The fabrics are also sort of casual for a pref event. I'd go for something in the vein of the second Dillards dress if it were me. I'm a sucker for a fun neckline though!
Keep in mind if you go for something a little conservative, you can always have fun shoes.
That's what put the kibosh on the first one for me. The skirt looks like it's jersey/sweatshirt material. Comfy but not pref-like.
Also, big WHOO HOOS for suggesting Modcloth!!! They are based out of Pittsburgh.
Lovelovelove Modcloth. A sorority sister sent me to their site and I've been buying from there constantly ever since.

Caution about satiny dresses and inexpensive fabric: they can look too shiny.
Actually......I think I am going to Saks.com...The red dress is stunning.
And you ladies rock...seriously.
I want that red dress so badly and have no excuse whatsoever to buy it...rawr.
