Standing out is not the easiest thing to do on prom night. There are possibly hundreds of other girls flaunting decedent gowns and high-end heels.

But there is hope. If glitz, glamour and standing about the crowd are your goals this prom season then go no farther. We have an option that will take you to the next level.

Rhinestone accents and embellishments have come back with a vengeance. It has become a high-end element that stretches across the entire face of fashion. We are not talking about the BeDazzled jeans that you made in third grade. This is the next tier in prom fashion.

Prom collections are covered with rhinestones. 2012 is the best year to be seen. With rhinestones it is possible to be subtle but that is completely up to you. With this type of deco you can easily stand above the rest. Jovani and Tony Bowls are the biggest rhinestone advocates in prom design. Their collections are filled to the brim with rhinestone detailing. A major seller in the Jovani collection is a black mini with a fully covered rhinestone bodice. There are so many forms of rhinestone incorporation that you can find nearly any concept that you require.

Detail with Class

Some gowns are even made with fully stocked rhinestone fabrics; strap to ankle. Dazzling gowns that glisten at every turn and twist are a bold way to make a statement. Tony Bowls has several full-rhinestone gowns that are nearly impossible to out-do. The fading effect is a transitional look that appeals to many prom-goers. This is achieved by using solid rhinestone coverage on one end of the gown and slowly fading to a solid colored fabric at the dress' opposite end. The full-bodice coverage is favored over many train covered options.

Back detailing is a beautiful and gentler approach for those who crave shimmer without all-over coverage. There are hundreds of dresses that offer intricate rhinestone detailing that wrap around to cradle the back. Something as simple as an embellished halter strap can easily turn into an intricate pattern of swirls and dips when viewed from behind. Many dresses have plain fabric fronts but when viewed from the back angle it becomes a whole new story. This is called hidden detailing. It is not necessarily hidden but it is only viewed from one specific angle. This is a flirty version of rhinestone detailing that most women enjoy.

Rhinestones can also be found in a variety of sizes. Smaller rhinestones are used for a full-coverage effect while larger, sometimes quarter-sized rhinestones are used for strap and bust detailing. Large rhinestones can be a stunning display and make more of an impact that full coverage. Bodice coverage using large rhinestones may be exactly what you need to stand above the crowd.
