Homecoming dress trends for 2013

Homecoming dresses for 2013 are sure to be the most glamorous, sensational styles to date. With bold new trends and echoes from past seasons, the gowns this year are off-the-runway fabulous. Here are some of the exciting new details and fashions for homecoming 2013.

Lace

Gaining popularity in the 2013 prom season, short, sassy, lace homecoming dresses have brought new life to an old favorite. Lace over and underlays, high lace necklines, and even lace accessories are going to be big this year. But this isn’t your grandmother’s lace, these details are the foundation for sparkling stones and glimmering sequins. Vintage flair with a modern twist. Fall in love with lace…we have!

Sleek and sexy

Everyone looks cute in a short, poufy dress, but what about the girl with a more refined taste? Homecoming dresses this year are moving away from the cupcake look to the more form-fitting, cocktail style. Beaded sheath, comfortable and dance-worthy jersey, and slim-fitting sequin dresses that glitter from top to bottom have become a fixture in the 2013 homecoming market.

Jersey

Finally, the most comfortable fabric on planet earth makes its special occasion debut as a rising trend among young homecoming shoppers. Look for short, jersey dresses with cut outs, sequin accents, and beaded detail to be popular this season and next. Hot new colors like navy and plum make this fabric pop while sparkling elements take center stage atop a beautifully simplistic canvas. You’ll be pulling out your jersey dress to wear again and again for many special events to come.

Interesting back designs

What has two, boring straps and no personality? The majority of homecoming dresses made before this season. Throw your hair into an updo and show off that back pattern! With sheer elements, criss-crossing straps, and beautiful beading that extends from front to back, they’ll hate to see you go but love to watch you leave. Easily overlooked gowns are kicked up a notch with the addition of an interesting back design, and manufacturers are taking notice. Look stunning from every angle with a homecoming dress that has pizzazz in the back.
