Ask Your K: Vintage Halston for Prom

vintage halston dress
Dear Kristopher,
I have my prom coming up, and I’m desperately trying to find that one perfect dress: not unflattering, not at all typical, and gorgeous, and hopefully, something that fits in with my budget and stands out in a crowd. I’m short, with doll-like features and dark hair. I have an ulterior motive: my ex is going to be at that prom and I’d prefer not to appear too drab or too run-down. I admit, I would rather look nonchalantly fabulous, and make sure that when we casually bump into each other I’m not going to be the one regretting my choice. Any suggestions?

– Camille

Your K actually traded her La La Land prom for Puccini — the idea of dressing to the nines was tempting, until I realized I could dress to the tens and hit the opera instead. And while I still have the vintage LBD I rocked, I’m wishing I’d girled about town in this 24K, 1977 Halston dress.

Pure, iconic S-E-X, though I’m afraid you and I both have better things to do with a few Gs. So invest instead in this brick red, one-shouldered Halston, for few Mr. Benjamins — in a timeless cut, the frock will rock right for your big high school night, and grow up with you past prom.

Unlike that silly boy that let you go.
