It's safe to say that everyone wants to have their big fashion moment on prom night, whether that's a unique floral suit or a romantic, straight-outta-#BookTok ballgown. After all, when else do you get to pick out a super extra look and get glammed up for an entire night?
If you're set on finding a unique prom dress that is guaranteed to stand out, you may need to block out a little extra time for your search. Begin by creating a mood board or list of styles that you like from inspiring celebs, your fave influencers, TV shows, TikTok, IG, and Pinterest. This will help guide your search. As you shop, keep an eye out for special details that will make your look stand out in the sea of dresses and suits, like an asymmetrical hemline, a unique color combo, or a vintage-inspired silhouette. Trust your instincts — you'll know when you find that diamond-in-the-rough dress that feels unique and totally you.
To help you along your prom dress journey, we've rounded up some of our favorite unique prom dresses like sequins standouts, bold metallics, and even a little bit of leopard print. On this list, you'll find unique prom gowns for every aesthetic from goth-grunge to Euphoria-inspired '80s vibes — available at classic prom dress shops and lesser-known retailers alike. These unique prom dresses will fully own Prom 2024.
