Fashion Tip

Before you buy, it is best to always check with friends on what curvy girls wear at your school. In some parts of the United States, including New York and New Jersey. the tradition is for teenage girls to wear short semi-formal dresses to the Junior Prom and save the long formals for their Senior Prom.

Why Choose Short?

• Show off those legs: Short dresses are all about flaunting your fabulous legs and rocking those killer heels.
  

• Dance the night away: Nothing says "party time" like a short and sassy dress that lets you move and groove all night long.
  

• Flirty and fun: Short dresses have a playful, youthful vibe that's perfect for prom and other special occasions.
  

• Versatile style: A short prom dress can be dressed up or down, making it a great addition to your wardrobe even after the big night.

Trend Alert: Short and Sassy Styles for 2026
Our 2026 collection of plus size short prom dresses is packed with the latest trends.

For an extra flirty look with a touch of playful fun, shop for a short formal prom dress with a curled hemline sometimes called a "lettuce" hem. The waves are created when fishing line is twisted though the edge of the hem. The wavy hemline creates a fun effect on and off the dance floor.
