Prom Night Perfection: How to Style Your Date to Impress

Writer's picture: Lela RobinsonLela Robinson

Back in '95, '96, and '97, prom season was a whole living the 90's dream vibe! I was "that girl" with a jam-packed social calendar, invited to not one, not two, but three different proms. Yep, you heard that right! See, I went to so many different highschools, I lost count! Living it up in Atlanta, we didn't have fancy schmancy social media to keep us connected. Nah, we relied on good ol' fashioned beeper/pager numbers to message each other.

Now, let me tell you about those after-parties – they were legendary! Picture this: we'd roll up to the Varsity restaurant, either by Marta train or in a rental luxury car. Yeah, luxury rental cars were just starting to become a thing back then, and we felt like the coolest kids on the block cruising in style.

Once inside, it was all about dancing, snapping pics, and indulging in some seriously good grub. I'm talking sushi, pizza, burgers, fries, you name it – we ate until we were ready to burst! But the party didn't stop there. Oh no, we'd find ourselves at an after after-party, sipping on wine coolers and devouring desserts until the early hours.

Those prom nights were the stuff of dreams – filled with laughter, friendship, and unforgettable memories. And even though social media wasn't a thing, we didn't need it. We had each other's backs and a whole lot of love to keep us connected.


Prom night is a special occasion that calls for unforgettable style from head to toe. While you've likely spent hours planning your own outfit, don't forget to coordinate with your date to create a stunning and cohesive look that will turn heads all night long. Here are some tips on how to style your date for prom and make a lasting impression.



  1. Coordinate Colors: Start by coordinating colors with your date's outfit to ensure a harmonious and polished look. Consider complementary colors or matching accents to tie your looks together seamlessly. Whether it's matching ties and pocket squares or coordinating dress hues, a cohesive color scheme will elevate your overall aesthetic.

  2. Dress to Impress: Encourage your date to dress to impress in attire that reflects their personal style and complements the formality of the occasion. For gentlemen, a well-fitted suit or tuxedo paired with polished shoes and accessories will exude confidence and sophistication. Ladies can opt for elegant dresses that flatter their figure and make a statement with stylish accessories and footwear.

  3. Consider Theme and Venue: Take into account the prom theme and venue when selecting outfits for you and your date. Whether it's a glamorous Hollywood-inspired affair or a romantic garden setting, choose attire that aligns with the theme and setting to create a cohesive and memorable look.

  4. Pay Attention to Details: Don't overlook the importance of details when styling your date for prom. From grooming and hair styling to selecting the perfect accessories, paying attention to the finer details will elevate your overall look and leave a lasting impression. Encourage your date to experiment with hairstyles, jewelry, and other accessories to add personality and flair to their ensemble.

  5. Embrace Confidence: Above all, remind your date to embrace confidence and authenticity on prom night. A genuine smile and positive attitude will enhance any outfit and make you both shine brighter on the dance floor. Encourage each other to relax, have fun, and enjoy the magic of prom night together.



Styling your date for prom is an opportunity to showcase your creativity and attention to detail while creating unforgettable memories together.


By coordinating colors, selecting stylish attire, and embracing confidence, you and your date will be ready to make a stylish entrance and dance the night away in style.
