Here is a great alternative to the traditional prom dress: the ruffled salsa dress.  You have probably seen these dresses being worn by celebrities during those televised dance contests — they are very short and often low-cut and have a frilly, ruffled design along the hem edge.  I recommend these salsa dresses because they are excellent for dancing — and most girls will do a fair amount of dancing on their prom night.  Why struggle with big bulky traditional prom dresses that are just not made to move around in?  You’ll be the hit of the party!
