I have found that most prom dresses look like the one Katie Price wore when she married Peter Andre - tacky looking in other words.
I love victorian and late 18th century dresses because of all the detailing and work that has clearly gone into making all the intricate stitches, embroidery; the material used - artistically arranged.
Any way, I was wondering if there are any prom dresses available with this much detail and intricate design reminiscent of victorian dresses in the UK.
It can look a little more modern but i still want that victorian silhouette to be there and a full lenght skirt possibly with the ruffled up skirt at the back like the dresses of the 1880s. i don't want the dress to be exactly like a late victorian one, I would look very strange indeed at my prom if I did, but I want to have Aspects that are obviously victorian.
As for the price, if possible, nothing over £200 pounds or I can be a hire dress.
I do't really want a gothic look either.
You can find bustle skirts (long) on goth and alternative sites and in the shops, tops likewise. Have a look at www.fairygothmother.co.uk - quite pricey but you will get an idea of what styles you should be able to find. You'd probably need to buy seperates to get the look you are after.
