How to Make Sure You Don't Wear the Same Prom Dress as Someone Else

One Special Night to Be the One and Only Special Girl

For most high school girls, one of the biggest activity they're looking forward is probablly the Prom Night party. It's the mother of all dress up parties and it is the night to put on the most glamourous dress and shoes, and get hair and make-up done. During our years in prom dress and evening gown business, we see girls shopping for the perfect Prom dress months in advance. But wait, can you imagine the disappointment if the ultimate nightmare occurs - seeing another girl wearing the exact same dress at Prom?

How to avoid this then?

• You can always look for a new designer dress that you purchase from boutiques, rather than mass chain retail stores or department stores. The advantages of buying your prom dresses at a designer store is obvious: uniquely new, and arguablly better quality and fitness. If the designer does a good job, you can easily stand out from the crowd, because the dress is assumablly made for you. Another advantage, if you think so, is that it makes your prom party more "memorable" because the dress is so costly. :)  Indeed a designer prom dress can easily go to $500+.
  

• An inexpensive alternative is to to look for one of a kind dresses at vintage shops. Sometimes you can find unbelievablly cheap prom dresses of good quality and nice design. This is because some girls sell used dresses to vintage stores and consignment stores, at a fraction of their purchase prices. But a disadvante of vintage shops is they only carry a very limitted styles, and sizes are not complete. In addition, vintage prom dress stores are not easy to find in non metropolis areas.

Then what shall I do then? I'm not willing to pay anything more than $150 for just a night, and I want more choices.

• At NextEve.com, we carry 150+ designs of prom dresses, evening dresses, homecoming dresses, at any given season, and 80% of them are under $100, and %40 are under $70. They are all brand new, and made of matched quality of brand prom gowns (we actually supply dresses to several brand name Evening gown companies). Most importantly, our collections are sold to customers sparsely scattered all over country (probablly the world). So it is basically impossible that someone else is wearing the same dress as you.

In the end, the prom dress shopping experience is what you feel comfortable with and what fits your personality the most. Whether you go for an expensive designer dress from a boutique or a unique find at a vintage store or even a conservative dress found anywhere else, it is all about what makes you look and feel beautiful.
