Prom Outfits

[George A.]

The other day I was shopping for my tuxedo for my Senior Prom, when a thought occured to me. Why be plain and go with an ordinary black tux, when I could be out there and stand out. I was thinking either a green tux (think MOE) or a bright blue tux..Whaddya think? I'd also like to hear what you'll be wearing to your prom, and if you and your date are coordinating your clothes

You might want to talk to your date before doing that.

I second that !! If she's all for it, i suggest the MOE green.

Someone at my prom wore a peach tux to match his date and my friend's bf wore a white tux. I think while the peach was outrageous, the while stood out and still looked classy. Do you still have time to make a duck tape tux? You could stand out and make money! No matter what though, check with your date. good luck, and have fun!

I would go with MOE green as long as your date is in hot pink. Then it will be like Heather flags (team 696 2003 robot had bright pink and green flags).

I had this great silver tux and it worked out great since no one else was wearing one. The best part was that i have a black and white picture where i'm standing in the middle of all my freinds wearing black tux's making me stand out and look awsome. I had fun.

No, no. That ruins all the fun

What'd I wear to prom? (points upward)

As for the tux, go nuts. Just make sure you have a date for the evening that will remain your date for the evening.

This is what I wore to prom

My boyfriend, Joe, wore a very nice, classy black tux with a black and silver vest and matching bow tie.

The coolest dress at my prom was ChellyZee's light up dress. Yay for fiber optics!

Lol... one of my friends on the team wore one of these for his team picture at the beginning of the year, and it looks like he's wearing an actual tux. He also wore it for his school picture and the photographer thought he was wearing an actual tux

To complete the outfit.. matching duct tape boutteniere and corsage! They match with everything AND are easy to make (.. well, moderately easy to make..). =) C'mon, who'd turn that down..

I'll vote for the Miami Vice inspired Bright Blue tux. Hey, it worked for me. That's what I wore to my prom. A bright royal blue tux jacket, white dress shirt, and a matching royal blue cumberbund*, and a blue bowtie. And I think my pants were black.
Oh, and it went great with my royal blue Mountain Gear shoe/boots (which I also wore to graduation with my red cap and gown.. lol
Those shoe/boots were a pain to dance in though, so you want to be careful what you wear on your feet if you plan on dancing, and if you don't dance at your prom, then you are missing all the fun IMHO.

As for my date coordinating her clothes.. I'd have to say that wasn't a problem. My date wore a handmade dress by her mom (who was a dressmaker) so it worked out fine. I believe it was mostly black with a rose print of some kind??

I'll have to dig out my pictures.. Senior Prom was fun!

If you're going to be wearing something outragous (a moe green tux) you do need to talk to your date. I would seriously hurt my date if he had shown up in lime green (though thinking about it...It would have been cool.) Nevertheless...I think what you wear depends on your personality. If you're known for doing wacky things that it wont matter but if you're like...the shy reserved type...it'll be a big deal. One of the guys from my school wore a powder blue suit with a very bright canary yellow dress shirt and a pair of light brown oakleys. He looked like one of the mafia guys from Scarface (I think my date said Mr. Black...I forget). It looked cool...minus the canary yellow...though. Oh yeah...white patan leather shoes too.
