The main event in the life of every schoolgirl is graduation ball. From the variety of outfits offered by stores, it is full of eyes. “Which one to choose,” every girl who finishes the 9th or 11th grade asks herself. We propose to consider an option consisting of two main elements - a skirt and a top.
A few words in defense of the separate kit
Why do we recommend not a prom dress, but a top and a skirt? There are several reasons.
Firstly, if you buy a dress that does not fit perfectly on the figure, then it will require adjustment, and this is not possible for every master, especially if the model consists of many relief details or has complex draperies.
And here is the second reason why we prefer a set of a skirt and a top: it is customary to sew an outfit for a prom by a dressmaker. It costs a lot of money, besides, a good master usually has long queues during this period, and the most ordinary seamstress is able to sew a top and a skirt. Savings are also possible when buying material - half a meter of fabric is enough for a top, so,even expensive French lace made of natural silk will not leave the family budget stranded, and the outfit will look expensive and status.
Our third argument also concerns savings. Separate elements of the costume can later be completed with other things - practical girls will agree with this.
Well, there is no need to remind you that a composite prom suit of a skirt and top can look like a dress if it is sewn from the same fabric. This is clearly visible in our photographs.
Black top and red skirt
This costume is a clear confirmation of the validity of the arguments in favor of a separate set.
Since a suit of a skirt and top at the prom should look as impressive as possible, the combination of red and black in this sense will be a win-win. Luxurious lace does not require any additional jewelry, except for earrings. A clutch bag can be either red or black, or contrasting, for example, gold, silver, even turquoise or purple. With such a bold combination, special attention will have to be paid to shoes. Beige or flesh-colored shoes will fit perfectly into the set. According to the latest fashion trends, shoes should be beige or the same color as the top or long skirt. At the prom for such a skirt, it is worth sewing a long crinoline. Made of hard tulle, it will give the silhouette a sculpture and add charm to the figure.
Lace top and tulle skirt
Owners of slender thin legs can affordskirt above the knees.
A multi-layered tulle skirt, a la tutu, and a lace top - an outfit that will be noticed by everyone. This is a rather original solution for a prom costume. Tailoring a skirt will not be difficult even for a completely inexperienced dressmaker - the whole secret is in a large amount of matter. It will take about 10 meters for such a 50 cm long skirt with a fabric width of 120 cm. As for the top, it will take no more than half a meter of lace of the same width as the tulle. The cover for the top is best made from fabric of the same color as the skirt.
Red Suit
Slender blonde or bright brunette will look amazing in a split top and skirt dress.
At the prom, this set will make a splash. A fitted top and a full skirt will visually reduce the waist, while flesh-colored shoes will make the legs even longer. A brave girl can wear shoes of a more eccentric color - green or blue. The top shown in the photo has deep American armholes. It is made of lace and doubled with lining fabric of the same color. The skirt consists of four tiers of matte fabric.
Turquoise fitted suit
The sky turquoise color suit is a crop top and a skirt.
For the prom it is worth considering as an option for a stylish outfit in a trendy color. The adjacent silhouette suits many, and the narrow strip of skin peeping throughunder the top, add sexuality to it and soften the overall severity of the set. When choosing a crop top, do not forget that the skirt should have a high belt. Firstly, modern fashion dictates this, and secondly, due to the fact that the line of the top edge of the skirt is high enough, the legs seem longer.
Dior silhouette
This kit only at first glance seems strict and everyday.
This is how it looks only in the photo. At the solemn event dedicated to the presentation of graduation diplomas, it will be very appropriate. The feminine silhouette is supported by the large neckline of the jersey top, and sheer tulle strips, sewn with ribbons along the lower third of the skirt, make the costume even sexier. If the figure of a girl is not distinguished by the slenderness of a fashion model, then even in this suit she will resemble an hourglass. If you decide on this skirt and top suit, then we recommend wearing slimming lingerie under it for prom.
Embroidered suit
The luxurious red suit shown in the photo is not difficult to sew at all.
