If there’s any occasion that merits going glam, it’s prom. To find out what’s hot this year, T&S asked Bry Rechan, a junior at Clayton High School, for her top prom picks.
Rock red shoes with a short dress for maximum impact. A monogrammed necklace adds a nice personal touch.

A white dress serves as a clean backdrop for funky accessories like jewel-tone shoes and chunky bracelets. Plus, it’s a great way to show off a tan!

Mesh trim provides a fresh update on the classic floor-length column dress. The long skirt allows you to add height with a heel, while a linked-crystal bracelet adds bling.

Be fashion-forward with a one-shoulder gown with a high-low hemline. Glittery drop earrings and heels complete this elegant look.
