"In a sea of small-town prom dresses, this sequin-covered dress definitely stood out. This was actually meant to be a wedding dress, so we had to cut the train off. I left a trail of sequins all over the dance floor!" —karlyc
"Found this dress at a consignment shop for really cheap compared to typical prom dresses. It was made it the 1940’s and was barely worn. I really found the best dress, just needed to be altered a little." —izzymaem
"I've always hated dresses and never felt comfortable wearing them, so when prom came, I knew I wanted to wear a suit. Since I'm from a very small town, it proved to be difficult to actually find a woman's suit, let alone one that fit my style. I wanted to be comfortable, but I didn't want to give up looking feminine. I ended up finding the perfect suit online a week before my actual prom and got it delivered just two days before! I'm so glad I didn't give up and go with a dress because this suit was perfect for me!" —bradleybreonna92
"My mom and I made my dress ourselves because I couldn’t find one that I thought suited me. Really proud of how it came out!" —tarav4642f3eb3
"I definitely thought I was 'not like other girls.' In high school, I worked at the local Renaissance Festival, which is where I got the hat and corset." —lizowar
"I’m wearing a Priyanka Chopra Anarkali Indian dress to prom this year that I altered to add sleeves to accommodate my 'Muslim-ness'. It’s an old Eid dress, but it’s honestly more gorgeous that many dresses I see in American stores for a much higher price." —fisahinabox
"I made my prom dresses both junior and senior year, but the one I wore senior year I'm most proud of. It was made with soda can tabs and ribbon. One of the teachers didn't want to let me into prom because my dress wasn't traditional, but the other teachers thought it was so awesome!" —crgadley
