Suiting Up for Prom: Where to Find the Perfect Dress

Suiting Up for Prom: Where to Find the Perfect Dress

It’s that time of year once again. Spring is just around the corner, and with it comes a favorite Warren event: Prom!

The theme has been set, and tickets will be on sale soon. As the next few weeks progress, anticipation for the big night will kick in for those lucky upperclassmen! So, what are you wearing?

This year, I will be attending my third prom here at Warren, and ninth school dance  overall! Over the past four years, I’ve spent countless hours flipping through websites and searching the racks for the perfect dress for each event. Trying to find an affordable dress that sits comfortably and suits your personality can be quite the challenge. However, for Prom 2025, it doesn’t have to be.

I’ve taken the time to compile a list of websites and stores in our surrounding area that sell formal dresses with a wide variety of styles, colors, and prices. This list contains fourteen different recomendations for your dress shopping, and is sourced entirely by your peers! Happy shopping!

About the Contributor
Tatum Harris
Tatum Harris, Staff Writer
Hello! My name is Tatum Harris, and I am a senior here at Warren. This is my first year working on Scratch Paper. I have been dancing as a Devilette on the Warren dance team for the past four years, and enjoy contributing in our school spirit! Outside of school, I’ve been dancing competitively at a studio for several years. When I’m not at school or dance, I enjoy both reading and writing, as well as spending time with my friends and family.
