Cleavage-revealing frocks US teens’ latest prom choice
By ANIMonday, March 29, 2010
NEW YORK - Teenage girls in the US are said to be raising eyebrows by heading to their first big dance in cleavage-revealing frocks, bellybutton-baring gowns and nearly handkerchief size dresses.
Parents are being blamed, as the girls are following the trend of ’slutty chic’ to prom nights, the New York Post reported.
One sales associate at Saks Fifth Avenue: “I can’t believe that mothers let high-school girls buy these dresses for prom.”
Nathan Vaknin, manager of Fiesta Ladies Fashion, a dress store on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, said, “For prom this year, girls want short and poofy or long, tight-fitting, with everything cut out — the sides are gone, the back is gone, the front is basically gone.
“Personally, I think it’s too much, but we sell whatever puts money in our pocket. The parents might say no at first, but I don’t think anyone can convince these girls to get a dress besides the one they really want.” (ANI)
