5 Trends of Spring Formal Dresses

 Romper | Pastel | Geometric | Floral | Skater

Formal season is just around the corner, which means it’s time for dress shopping! Whether it’s your own sorority formal, or if your favorite Fraternity is off to Vegas, here are some of my favorite styles and where you can find them!

1.     Geometric lines and cutouts

Geometric lines and patternts, cutouts and slits, and deep v-necks are by far the biggest trend this season! These styles offer strategically placed designs to create the illusion of a slimmer figure. 

2.     Rompers

Rompers are the one clothing item I will forever swear by. They are comfortable, flattering, and you are able to dress them up or down. A basic romper with a cinched high-waist is my go-to! 

3.     The Two-Piece

Making their way to center stage this fashion season, are two-piece ensembles! A very Miley-esque sort of look, these are great for looking cute, while still having a good time. 

4.     Florals and Pastels

Typical of spring, florals and pastels are making their comeback. Nothing quite matches up to the girly feeling of twirling around in a pretty floral dress. 

5.     The Skater

As a huge fan of skater skirts, I can’t help but love the skater dress! The sinched waist and flowy bottom offer a flattering and flirty look!

With spring formal coming right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about the perfect dress. Whether you attend your sorority formal, get invited to a fraternity's formal, or are fortunate enough to go to both, dress shopping can become expensive and difficult to fit in your college budget. 

Here are a 3 easy ways to save money and have fun with your sisters while finding the perfect formal dress.

1. Ask around and borrow a sister’s dress: 
Many of your sisters have extra dresses they've previously worn that are just lying around. We girls love being complimented on our style, and wearing someone's dress would be the ultimate compliment.  Dress sized all run differently, so you never know who might be your size and your style, which makes branching out a great idea for more options! 

2. BYOD (bring your own dress) Party: Host a dress exchange! Invite your pledge class or your entire sorority to get together and bring cute dresses they've worn to formals or events. Girls can trade dresses, sell for a good price, or loan to one another. This is a fun way to get your sisters together for a night of bonding while also finding the perfect dress! 

3. Rent the Runway: My newest obsession is Rent the Runway. They have everything, from dresses to clutches, I have had so much fun renting all sorts of things from their website. Their website is easy to navigate and has hundreds of styles to choose from. Whether you are looking for long and elegant, short and fun, or chic and sophisticated, Rent the Runway always has you covered.
