Prom Dresses. . . It's A Whole New World

"Girl, I can make you a dress!"

People get so worried that they're gonna get to prom and someone else will be wearing the same thing, they just went out of control with their need to be unique. Foolishness. Awful looking dresses with no lining and piss-poor construction. I have a young relative (in-law, but still...) who wore a prom dress like those in the pics - criss-crossed ribbon, satin (of course) and more skin than the law allowed. Her mom and grandmother thought it was the cutest/sexiest thing. The pic is still on the family's mantle and her prom was two or three years ago. Of course, looking at her life now, prom probably was her shining moment. Shame.
