Teenage is not about a casual attitude. Many formal occasions like wedding, graduation times and navy balls require formal clothing. This is the time of your life and surely you would want to look the best.
Assortments are available in varied length, non black formals, experiments in tie ups and necklines, fasteners, foot wear, stockings, make up and hairstyles. No half stories allowed as the complete look is essential. Debutantes in formal sessions can get less comfortable with a little home practice. If it is a graduation-after-party affair then keep it formal and simple. Get the basics of make up right, ask your mom or elder sister to help you practice on the art of eyeliner and lip balms. Do not overdo a hairstyle lest you take away the natural impish charm from your face.
Necklines are halters, scoops, decent V’s and sweethearts too. For winter outings, a contrast shrug or a trench coat matches the style. Prom gowns are elegant wears, Victorian patterns are in. Use a little imagination, sit with your seamstress and get a nice corset done. Do not get it too lacey and do not mimic any thing from the silver screen. Be yourself. Black and white combinations are formal and also archetype. Get more fluidity about a gown, allow movement with A line cuts, simple layers and avoid frills.
Bridesmaid gowns go from powder pink organza ones to other muting shades. The colours and patterns spread warmth and maintain the spirit of the occasion. Keep the clothes with easy patterns and go for Princess and Empire lines as these are classic fashions.
Formal graduation wears come in black and navy blue or brown cloaks. Though loose the fit should not be sloppy. Alterations are an experts job and trials are necessary. Get a chic haircut and slight make up on while you go shopping. This will make you more confident for the award ceremony.
Pageant formals are feminity personified. Go for classic pieces in jewelry and silver or gold combinations work well. Hair styles and Foot wear here are of prime importance. Ideally employ a stylist for a niche piece as the style needs to be set apart. Gauge the colours in hair and also the look for the season before you finalize a dress. It certainly needs to have a good fit and work on toning your body towards it. Enhance your skin tone and complexion to complement your make up.
Smile in plenty and stride with style!
