Prom Runway Trend: Candy-Colored Minidresses

Pert, leggy dresses with scalloping, lace, polka dots and floral patterns traipsed down the runways, setting the scene for a very flirtatious spring. Designers including Adam, Jill Stuart and Victoria by Victoria Beckham showed drop-waist dresses in shades of pink, periwinkle and red, and splashy florals and oversized scalloping added the perfect doll-like finish at Christopher Kane and Victoria by Victoria Beckham. Cheeky Mary Jane pumps at Erin Fetherston and Carven added the perfect doll-like finish to these peppy, pop tart dresses.

Dressing up is the perfect trend to embrace for spring, whether you're at school, work, or play—just moderate your hemline accordingly. Throw on a candy-colored mini dress to brighten up a rainy spring day, or try the trend with scalloping and lace details. Accessorize with a collar in an accenting color (like those shown at Carven) or let a peppy print make a statement, and add a pair of patent leather Mary Janes for extra polish.
