Colours & Statement Styles

Prom is the occasion where colour is not just permitted — it is expected. Classic black prom dresses and navy blue remain perennially strong choices for their versatility and flattery across skin tones. For something more vivid, emerald green, rose pink, yellow, and gold prom dresses are among the most searched UK prom colours — all available across the Goddiva range. Sequin and embellished styles belong in this category too — browse our sequin dresses for sparkly prom options within this edit.

Find Your Prom Dress Style

• A-line prom dress:  The most universally flattering silhouette for prom — a fitted bodice that flares from the waist, suits most body shapes, and works in both mini and maxi lengths.
• Mermaid & fishtail:  A fitted-through-the-body silhouette that flares at the hem — elegant, statement-making, and particularly strong for floor-length prom gowns.
• Prom dresses with sleeves:  Long sleeve and short sleeve prom dresses offer coverage and elegance — a strong choice for more conservative dress codes or cooler-weather prom venues.
• Mini & short prom dresses:  For prom after-parties and celebrations where a longer length would feel overdressed — bold, confident, and easy to dance in.
• Plus size prom dresses:  The full Goddiva prom range includes plus size prom dresses across every silhouette and colour, designed with the same attention to fit and finish as the main collection.
