This week's prom trend is one of our favorites because we love seeing different patterns and innovative looks every year. Printed dresses are so creative and are always fresh since there's so many different ways to wear the trend! A print dress will always be a showstopper; whether it's animal print or polka dots, you'll be sure to have the most memorable dress of the night!

Printed dresses can either work with your figure or go against it, depending on the pattern and your body shape and height. So, just make sure to pick a pattern that suits your body type. If you find the right printed dress, it can be super figure flattering. Below are some of our favorite new patterned dresses for Prom 2013 - they are all great looks that certainly take the boredom out of a solid color dress!

Finding the perfect prom dress is of course a very important (and sometimes difficult) task. And, every girl unquestionably dreams of wearing the most fashionable frock on prom night. If you could choose your dress right off the Fashion Week Runway, who wouldn't jump at that chance?? That's why we loved Teen Vogue Magazine's latest article -  they sat down with some of fashion's stars to talk all about prom memories and what they wore! The models they talked to were Karlie Kloss, Ali Stephens, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Andie Arthur, and Kelly Mittendorf, and all of their stories were great. We especially loved Jacquelyn's and Karlie's stories, though - check them out below!

 

Jacquelyn Jablonski, pictured ready for prom in her white dress in Teen Vogue's image above, is a model from Rissy Roo's home state - New Jersey! She started her modeling career at just 15 years old, so she was always up to date on the biggest trends to wear at prom. She has been a model in campaigns for many famous designers, such as Givenchy, Pucci, Hermes, J. Crew, Tommy Hilfiger, and Max Mara. She's even been a part of H&M and Gap's campaigns!

When Jacquelyn talked to Teen Vogue about prom, she said:

"I chose a white dress. I decided on white because I had worn a mint green dress the year before and felt like everyone wears color. Also, I could accessorize more with white—I wore my mom's big vintage necklace."

That's definitely great advice to keep in mind for those who love accessorizing - going with a more simple dress can mean more room for fun jewelry and shoes!

Karlie Kloss, pictured all dressed up for prom on the left in Teen Vogue's photo above, started modeling at 14 years old, so she always got to take her fashion knowledge to prom, too! She is ranked on the Top 50 Models Women list by Models.com, and Vogue Paris named her one of the top 30 models of the 2000s. So, you can guess that just like Jacquelyn, she's modeled for the best of the best in the fashion industry - Christian Dior, Lacoste, Alexander McQueen, Yves Saint Laurent, Oscar de la Renta, and many more.

As far as prom goes, Karlie told Teen Vogue:

"It was special to be able to wear dresses fresh off the runway to my high school dances! Even though nobody else ever knew who or what I was wearing, I did, and it always made me feel like a princess."

We're sure Karlie truly did look like a princess! If you want to read more from Karlie and Jacquelyn and the other models Teen Vogue talked to, check out their "Our Favorite Models Tell Us About Their Prom Looks" article.

The last prom trend we discussed was the increasingly popular short dresses trend. This week, it's all about the hi lo (or, high low) trend. For those of you who are a little iffy about the short dress look, hi lo is a little bit of both! The hi lo trend is super chic, and some may say a more elegant way to show off your legs!

Since hi lo is such a popular trend, there's many dresses out there to get the look: from sparkly, to print, to neon. Our favorites for this year are below:

Another type of hi lo dress that everybody is crazy about has two looks in one: the classic short dress + the hi lo style. How is this possible, you ask? Detachable skirts! Getting a dress that can be used in different ways is so genius! It's like buying two for the price of one. You can wear the detachable skirt for prom and then when you're heading over to the after prom party...just take it off! Or, you can even get more use out of the dress and wear it without the detachable skirt for another event. You decide!

1. La Femme 18872 Aqua Hi-Lo Dress - A gorgeous sequined strapless cocktail dress with rhinestone trim and an elegant detachable chiffon skirt. A perfect dress that transforms for multiple uses.

2. Sherri Hill 21165 - A classy and elegant strapless lace dress with a detachable tulle skirt in coral. Great for going from your prom to an after party!

St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner, and that means it's time to put lots of green on! We love this holiday of course because it's a perfect excuse to wear a cute dress. When it comes to showing some St. Paddy's Day pride, your look doesn't have to be head-to-toe green, but with Emerald Green being the 2013 Color of the Year, could you ask for a better time to show off your on-trend style? We didn't think so. Nothing says St. Patrick's Day better than a Little Green Dress, so check out our favorites for the holiday below!

