A great way to start off in looking of a Unique prom dress is to look at bridesmaid dresses to find a dress no one else will be wearing to prom. Most people look for "prom" dresses and never think to check out dresses for weddings. Even if you do purchase a prom dress there are many things you can do to it to make it unique and one of a kind.

Purchase a simple long dress and then start to add pearl trim, sparkly cording or sew on beads or sequins to make it look totally different.

A way to make a dress look different is to make a large sash that goes around the waist. It only takes about 1 or 2 yards of material that is cut double the width you want it to be. Fold it over and sew down the side that is open with one fourth inch seam and sew on each end leaving about 2 inches open at one end. Once sewn you just have to pull the sash inside out through the hole then sew that up by hand. Iron it flat and tie it about the waist.

Use contrasting colors or complementary colors. A pink dress is enhanced with a dark pink or gray. A black dress can handle a bold color like red or purple. A white prom dress will go with just about anything. Blue dresses might look great with a gold or different shade of blue sash. Match the sash with your dates tux cummerbund.

Another way to have something unique is to get a satiny full long skirt in black. Wear a top that has lots of sparkle or lace or bet a bustier and wear it with a simple top. If you dare find a bubble skirt to wear on the bottom or pants that look like a long dress.

You are unique as a person so make sure your uniqueness is exemplified at your prom. Get a unique prom dress or alter a regular dress to make it different. Make sure it is a good representation of your unique personality.
