'Rock' Prom Dress

Roobetharack · 28/01/2026 21:05

DD is looking for her Year 13 prom dress and I was wondering if any wise MNers had any suggestions please?

She really loves rock music and is in a band. She's not a typically 'girly' girl (yes, I hate that phrase too).

She's not a a goth, but I can imagine her wearing black.

Does anyone know where she should look for such a dress please?

Thank you everyone.

What's the budget?

You could look at alternative wedding dress outlets?

What about a tux? I’ve seen a few girls wear them and look really cool.

Have a look on the Disturbia website. Not sure if they are dressy enough for prom but certainly more on the alternative side

This kind of thing

tux

Might not be dressy enough for prom but HellBunny could be worth a look

A short leather jacket over any of these would certainly up the 'rock' factor.

Phase 8 has some nice ones dotted about. Dd had an ombré one.

Sister Jane.

I don't know what age "year 13" is and I can't be bothered googling it. I assume 17/18. I can't imagine that age wanting to wear Phase 8 and JJ's House

I think anything with a corset would be quite 'rocky' and also dressy but it really depends on her style and level of confidence to be different.

Also Cider has some alt black prom dresses to.

Ooh, one of those tulle skirts with a short leather jacket and some big boots would look cool.
