Prom Dress of the Week - Forever Yours "A Young Girls' Dream"

This week's prom gown is a grad's dream dress!


This gown by Forever Yours Beaded has everything you could want in a fantasy prom gown.

The deep sweetheart neckline is enhanced with gathers and beaded lace from top to hip.

The a-line skirt is full of pick-ups, all the way down to the ground.

The lace up back has a modesty panel that can be removed if desired.

This fabric is irridescent tafetta which catches the light as you move, creating many shades from light to dark.

This gown looks amazing in darker colours like purple, dark red, or dark blue, but is available in your choice of 39 colours! The hardest part is choosing the colour you love the most.

Paper Doll Formals has this lovely gown for you to try on, and you won't be shocked at the price, either! Come in soon to order your gown, because we guarantee this dress won't be sold to the same grad class more than once, not even in a different colour. If you want it, order it sooner rather than later to make sure you're the one wearing it!

As always, you get Prom Perks too - 10% off your date's tux, valuable money-saving coupons for hair and spa (and more!), and the opportunity to get this gown for FREE when you refer 10 of your friends. When number 10 buys her gown from us, we reimburse you the cost of your gown (minus taxes)! You could have this money back in time for grad night if you buy now!

Dress of the Week - Modeca's Mildred

This gown doesn't look like much... until you see it up close!

Modeca, a division of Enzoani, has named their 2011 collection with "M" names. Mildred is an incredible gown and you can see a better photo of it here.

The sweetheart neck is gathered and ruched along the waist and part of the hip, where it's gathered with a lovely embroidered applique. This applique is also gathering the bodice along the opposite side, and on the back too.

The tight ruching and gathers is very figure-flattering, giving you a delightful figure.

The a-line skirt then drapes down in lovely pleats, belling out near the hem, creating an elegant chapel-length train.

The back is also gathered and ruched, and the zipper back is covered by buttons.

The fabric is a lovely silky taffeta which catches the light as you move.

The gown is available in white and pale ivory, in sizes 2-20. Paper Doll Formals carries Modeca as well as a selection of bridesmaid/prom dresses from Love.

Come in soon to see Mildred and her friends Mara, Mary and Madeline.

Dress of the Week - 2Be "Feathers & Flowers"

This week's dress is a true delight.

From Kathy Ireland's 2Be Bridal collection, this darling gown has it all!






The straight neckline (with removable straps) is directionally pleated from bust down the bodice, ending in an angle on the hip. There's a delicate floral and flower accent at this point and the dress hugs your torso to give it a perfect shape.

The inside has a elastic and hook to hold it to your waist, along with an internal corset that hooks from top to bottom. This saves you money on a separate corset, and gives you an amazing shape once the gown is zipped up.

The ball gown skirt drapes softly to the ground, with three more floral and feathered accents, picking up the skirt, catching the light as you move. There's one accent on the back train, and when bustled, this becomes a focal point of the rear of the gown.

With the addition of another crinoline under the skirt, it becomes a larger, flowing ball gown, fit for a princess.

Available in a silk shantung (shown), in white, or natural ivory, this gown is also available in a crinkle taffeta in white, ivory or spun gold.

In either fabric, the chapel-length train is perfect for indoor or outdoor weddings as it's not too long and bustles easily.

Available in sizes 2-20, this gown is in store at Paper Doll Formals, the only place on Vancouver Island you can see and try on this lovely gown.

The price point for the silk shantung gown (in store) is surprisingly affordable, making the taffeta choice an easy one for the budget-conscious bride.

Come in soon to see this beautiful gown and try it on as your 'ball gown silhouette' when trying on wedding gowns during your search.

Prom Dress of the Week: Tony Bowls Evenings "Raspberry Lemonade"

This is one of the amazing Tony Bowls Evening dresses in store - and she has captured our hearts.

Nicknamed "Raspberry Lemonade" from the vibrant colour in the gown, this dress is all class from head to toe.

The one-shoulder top is secured with a brilliant beaded accent which is copied again on the rushed waist.

The top provides great support and coverage and the rushing underneath provides the wearer with a sweet, small waist.

The silky chiffon drapes down and away from the legs with a slight train following behind.

The back is an original too - two delicate straps go across the back with a draping shawl falling down the back.

This dress comes with a matching shawl which can be worn with the gown, or created into a matching tie and pocket square for your date.

Available in yellow/multi, light yellow, fuchsia, and royal blue, this gown is sure to amaze and delight everyone.

As usual, Paper Doll Formals will not sell this gown (not even in a different colour!) to anyone else in the same graduating class once it's sold, and it can be ordered in sizes 0-16. Ordering time is a minimum of three months to guarantee timely delivery.

The price is quite affordable, and Paper Doll Formals encourages payments on account, so you can make the payments more bearable.

Come in soon to make sure you're the first and ONLY one wearing this dress to your prom!

Dress of the Week - Beautifully Modest "Lacy Pickups"

This week's dress is full of surprises.



From the top to the bottom, inside and out, this dress keeps finding ways to surprise and delight all who see it.

The pleated satin Queen Anne neckline has small cap sleeves on the shoulder.

The bodice, waist and top of the hips are covered in delicate lace which matches the cute removable bolero jacket.

The drop-waist ball gown skirt is a lovely bustled satin ending in a bubble hem.

The chapel-length train has slight bustles throughout which catch the light and ad elegance to the gown.

There is a satin sash, which can go on or not, as the bride wishes.

This gown is perfect for an indoor ceremony, or a wedding held in cooler weather due to the weight of the fabric and the addition of the lace bolero.

Designed specifically for a ceremony that requires modesty, this gown is also a great choice for a bride who feels self conscious about her arms, shoulders or back, or who needs more support for her bust.

This lovely dress is available at Paper Doll Formals for a price that includes duty and taxes.

It is available in white or ivory, in sizes zero to 16.

Come in soon to see this and other Dresses of the Week.
