Opt for a corset and skirt combination.

Do you know what is the best way to sport an alternative style in a formal event like the prom? Well, we do! We say that you ditch the one-piece long gown style and opt for something more versatile and alternative like the skirt and corset combination. The best thing about this option is that a fitted corset can work well with just about any designs, shapes and types of skirt. You can choose from A-Line to serpentine, to bustles to laces to fishtail skirt that hugs your body real tight. You can also choose from long to midi skirts.  Because of this, you are free to wear any skirt that will suit your body shape and personal style well.

Go with color.

Just because you like gothic, it doesn’t mean that you should only stick with the black color. If you love to try out something new, then we recommend that you experiment with it. You can choose from other hushed shades like dark blue, purple, gold and the likes. If you opt to go with something bright and colorful and just let your accessories do the talking which lead us to the next tip…

Opt for unique, dramatic and out-of-this-world accessories.

For prom jewelry, do not just go for the elegant ones. Keep in mind that prom is one of the best nights of your highschool life so let your freak flag fly. Aside from necklaces and earrings, one of the best accessories that you can wear is the septum ring. If you think that having your septum pierced is too painful, we recommend choosing a fake septum ring instead.
