5 Iconic Celebrity Prom Dresses to Inspire Your 2021 Prom Dresses

Prom has always been a special moment in every woman’s life (aside from work events celebrating your successor weddings). Prom dresses are quintessential dresses designed for any woman who wants to live a red carpet moment or experience a modern-day fairytale. With extravagant skirts attached with a full corset-Esque bodice, chic satin long dresses, the prom dresses remain the favorite among college students and high schoolers.

With top celebrity attendees reigning the red carpet with exquisite ensembles, we have no doubt the A-listers will put the world at a halt, especially after a year of pandemic Zooms and fancy sweatpants. However, these “straight-out-of-the-runway” and haute couture pieces can cost you a bank. If you’re a savvy shopper or someone who doesn’t like to spend additional dimes shopping, then the breathtakingly gorgeous prom dresses are made just for you. AM-PM friendly, adorn these radiant ensembles in myriad settings. But, before they advanced to red carpets, glam squads, and pop culture, various celebrities and A-listers experienced similar quintessential high school prom moments, much like the rest of them.

So, let’s take a look at some TBT prom moments of celebrities and more.

Elle Fanning

Arguably one of the best dressed Hollywood celebrities, Elle Fanning opted for a vintage bias-cut pink John Galliano dress from the Los Angeles-based retail store of Paper Bag Princess. Additionally, the actress opted for a flower embellished muslin midi tips for prom dress. The off-shoulder cut integrated with a stone-encrusted necklace accentuated her neckline. The young actress completed her seraphic prom look with minimal accessories and natural makeup and elevated the prom dresses to another level. You can achieve this ensemble from any store offering chic and sexy prom dresses.

Natalie Portman

Before bagging prestigious awards for acting, Academy award winner Natalie Portman stole our hearts with her sequined ice blue dress. The sparkly blue pastel dress and glittery makeup situation make us reminisce about early 00s memories. She completed her Prom Gown with a chiffon scarf and silver sequin clutch integrated with minimalist earrings and white flower corsage. You can acquire a similar and relatively cheap ensemble from a nearby retail store. With Hollywood glitz and glamour, the mini prom dresses are becoming increasingly voguish among fashionistas. 

Meryl Streep

Nobody does it better than three-time Academy Award-winning actress Meryl Streep. Often revered as one of the best-dressed actors in Hollywood, Meryl didn’t hold back the glamour to her High school Prom too. Instead, Meryl opted for the classic 70s ethos of Short prom dresses with long sleeves. The embroidered neck and an early classic prom crown completed her minimalist, exquisite ensemble.

Britney Spears

Popstar Britney Spears opted for an exquisite and heavily embellished halter neckline with a high-low prom dress for her senior year prom. The Figure huffing fabric accentuated her midriff and torso, and the V neck cut of the ensemble flattered her neckline. With classic 00s fringes, she ties her blonde curls into a loose-high bun for a seraphic and clean look.

Taylor Swift

Years before her glamorous red carpet reign began, the Grammy acclaimed singer and songwriter Taylor Swift opted for a simple white off-shoulder cut mermaid style essence of long prom dresses for the prom. With her signature “Fearless” blonde curls tied in a bun, Swift integrated her minimalist look with natural dewy makeup and beaded dangling earrings. Flaunting the neck, she wore her signature infectious smile.

Before becoming nominees and presenters, these A-listers step out donning luxurious and over-the-top outfits looking for millions of bucks. So if you’re a Hollywood enthusiast and planning an OTT dress for the event debutante, then these dresses are worth looking out for!
