Looks kinda ugly IMO but it's not jeans and a t-shirt so it'll fly.

Wouldn't that just be black stockings?

Well you could wear black ones with crosses on them to match the dress, but if I was wearing that then I'd go all black.

Yes, and they'd go nicely with a pair of clear heels. I have pix in mind.

Clear heels = Stripper shoe.

Chris Rock is right, avoid clear heels like the plague.

any kind of black opaque heeled shoes/ boots would go well though.

That's nice, lets just hope you look good in it, misses. We expect pics.

Clear heels are'nt that bad, as long as it's not 6 inch heels :p

I'm guessing everyone here is male. Heals are painful and should not be worn.

Rabb I'm surprised you didn't make this connection...

i am VERY ashamed of myself for not posting that myself given i was on SC4 about 10 mins before reading the 1st post.

eww.

not for me.

What's with the starwars names?

you mean yoda, and starwarsnerd?

well i dont even like starwars,
but i had the nick from a few years ago.

The nick name is old. look at my reg date.
but that's besides the point, Star Wars rules.

I'm male and have walked in heels enough to know that the pain is worth it.

I did...Hence making sure the OP wears it :D

There's also starwarsfan.

And Rabb, 8 hours in heals while intoxicated, I can barely stay upright sober in flats.

Are you serious? It's your formal, not Halloween.

8 hours whilst pissed in heels...It's a challenge I'd take :P

Ignore this ^^

EGL FTW.

Get a nice pair of lacy tights. They might cost you some serious cash but they'll be worth it.

And only $160? Odds are the dress will be of really shitty quality. I'm willing to bet it'll be mostly spandex.

If you are going to go in that direction do it right. Don't get it off the internet, get it from somewhere you can try it on and feel it before buying it.

Lace tights...Never thought of that, good call :)

I am going to the shop to buy it. They just post after they do alterations. Also, already got lace tights for school occasionally. Surprisingly cheap.

Try it out this weekend.

Hell yeah that one's mad... wait, you're not fat are you?

Zing! Money shot.

Sexy, i say go for it.

Every year people push the limits with shit and it usually ends with you getting let in. its you last year of school and nobody really wants to ruin one of the few good social things about it.

i can guarantee you won't look good in this.


probably cuz you're not hot. but we still have all of totse whacking over it.

I've never understood the whole goth loli thing, but I can't see any problems occurring.

It looks perfectly fine.

For the 1860s.

Dresses are one place where looking like everyone else is good. All the girls wear pretty things, why would you wear something that odd just to stick out?

I'm sure you can pull of a sexy dress and just be remembered as the hottest girl there, rather than the one who came to prom dressed in that and combat boots?

I went to the junior formal in combat boots and everyone seemed to think it was a good idea. I was the only one wearing shoes by the end of the night. Also, I'm not doing long sleeves as it's ridiculously hot here and I set them alight last time and floor length skirts are just messy. Add in I'm a ginger and black seems to be the best bet which leads to goth.

not enough pix.

Someone has a fetish for tights...

Absolutely hideous.

There is no way you can pull off that dress without heels. There isn't a single pair of flats that goes with a dress like that and it would just look stupid as hell.

This...Don't go with combat boots, it would look so bad.

this.

that dress looks really poxy and the real thing will probably be worse.
and with the amount of plastic that thing looks like it has in it, you will be sweating like a pedophile in a preschool.

I had mine a few weeks ago, some girl wore the same kinda thing. It didn't look too bad, if you like it, wear it. Doesn't matter what other people think imo.

I'm pretty sure you'll be ALLOWED, and probably only a handful of girls will dress in that style (or at least thats how it was in my last high school formal.

I wholly support you wanting to go for something different at your formal, but maybe you could translate to the "different" into something a little more classy/flattering?

I don't know, do what you like though.

Who cares. The really important thing is how quickly she can get it off.
