Every girl wants Prom Night to be special and wearing something that's unique and beautiful will make any girl feel confident on the night. A designer prom dress is most girls' dream but a local boutique may not stock the designer you want. Going online is a great way to shop and find exactly what you're looking for. Here are a few pointers to help you find that perfect dress.

Firstly, it really helps if you already know what style of designer prom dress you want. Each fashion house is different and each makes unique dresses, usually of one or two styles. So, in order to save time and indecision, make up your mind beforehand about style and budget.

For instance, certain fashion houses like Tiffany and Joli specialize in classic prom dress styles; sweetheart necklines, halter necks and tulle or pick up, full length skirts. If this is your preferred style then look at these - or other designers like them - don't spend any effort on looking at other fashion houses, like Xcite, that make more modern styles.

If you're undecided, then you could spend a lot of time looking at a lot of different designers. This really is a recipe for disaster; the more you look the more confused, tired and plain fed-up you'll become. You can help things a bit by looking at just one or two fashion houses that offer a broad selection of styles. Designer prom dress fashion houses like Mori Lee and Jessica McClintock offer a comprehensive selection to choose from. This should make things a little easier.

When you buy a designer prom dress online you must first make sure that the retailer is an authorized agent of the fashion house. You'll have very little come back from an unauthorized retailer should the dress arrive late or in imperfect condition. It's quite easy to check if the retailer is bona fide as many fashion houses websites provide a list of authorized dealerships. Some genuine online retailers may not be on the list, but these retailers would be able to provide proof of authorization when requested.

The best thing about the internet is being able to shop around without leaving home. So, go to many websites and compare prices. You may even be able to contact the retailers and get even further price reductions if you play one off against the other.

Making sure that clothes ordered online fit correctly is always a problem. However, to make things a little easier, many online designer prom dress retailers provide measuring guides on their websites. These, when used correctly, will make sure the dress will fit perfectly.

Even if the dress fits you, chances are in may need letting out or taking in here or there, so make sure you order your dress in plenty of time. Alteration shops can get very busy around prom time.

Shopping online can make shopping less tiring and fun. The secret is to know exactly what you want beforehand; there's just too much information overload on the internet. And, like buying from any store, you should make sure that they provide good customer service. Buying a designer prom dress online is becoming increasingly popular and most reputable stores now have their own online store. So, what are you waiting for? Get online and find that perfect gown.
