Most girls dream of the dress they'll wear on this special night, and up until their wedding day, they don't have any other moment that comes close in importance.

It's one of the most important nights of your high school career - and let's face it, most fashionistas take it quite seriously. We'll highlight some of this year's best options for fashion forward prom dresses that let you dance the night away.

Short Strapless Dress with Organza Ruffle Skirt
Another short and sweet mini-dress option for you: the organza skirted number. This flirty piece is decidedly fashion forward - it's just as suited for a red carpet premiere as for the prom. In a gorgeous coral hue with a ruffled sweetheart bodice that slims and shapes, this dress is short enough to let you dance the night away without having to worry about someone stepping on your train and ruining all of your fun.

Strapless Tulle Ball gown with Beaded Corded Lace
Above, we talked about weddings - but we didn't mention that one of the greatest things about your wedding day is that you can dress like a princess. Newsflash, ladies - you can dress like a princess on prom night as well! Live your fairy tale dreams in a Cinderella-inspired ball gown with a full skirt. Modern touches bring this dress firmly into the present, but you might as well be skipping off to meet Prince Charming, thanks to a strapless style with ivory-corded lace overlay and a figure flattering tulle skirt.

Floral One Shoulder Lace Prom Gown

If you're looking to go old school Hollywood siren for prom this year, consider a red hot one shouldered bodice gown with delicate floral detailing on the shoulder. With a floor-length skirt made of a silky knit fabric, this gown grazes and highlights your curves without going overboard, thanks to flattering pleated lines that slim and lengthen. With an empire waist, this dress looks good on just about anyone.

Whether you choose to go long or short, modern or classic, you're sure to find a prom gown that works for you. No matter what you choose, remember that every dress looks best with a bright smile and a big dash of confidence.
