The One Reason Alice + Olivia Is Perfect For Prom

by Melodi Erdogan

We're in the last leg of prom season, and if you have yet to find the perfect dress and are officially freaking out about what to wear, there's one big reason why you should narrow your search to one store only. Fashion brand Alice + Olivia will be donating a prom dress for every dress sold to girls in both the Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City and Prep for Prep mentee programs through May 17. Shopping the brand this season means making sure the exciting high school event is a truly memorable experience for you and someone else.

Let's be real, choosing the dress you're going to wear for prom is half the fun of going at all. With a purchase of an Alice + Olivia dress online at aliceandolivia.com or in one of the brand's free-standing stores during the "Buy A Dress, Give A Dream" promotion, you'll be helping another teen get the dress of her dreams. According to Fashionista.com, Alice + Olivia will also hold a special event for the mentees of the programs so that they can try on and take home their dresses. This special shopping event is no doubt a very charitable way to approach prom shopping.

And the dresses at Alice + Olivia are so prom chic. No need to stress over what to wear anymore, because its selection ranges from brightly colored flowing midi dresses to gorgeous metallic shift dresses. With options for every style and aesthetic, it's a one-stop-shop for a formal event like prom.
