YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

Use Katy Perry, Rihanna, And More As Your Prom Dress Inspo

It's like having a stylist... for free

Prom season is upon us, which means one thing — it's time to use ya faves as inspiration. Since you may be busy doing other things — living life, learning how to do a milkmaid braid, etc. — we've rounded up a few dresses that would kill at any prom.

Here are our choices, inspired by the likes of Katy Perry, Rihanna, and more. Enjoy!

This dress from Reformation is the more wearable version of Katy's 2016 Golden Globes gown. Whether or not you follow Katy's Bump-It lead is up to you, but the matching lip color is a no-brainer.

If you're looking for something a little edgier than your standard prom dress, Kylie Jenner is the perfect muse. Tight + short + black + an uncommon neckline = the perfect combo. While Kylie opted for a low-key makeup look, a red lip would just be... perfection.

For old-school glam inspo, look no further than Zendaya. Slinky, silver, and sparkly is not only a beautiful alliteration — it's a great look for prom. Since your dress is high in glam, you have two options: low-key beauty for balance or, y'know, just go all out. You only go to prom once (or maybe twice, IDK how your school works).

Crop top + skirt combos are the prom dresses of the future (or at least the right now), and Jennifer Lawrence's Oscars after-party outfit is the perfect inspo. Black makes it classic, and showing a little midriff makes it modern. A smoky eye brings the look to the next level. Boom.

Of course, if you're looking for a ~classic~ prom look, pink and poofy is the way to go. Since your outfit will be doing all the talking — and a lot of it 🙌 — you can keep your beauty game simple.
