Perfect for today's girls. That's how they see themselves.

I love the second dress (deep pink?) and the blue dotted swiss. So feminine. The others are okay, but nothing I'd want to wear.

I am not a fan of the dropped sleeves on any of the gowns. However, the gowns are pretty in style an colors. The blue short dress and long white fitting gown are my favorites.

I like the floor length soft pink chiffon with the dropped shoulders the best.

But the others are nice too, for various young women who like those choices.

Gee, so many styles are 'in' now-a-days.

Somewhat different than years and years ago.

Seeing a lot of bold colors this year. Not so many pastels.

I cannot imagine a high school girl showing up to prom in some of these dresses. Some of them look like gowns you'd see pageant ladies wear.

If I had a daughter, I wouldn't purchase most of these dresses for her.

I went to a catholic high school so I wouldn't have been allowed through the door in most of these. I would have been given a shawl by one of the nuns to covery myself before they called my mom. LOL

I love all of them but my favorite is the very first blue one. I had the body for it back in the day...long and lean with beautiful legs and believe me, I threw it out there. I was a 1970s teen and young adult. My dad would say, you going out in public like that (ha ha ha) and my mom would say leave her be. Let her show it while she's got it because one day, she will have to tone it down. Thanks mom...you were so right, I have had to tone it down!

This one is my favorite. Love the color, the style, the fabric, the embellishment...everything.

Most, NOT all, of them are too revealing to be appropriate for a high school girl to wear.

@Love my grandkids No, they want to wear what they see celebrities wear. They are raised on this, spoon fed this by the entertainment industry, so why wouldn't that be appropriate now?

If they can listen to it and sing it and watch it, and dance it as cheerleaders, why not wear it?

@Desertdi I've seen tons of strapless gowns that are in good taste. I don't like to see **teenager** with lots of cleavage bared. No reason for that.

Strapless was not my point. I was talking about what's appropriate for a teenage girl.

All of the dresses posted here came from store sections touting their "Prom Selections."
