My sister-in-law made the lavender gown. I still have it tucked away and maybe I should take a photo of it. It would show the detail so much better. Sorry, though...can't model it now!!

I didn't go to prom, but am thrilled that so many of you did. I had no boyfriend and you know, it wasn't acceptable to go alone. I certainly felt wistful back then, but understood that it there are no do-overs; high school is such a unique experience, isn't it? (Often that's a good thing). I did get to make dresses for my daughters for their proms and that was fun. I'm also glad to know that a lot of younger people today go in groups and don't worry so much about pairing up, so if you don't have a date it's no big deal. How nice that they can get dressed up and enjoy the evening.

I admire anyone who sews. And sewing a prom dress is high league, in my opinion. Can you post those pictures, Ellemm?

Hmmm, thanks, but that would take some serious digging. Don't hold your breath! I'll see what I come across.

Here I am... As you might guess, not really... I didn't get to go to prom... this is a pic of our baby's SR prom... haven't fashions changed? and can you believe the dork that took her could coordinate his tie, but not her corsage? Something tells me he didn't know she was going to wear that shade of lipstick!

Wow, gims.
I never went to our high school prom. I never got asked out.
So the "prom" dress thing or the "feeling" of wearing one, didn't occur until I attended my partner's son's wedding. I don't know if this link works for people, but I'm here, in a black strapless dress with tiny rows of pink ribbon trim. With a draped pink chiffony shawl around shoulders. http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=23707&page=2&highlight=black+dress This photo was taken 2 years ago.
