5 Prom Dress Trends for 2021

Before you start prom dress shopping, take a look at these upcoming trends for 2021 to ensure that you can stay ahead of the fashion game when it comes to choosing your perfect prom dress. 

1) Red Carpet Glam

Taking inspiration from the big red carpet events of Hollywood and the silver screen, the red carpet look is all about being glam and showing off your figure. Slinky silhouettes, spaghetti straps and figure-hugging bodycon prom dresses are going to be big for 2021 so be sure to browse our collection of red carpet prom dresses to ensure the spotlight will be on you.

2) Metallic Prom Dresses

Why be plain when you can sparkle?! Metallic prom dresses have been around for a few seasons and aren't going anywhere for 2021. This ultra-modern and highly glamorous look is all about being sparkling bright and standing out from the crowd. Most popular shades are rose gold, silver and gun metal grey, but for the coming season you'll find sequins and metallics in all colours of the rainbow. 

With thigh split and side detail rouching, this absolutely breathtaking gown will ensure that you sparkle all night long like the starlet you are! 

3) The Ball Gown Prom Dress

This classic A-line silhouette is back in fashion for prom night 2021 and offers a beautifully glamorous option for those of you who would rather not wear a figure-hugging number. No longer is this style of prom dress deemed frumpy - in fact quite the opposite! The ball gown-style has been given a modern makeover for 2021 with sheer bodices, lace-up backs and more.

4) Jewelled Hues

Rich emeralds, bold rubies and striking sapphires are all making an appearance on the 2021 prom dress catwalks this year. Plain block colours in a rich jewel-like shade really make a statement and ooze a certain class. Opt to amplify the glam even further with metallic accessories and matching jewels. A chignon bun or loose wavy hairstyle is the perfect unfussy hairdo to complete your jewel-coloured prom dress for 2021.
