Should a prom dress be floor length?

A floor-length prom dress is definitely an option but midi and short cocktail dresses are acceptable today. When deciding what length prom dress to wear try a number of styles on that are different lengths to see which is the most flattering style for you. Never wear anything trendy if it does not look good on you. Dresses that are too low cut, tight, or too short can make you look cheap. Something more modest is in good taste and more appropriate for the teenage years.