Tulle is needed for the skirt, and for the top it is enough to buy a plain fabric of the same color. It is easy to repeat exquisite embroidery. You need to find a drawing with a similar plot and take it along with the fabric to the sewing workshop. There it will be embroidered with silk threads. Since when embroidering with a machine, the fabric is duplicated with a special gasket, it will turn out to be quite rigid and will not requireadditional strengthening.
In this case, the suit has an extreme red color, but if it does not suit you, buy a fabric that matches the color of your eyes, skin and hair better.
Drop skirt
Purchasing a suit from a top and a floor-length skirt for prom, you can afford options that you would not dare to use for everyday wear.
Stylish drop skirts rarely look complimentary. An exception is a solemn event, where the elongated back of the skirt gives the impression of a train. We have selected the most interesting model. The silhouette of this skirt resembles a bell. It is two-layer, along the hem two rows of fishing lines are fixed. During the movement, the skirt sways very beautifully. The lines are quite soft, and do not interfere with the fabric to lie down in elegant waves. A loose crop top that reveals a narrow strip of leather at the waist, finished with natural scallops. Sewing such an original and feminine costume is not at all difficult.
Another version with a length difference
In this case, the length drop is used for the top.
It is quite wide at the bottom, and the long skirt, on the contrary, is very narrow at the waist. This technique is used to create the impression of a wasp waist. The golden color of the skirt and the deep blue shade of the top are a combination that is always popular with fashion designers. These two colors always attract attention. With everyday wear, they quickly become boring due to their brightness anda kind of magnetism, and perfect for a festive event.
Vanguard set
This costume will suit a temperamental girl, a fan of the avant-garde.
The sharp lines of a black and white top are softened by the soft waves of a long black chiffon skirt with a different length of the hem. Pair it with lightweight, high-heeled long gladiator boots to keep it stylish. Jewelry should be large, plastic, and made in a minimalist manner - so they will support the overall style of the costume. In this case, it will look like a haute couture model.
Feminine suit dress
The option presented below is the exact opposite of the previous one. It can be called the personification of femininity and chastity.
The smoky blue dress actually consists of a top and a floor-length skirt. Wear it to prom with high heels. Their color should repeat the shade of the fabric of the dress or be neutral beige. The clutch is suitable for any color from the cold palette. The expensive lace of the upper part of the dress is an ornament in itself, so a necklace or pendant will not be in place here, but you will have to think carefully about the hairstyle. We offer to dye your hair using a new technology and make lamination on them.
Lolita Suit
This adorable skirt and top prom set would surely win the heart of some modern Humbert.
Delicate turquoise fabrics, embroidery with flowers, a narrow strip of leather between the skirt and top will not leave anyone indifferent. To make the skirt more magnificent, you need to put on a multi-layered tulle crinoline under it. Flowers in her hair and pastel makeup complete the image of a young seductress. This costume can be recommended only to a fragile and short girl. For stately beauties, we have a more suitable option.
Costume for an excellent student
These two prom pieces, a skirt and a top, will add a few extra years to a girl, but it's not scary for the young ladies we dress up for a special occasion.
They are so young that formal clothes and discreet makeup cannot harm them. A gray pleated skirt with a burgundy top, massive gold jewelry and a leopard clutch will only confirm the serious nature of their owner. In a general photo, such a girl will look her best. As for the further use of the kit, then, being broken into its constituent elements, it will serve her for several more years.
Champagne Red Wine Set
Very grown-up colors of this set should not be intimidating.
The combination of delicate beige and velvety burgundy has long been a style classic. We recommend this set for tall girls with a corpulent physique. A long skirt with numerous thin vertical pleats will make the figure thinner. The same task will be served by exquisiteneckline. The fact that the kit consists of two opposite colors is also very good - thanks to this contrast, the girl's height will seem smaller.
Fluffy skirt
Ostrich feather skirt is every girl's dream.
To appear in it at graduation is a real happiness. But this option is not cheap. The most beautiful skirt, such as, for example, in our photo, will be very expensive. It can be worn with a simple top, complementing it with massive jewelry. If the option with exotic bird feathers is not suitable, then, as an alternative, you can suggest making a skirt from beaded or silk fringe. The effect will be about the same as from bird feathers, but much more budgetary.
