentation. If there is a stringent dress code in your school like “no sleeveless dress”, make it a point to cover your shoulders with a shrug or shawl, or pair it with a chic coat.
Show Your Personal Style
Let your personal style be revealed in your homecoming dress, because it needs a skill to show it through the limited colors and patterns allowed in a homecoming dress. Are you fun, quirky, creative? Details like ruffles, tulle or bows may make your perfect dress. Are you brash and outgoing? A stunning one-shoulder or animal print will denote you correctly. Success lies in making apt use of the elements and looking truly you.
Perfect Accessories
You are done with your perfect homecoming dress! Now it’s time for choosing the right accessories. They should accentuate the beauty of you and your dress. If you have an open neckline, a stunning necklace or a sparkling bracelet may make a statement. While choosing shoes, comfort should be given the first priority. It’s advisable to choose a low or medium heel.
