Stars In Prom-Inspired Dresses — Prom season is officially here and if you’re looking for the perfect dress for your big day, look no further, because some of our fave stars have rocked red carpet dresses that will give you major inspiration. From off-the-shoulder gowns, to poofy short dresses, beaded embellishments, and even feathers — we rounded up some of the hottest trends that we’ve been seeing the stars wear on the red carpet, to give you some inspo for your prom night look. Some of our fave prom-inspired looks that landed a spot in this gallery, include Taylor Swift’s stunning pastel pink and yellow J. Mendel Spring 2019 gown to the Time 100 Gala in New York City on April 23, which featured off-the-shoulder sleeves and a yellow floral embroidered bodice. Another one of our fave looks was Brie Larson’s ’80s prom queen dress that she wore to the South Korea premiere of ‘Avengers: Endgame’ on April 15. The royal blue Rodarte Fall 2019 gown featured intricate embellishments of beads, sequins, and gems that covered the frock, while massive pink taffeta ruffles trimmed the entire asymmetrical hemline of the dress. There are a bunch of different celebrity red carpet looks that will inspire you for prom, which you can see when you click through the gallery above, but there are also a slew of new spring trends that the celeb set cannot stop wearing. Barbie pink has been spotted a ton lately, and so have neon and pastel hues.
