Ashley Mott
Variations of the metallic color silver were all over the 2010 Academy Awards or Oscars red carpet. For all of the young women who remain undecided about a prom dress or look thus far, a silver dress would be very much on trend and bring a bit of Hollywood glam to your prom.

A Short Silver Prom Dress from JCPenney for $69.99

The Speechless brand Tulle Glitter Overlay Dress is a bargain at $69.99. It is the perfect dress for the young lady who wants range of motion in a prom dress and the ability to dance and have fun without worrying about a floor-length skirt or a tight leg getting in the way. It features a quaint sweetheart neckline and the tulle gives it an added innocent feeling!

The Grecian Inspired Silver Prom Dress from JCPenney for $66.99

$67.00 is a real bargain for a floor-length prom dress in today's market. At any bridal shop or occasion dress store a floor-length gown is going to be in the triple digits without fail. This My Michelle Silver Chain Necklace Halter Dress offers a lot for the price tag. The bodice is sweetheart neckline with a detailed necklace also extending up as a halter strap. The dress features Grecian detailing and pleats with a smooth silhouette from top to bottom. A fun surprise is a small triangle above the feet in the back which features additional pleating for an oh-so-slight train.

The Elegant Silver Prom Dress by LaFemme

LaFemme has a stunning and glamorous prom dress available on FrenchNovelty.com. For the daring dancer it features an extra bit of a V plunging down the center of the torso. The bodice features lovely detailing and the skirt has a highly graceful sweep to it. At $298, this dress offers the look the price suggests.

The All Encompassing Silver Prom Dress by Faviana

This dress is also from French Novelty and features a little bit of everything which is reflected in the somewhat hefty price tag of $450. The bodice has a very delicate appearance and is cinched with a highly detailed waist band which leads to a full skirt with two panels that feather gracefully to either side and would create quite the effect while dancing. The web-site notes that this dress includes a scarf.

The Slinky Silver Prom Dress

Unique Vintage features a very lovely prom dress referred to as slinky due to its body hugging nature (i.e. Lauren Bacall). This dress has lots of detailing and, while several shades darker, does call to mind the masterpiece Sandra Bullock wore to the 2010 Academy Awards. At $198, this dress is a nice mid-range price.

Bring some Oscar fashion to the prom this year by wearing a silver prom dress that calls to mind the silver styles worn on the Academy Award's red carpet in 2010.
