Prom Dresses Under $100 are definitely Prom 2009's biggest secret...

If you look online, you'll see tons of designer dresses for mroe than 300 buck, but who can spend that kind of money when there's

I highly recommend that you shop early (shopping in March is VERY common). No, this isn't me trying to get you to buy a dress early, but it is a reality that lots of of the nice dresses and dress sizes sell out early... very early in the prom season.

You won't be happy if you go online to find a prom dress, expecting to save money or to get a specific dress, only to find that that dress is on back order, or is sold out in your color, size, or style. It does happen quite frequently, and girls that wait too long often get shut out of the dresses that they're looking for.

If you shop early enough, you'll also have time for alterations to the dress. Even though some internet sites have dress size calculators and places to help you figure out in your measurements, when you get the dress in your hands, the numbers may not match up and the dress may not fit like you want it to. This could be either because you deceived yourself when you put your measurements into the website (i.e. you didn't WANT to believe that your bust was a 36 when in fact it's a 38), or maybe you've gained or lost weight or have been exercising, or perhaps the particular dress you purchased runs smaller than other styles. The list goes on and on, so definitely make sure that your dress fits the way you want it to, and it doesn't bunch up or make you uncomfortable so you can have a fantastic night full of GOOD memories, not itchy and scratchy ones.

What's worse that going to prom night with a dress that just doesn't work with your body and work with you? If you're uncomfortable, how will you dance? How will you eat and move around the room, talk to your friends and your prom date without thinking constantly thinking about your dress? What if you have to fix your dress by pulling it up or down, or moving it around fifty times during your prom? That would really suck, so please take some good advice and order early. Have enough time for alterations, accessories and to shop for everything you need.
