How to Choose the Best Prom Shoes

Now that you’re ready to shop for prom shoes to match your dress, you want to make sure that the ones you choose are the best prom shoes for you! With so many special-occasion dress shoes to explore, you’ll want to keep in mind the following tips for finding the perfect prom shoes for you and your gown:

  • Keep Comfort in Mind. You might be tempted to go straight for those gorgeous designer high-heel shoes because prom is the perfect excuse to get fancy, sexy shoes, right? Well, you might want to reign yourself in a bit, especially if you’re not already used to wearing high heels! Think about how you plan to enjoy prom. Will you be walking around a lot or dancing as much as you can with friends or your date? If you know you’ll be on your feet a lot, choose prom shoes with a heel height you can manage. You might also want to think about the straps. Super strappy dress shoes or prom sandals in a flip-flop style with straps between the toes can mean uncomfortable friction against your skin. Ultimately, you want to choose designer prom shoes that you can be comfortable and confident in through all of your prom night festivities.

  • Try Dress Shoes on with Your Gown. Just because it looks like the colors might match on screen doesn’t mean that your prom shoes and dress will match as nicely in the spotlight. Be sure to take some time to try on your dress shoes with your gown as soon as you can. You’ll want to see how the colors complement each other. Then try moving around. Make sure that the prom shoes don’t snag on your dress fabric. If you like the dress shoes and gown together, and you can comfortably move in them (like the first tip suggests), then you’ve got a keeper!

  • Think Outside of the Shoebox. There’s no rule that says you need to wear traditional dress shoes! If you’re hoping for a little more pop and pizzazz with your prom shoes, then it’s time to think outside of the box and go for less common styles. Prom sneakers, dress sandals, or slippers are stylish alternatives to classic prom footwear, so consider how you might be able to work one of those styles into your prom night ensemble for an unconventional look.

  • Consider Reusable Styles. Hoping to get more use out of your designer prom shoes than just one night? Many special-occasion dress shoes can be worn more than once, as long as they aren’t specifically styled for one outfit. The key is to go for neutral colors that match a variety of dress colors. Prom shoes in black, white, gold, or silver can often be matched up with lots of dress colors. You’ll also want to go for timeless dress shoe designs that are appropriate for more than one special occasion. Simple closed-toe or open-toe dress shoes or prom sandals can often be reworn for other events, while sky-high heels, super strappy wedges, or heavily bedazzled dress shoes might be too fancy or dramatic for more reserved occasions, like weddings.

Ready to choose the best prom shoes? Whatever your special occasion, shop PromGirl’s collection of designer dress shoes to find the perfect match for your dress and your personal style.
