Get Her Prom Look
Take the plunge like Kara Tointon
Give a classic plunge-neck maxi a retro re-vamp with a panel of intricate lace for an elegant prom look. Kara Tointon has won the nation’s hearts as belle of the ballroom in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing and here she shows off her super toned arms in this sophisticated floor grazing number. Over the last few months, Kara has become known for flashing her flesh in dazzling outfits, but here she opts for a modest full length black gown that’s oozing with class. The lace panel adds detail, preventing the deep neckline from becoming overly revealing and the addition of a narrow belt synches in her waist. Try re-creating this look by layering a sleeveless lace body underneath this Glam by Caprice maxi dress. Detail around the waist means there’s no need for a belt and the silk fabric adds to the luxuriant feel. Like Kara, go for a simple up-do by gently back-combing the underneath sections of hair to add lift at the crown, then with your fingers smooth back into a ponytail and pin random sections. Frame eyes using a well sharpened Kohl pencil across the top and bottom lash lines, getting thicker at the outer corners. Carefully blend for a smoky look, keeping lips and cheeks neutral. When it come to accessories, add an oversized ring and a sleek clutch like this lacy hard case from Accessorize, and you too might bag yourself a hunky dance partner like Artem Chigvintsev.
