Ugly prom dress

Seakay

I found this article - lots of prom dresses with ruffles. Be grateful she doesn't want the slinky and slit to the thigh options!

Ooh, I like that dark red one.

Am I too old and fat to wear it?

Thank heavens there were no proms in my day - or my children’s day, for that matter. It seems so competitive.

At university we had formal hall dances which were sort of equivalent, and more or less compulsory, awkward if you didn’t have a particular boyfriend to partner you. We used to have a prize for “Going to the formal with the worst man”.

Our girls' school had an end of year dance with the boys' school.
It was always quite an awkward occasion, boys sat at one end of the hall and girls at the other for the first half of the evening before a boy might pluck up courage to ask a girl to dance!

If she likes it that's all that matters. And she won't look like everyone else either.

I'd be delighted she's not following the herd and has her own sense of style. My grandson is 12 and certainly doesn't have the run of the mill haircut and boring glasses - hus curls are dyed blind and he wears huge glasses. He doesn't care what anybody thinks - good for him & for your grand daughter
