Will you keep it forever? If it was expensive would you consider selling it when you're desperate for cash? Do you have pictures to share? There have been a couple times when I've been penniless that my thoughts have flicked to mine sat in the wardrobe. My prom was 7 years ago now but I don't think I'll get rid of it. It is a Gina Bacconi that I found on the off chance, as soon as I saw it I knew it was mine :h:

I actually don't know what I'll do with it, I haven't thought about it! I'll probably keep it though. At the end of the day, it was a really cute dress. I hope I have the opportunity to wear it again someday, but it is really quite formal...

Awww, thank you!

Yours is beautiful and I definitely wouldn't sell it :wink:
I was a bit of an goth in high school :tongue: I've still got it, haven't worn it since. It was only about £40 which was way cheaper than some of the girl in my school who were going in £300 + dresses :O I'd consider selling it if I reallllly needed some quick cash.

Thanks! :smile:
And I know, even if I could afford it easily I still don't think I'd be able to justify it. I'd rather get a laptop or something :tongue:
My year 11 prom was last year. It was this Karen Millen dress. It really stood out because everyone else wore a single colour :cool: Definitely keeping it - never gonna sell it!! Never!!

Thank you!! I got it on sale for £90 and before it was £180 or £215 - can't remember.

This was mine from my Year 11 prom in May, proper princess dress :') Don't think I'd ever sell it. It's too pretty to look at!:tongue:
My mum made my prom dress, so I don't think I will sell it, just maybe alter it to be a bit more wearable :biggrin: Btw it is a Audrey Hepburn style dress in dark green :P

I love mine so so so much :love:.

Unfortunately I'm slouching in the pic, but I couldn't find another one that shows the entire dress.
