A prom dress is like the wedding gown of high school girls. Some take months planning what to wear in this momentous evening, also considered a rite of passage.

The prom season is usually frolicking in pastel confection of poufy and satiny cloth, sashaying the halls of a dreamy ballroom. Young girls in soft, sorbet-hued layered dresses are always a delightful sight, like seeing a modern Marie Antoinette swarmed in macarons and other French pastries.

Pastels are usually the main choice for prom as they are the colors that enhance, accentuate, and add a romantic appeal to the youthful glow on teens.

Just like the joy in every cake slice, pretty pastels also bring us back to the divine sweetness of our youth — back in the carefree days when calories didn’t figure. While prom fashion has gotten a bit sexier nowadays, with skirt lengths cut right at the knee, most designers have maintained the dainty take by frosting on cotton candy shades with semi-precious stones, floaty feathers, lace, floral applique and other ultra-feminine broderie.