Our favorite dress for St. Patrick's day is Sherri Hill style 21131 in lime green. The neon green color is so perfect for standing out in the sea of green that you're bound to be in on this day, and the bandage fabric is super figure flattering. Best of all, since neon is so on-trend right now, it's the perfect dress to wear time and time again in the spring and summer months.

If neon isn't your thing and you'd rather go with a darker green dress, La Femme style 15907 is a great option.  It's a net pleated short dress with a V shaped front and back. The toned-down green color makes it easy to wear for any other event you may have once St. Patrick's Day has come and gone.

Want to rock the Color of the Year, Emerald Green? Sparkle style 71192 is not only good for that, but also for getting two looks in one! This fun and flirty hi-lo cocktail dress features a strapless neckline, all over sequin body and a removable short tulle over-skirt with a satin bow at the waist. What a perfect way to not only have a dress for St. Paddy's Day, but to rock the on-trend look at Prom, too!

Hopefully this St. Patrick's Day will be a warm one, but if it's cold, wearing black stockings with your dress is a great way to finish off the look and stay a little warmer for the day.

Are there many things that we like more than prom and Pretty Little Liars? We don't think so! We've been keeping up with Ashley on PLL, and of course we're obsessed with all of the Faviana prom dresses that she modeled in. But, now she's on the April 2013 cover of Seventeen Magazine! As part of the feature article, Seventeen sat down with her at the Faviana headquarters in NYC to get the scoop on her favorite looks for prom, PLL, and her new film, Spring Breakers.

When it came to prom looks, we were so surprised to hear that Ashley has never even been to prom before! When Seventeen asked what style dress she'd wear to prom, she answered:

"I actually never went to prom before! I would probably wear a short, fun dress. Faviana is a line that girls can feel super-glamorous in. A lot of their designs are kind of based off of what celebrities wear on the red carpet!"

We can agree with her on that - Faviana definitely has some super glamorous dresses!

As far as PLL goes, Ashley's inside scoop on the season finale is getting us way too excited to find out what happens already:

"Well, we find a body. We don't know if it's dead or alive. Also, we get trapped in a house with "A" and all the helpers. There's a big fire that happens. We all kind of get near death. As always!"

To get a behind the scenes look at the April 2013 Seventeen cover shoot, make sure to watch this cute video with Ashley:

You may remember us mentioning Faviana style 7182 in our Best Dressed Celebrities of 2012 blog post that we wrote back in January. Jennifer Lawrence rocked a similar gold dress during the Hollywood premiere of the Hunger Games, and we loved the look so much that we made her one of our favorite four celebrity looks of 2012!

Because we love Faviana style 7182 so much, this time we want to give the dress its own special spotlight! It's a sexy foil jersey mermaid style evening gown with mesh details. It comes in colors Oscar Gold, Sapphire, and Silver.

One of the reasons we love the dress so much is because Jennifer isn't the only celeb known for rocking such a similar style. Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson wore the actual dress in the Sapphire color for a photo shoot she did with Faviana! Check out two of the shots below.

Even though we didn't include Kristen Stewart in our Best Dressed at the 2013 Oscars blog post earlier this week, we were still absolutely in love with her look! We were especially impressed with her style considering she was stuck on crutches for the night!

The white lace gown look has definitely been a popular trend lately, and will continue to be for Prom 2013. There's a lot of different options as far as getting Kristen's look for prom, but we especially love La Femme style 18951. It's a gorgeous white lace mermaid dress with a trumpet silhouette, sweetheart neckline, lace bodice, and flared sheer skirt. Best yet, if white isn't really your color of choice, it also comes in black and red.

Prom season is finally here and every week we are posting the most popular trends of this year! This week, it's all about sequins! This old Hollywood look has been making a comeback, and is definitely a show stopper. If you want to stand out from the crowd, this trend is a great choice!

Check out our favorite sequin dresses below:

1. Flirt by Maggie Sottero P7782 Sequin Evening Gown - This sequin gown features a unique cowl neckline and a sexy low back with criss-cross straps making it an equally stunning exit.

Finding a dress that has the always popular high slit is a great way to infuse some extra sexiness to the sequin look. You'll certainly grab everyone's attention! With this trend, you might want to tone down the jewelry. Too much glam can be overkill!

1. Primavera 9500 Fuchsia Evening Gown - Dance the night away in this sequin embellished dress with low open back and straps, hi slit, and slight trail.

2. La Femme 18918 Black Evening Gown - Gorgeous sequined gown with a sweetheart neckline, beautiful rhinestone belt at the natural waist and a slit on the side.
