Prom is a celebration of the woman you have become. It is the mark of bittersweet endings and of brand-new beginnings. The flush and awkwardness of childhood and adolescence are about to be left behind and you are about to step into your power as a female of infinite potential.
Prom is about making memories with friends who have been with you throughout high school. It’s a farewell. It’s also an exploration of how your style has evolved. Everyone loves a chance to be elegant and to take their daily life and ramp it up to radical. Whether you choose to rent a limo some other extra fancy treat, the special clothes you choose for the occasion are going to stick with you.
Gone are the days where everyone is expected to look like Cinderella at the ball in a hoop skirt that extends in all directions. All of that material and fabric all over the place is just not everyone’s thing. Further, in a lot of areas of the country, by May or June (a.k.a. prom season), it’s hot out! Maybe you’ve spent your senior year high on track season and you’ve got legs to impress that deserve to be shown off for the mark of your dedication and commitment to your health that they are. Maybe you’re all about the shoes. We’re going to talk about short dresses today and why they are the ultimate prom phenom!

1. Show some leg, and then some more leg with a sexy side slit or two.
Let’s get something straight: You’re not going to wear the shortest little dress imaginable and then spend your entire night keeping your legs crossed and being careful about how you sit. You’re going to pop on a pair of little black shorts underneath so you can dance all night long. Your legs didn’t get toned from sitting around looking ladylike. Wear a short dress so you can cast all your cares to the wind and dance your heart out.
2. Short dresses accent your shoes.
Are you all about dangerously high heels? Do you revel in the shape of your legs when you are wearing your favorite pair of stilettoes? Are you gaga for fishnets or some other equally daring leg accents? That’s why the short prom dress is for you. Prom dresses by Tobi will hook you up.
3. It’s all about the top details.
Whether you’re for long sequined sleeves or a plunging neckline or a number that shows off your wings and the beautiful expanse of your back, a mini skirt can be just the right balancing complement.
4. Flared or Fitted, etc.
So, you’ve decided on a short little number. You’ve got options. You can go ice skater style with a flare and a flutter to the skirt that kicks up a little when you twirl. You can go A-line to celebrate the sloping arcing curve of your waist, hips and booty. You can go for a little bit of draping and a wrap style. There is all manner of dangerously high slits in stock now– From triangular and wide to double slits to something that happens naturally when fabric wraps.
No matter what version of short dress you choose, glorify in the powerful, feminine shape of your legs. All of those squats at the gym feel so worth it when you look this bold!
