* Celebrity Sizzle: Teen girls taking their cue from Hollywood
"it-girls" like Jessica Simpson and Hilary Duff know that showing a little
skin is in. Short party dresses and high-low hems on sleek A-line gowns
show off shapely legs and allow fashion forward shoes like strappy sandals
and glam peep-toes to shine. Plunging necklines and low backs also allow
girls to feel glamorous on this special night. Guys exude the confidence of
Diddy and Justin Timberlake by sporting bright vests and ties in shades of
blue, green and yellow paired with a fashionable tux from Tommy Hilfiger or
Claiborne, exclusively for After Hours.
* Dress It Up With Details: This season dress details are mixed and
many, allowing teens to personalize their party style with sequins, lace,
beading and embroidery. For girls whose style tends to be on the sweet
side, pick-up ballgowns, touches of lace and simple beading create the
princess look. For girls looking for a more avant-garde party dress,
sequins, more extensive beading and embroidery can all be combined onto one
gown -- the more the better! Complete the look with an embellished handbag
and a rhinestone and crystal comb to truly sparkle. Tuxedo detailing, while
slightly more subtle, still plays an integral role in any young man's
style. The stylish silhouette of the Claiborne Luxury Collection Shadow
Stripe allows boys to add character in a subtle way, while longer length
coats and accessories like hats and chains provide an opportunity for a
more adventurous fashion statement.
* A Rainbow of Romantic Options: Whether looking for a style that is
classic or modern, sweet or glam this season's color palette is loaded with
options that allow couples to match, complement, and personalize their
look. Girls who want a sophisticated style can dress in rich colors pulled
straight from the runways, such as steel, wildfire and deep blue tones. For
sweeter styles, dresses in the bright and pastel color palettes remain
strong, featuring hues of lime, pink, yellow and turquoise. In addition,
the perennial favorites black and white are mainstays for girls looking to
achieve a timeless look. Guys can coordinate with their dates via a vast
selection of vest and tie color options from After Hours, making it easy to
find the ideal look for a perfect night. For finishing touches, girls can
dye a classic clutch or pair of flirty shoes in colors to match or
complement their dress.
* First-class Fabrics: Regardless of personality, every teen knows the
quality and fabric of the dress can impact the silhouette significantly.
This is why David's Bridal and After Hours Formalwear are proud to offer a
high level of craftsmanship making each piece truly exquisite. Dresses in
satin, charmeuse, jersey, mesh and novelty fabrics allow each girl's
individuality to be reflected in her gown. Tuxedos in Loro Piana fabric
give a soft touch and luxurious feel making it easy to dance the night
away.
* Quinceanera and Sweet-16 Stay Traditional: Whether it's a sassy
Quinceanera ballgown or a fun and flirty sweet-16 dress, every girl wants
the perfect look for her celebration! Quince gown details include beautiful
beaded lace bodices, and princess tulle skirts with lace appliques. A
palette of pastels -- whites, pinks and blues -- provide a youthful look,
allowing the birthday girl to express herself while remaining flirty and
fun. A variety of necklines such as halter, strapless and spaghetti strap
help her find a perfect fit. Of course, no Quince look is complete without
the classic elbow length gloves and shining tiara to make every girl feel
like a princess on her big day. Boys also understand their role in these
milestone occasions and want to look their best. Classic tuxedos are
available in black and white with vests and ties in a variety of pastel
hues such as pinks, blues and greens, meant to enhance the look at any
party.
