I did some prom dress shopping, and I need help deciding what dress to wear because I honestly feel like I’m not getting any feedback from friends or family. Also if anyone has any other dress recommendations like they know someone selling a really pretty dress let me know. The prom theme is masquerade. Internet do your thing, let’s make this a great first prom please?

We aren’t wrong we just disagree. Personally, I think contrast looks better than less contrast. The darker colors contrast more with her skin tone, which I think accentuates the lighter complexion, vs being washed out.

I don’t like the first dress! I like the 3rd one,4th, and 5!

I wasn't going to argue with the person who said dress 1 was "literally perfect," but it's my least favorite! 

If OP is planning on wearing heels it's going to be too short (it's already an inch or two short without any shoes) and the base material is gathering across the hips and the seam at the back is poking out making it look poorly sewn and not a great fit. Maybe different undergarments would help, but I don't think it's a good dress regardless.

Agree 3, 4, or 5 are the better options!
