This is for all those wild and crazy chicks lookin' for a little "something extra" on their dress. For those who want to be unique and have a one-of-a-kind dress. Don't do this to yourselves.
Not only does this dress have a high-low hem and ruffles- it has a floral patterned skirt to match those disgusting ruffles all the way around. Kind of reminds me of the dress in "The Nutcracker" that all the little kids hide under! This is where ugly flowers hide.

Because the plain ol' cheetah print wasn't enough, someone decided to paint on their dress to "give it some color". Well, you succeeded, but the dress looks even worse than before!


This dress is for those "Carrie" wannabes who want to look like they stepped in a pool of blood. Who wouldn't want to look like the were covered in blood in those great prom pictures?!?!?

And I saved the best for last!
What the heck is that supposed to be?
 This is tie-dye gone wrong. Even the bright colors like blue and pink look depressed in this god-awful pattern and pleats. FYI- you look like a painter!

In the world of performance art, triple threats are those who can sing, dance, and act. They're a rare find, but well worth the price of admission to see a performance. In the world of prom dresses, triple threats are those dresses that are three times as ugly, with included pattern, poof, and too much bling. Though they are rare, they are not worth the money to buy this hot mess.
Example A:

Does anyone else find it weird that the boobs are sparkly, the hips have stripes, and the poof is plaid. I'm sure it does wonders for the figure.

Example B:

"Wow! Sparkly roses AND a waistband a mile wide. But wait, there's more! If you order within the next 10 minutes- 'cause we can't do this all day- we'll throw in a full, poofy skirt with gigundo roses and purple stripes for the low price of just $340. But wait! We'll even pay shipping and handling!"
(Gee, thanks. That's so generous of you!)

Example C:


"Holy Toledo, Pebbles! You and Bam-Bam are going to prom wearing matching suit and dress? That's so creative!"
"I know! He bought me this dress, and we're going to take Daddy's car for the night! Yabba-dabba-doooo!"

Excuse me, but could you add some layers?



When one just isn't enough, you can count on these dressmakers to add WAY too many layers to a perfectly acceptable dress. Take this one by Clarisse, for instance- a lovely blue color with a tiny pattern and a nice strapless top. And then they ruin it with some awful and unflattering ruffles in blue cheetah print.

Gee, thanks so much.
And this one, by Faviana, would have been unique and interesting, but they had to ruin it with this lovely black mesh curtain covering only the back-side of the dress. AND said mesh has an ugly lace pattern on it.


And, last but not least, an "abstract" striped pattern on the bodice and four (count 'em... FOUR) layers of tulle on the bottom. My legs are getting a rash just looking at that ugly piece of itchiness!

Every teenage girl dreams about her first car. A red, Mustang convertible with a big red bow on top. Yeah, right.  Well, for those of us who didn't get that convertible, here's a surprise for you- a brand new convertible.

Can you imagine?!?!
Girl: "Please excuse me while I take off my skirt."
Date: "Oh absolutely. Don't mind me!"

A Wonderful Way to Kick Off Prom Season...With Dresses Nobody Would Be Caught Dead Wearing




Well, it's official. Prom preparing has begun for the most desperate of teen girls. It's 2010, which means a whole new line of prom dresses. We'll start off with a few of my favorites...

Woman: Hi, I'm here to find a prom dress.
Saleslady: Sure, we have a great selection. What were you looking for?
Woman: Well, I was hoping to find a dress that made me look 8 months pregnant, 20 pounds overweight, and accentuates my hips with some pleating.
Saleslady: I think I have just the dress for you...
TA-DAH!!!!!
(made by David's Bridal)

Here's another lovely example of what rosettes and tulle can add to a great prom dress...

Absolutely nothing.

And finally, last but not least, the one, the only....
Racing-fan, sparkley fire, red puffy dress...with halter scoop neck, of course.
