Prom season 2009 is almost here. According to the runway watchers, this year's prom season is all about individuality. Forget about the lockstep look for this spring. This year's hottest styles are that which let your personality shine through in all its glory. Here are some of the hottest tips and trends for this year's prom. Colors POP!There's nothing shy about this season's color palettes. Vibrant, shimmering, eye-popping colors are what it's all about. This is the year to rock the neon colors and really let your-self be heard with energized jewel tones. Hit the dance floor in colors that shimmer and shine, and all eyes will be on your every move.
Pick out your favorite colors and zap them with a jolt of high energy. Power up to electric blue, jolting yellow and neon green. Mix them up with zappy black and white prints that really make the colors sizzle, or wear them on their own and be the sizzle yourself.
Show off your back and shoulders in a strapless apple red gown in tissue taffeta with a pickup trumpet skirt and back ruching. You can also slip into a slinky lime green dress in silky knit that hugs your curves and captures everyone's attention. Add little details like a flounced mocked train and criss-cross spaghetti straps to really make a personal style statement.
Prints with Pizzazz!
Be a printed princess at the prom with some of the most dazzling designs that the runway has ever seen. Sophisticated silhouettes take on an edge when you pair them up with playful prints. Animal prints show up in colors that nature never intended. Mix it up with oversize black and white geometric prints. Pick bold floral prints or even bolder abstracts in jewel-tone brights and fruit-drenched colors. Not sure how to mix up the patterns? Here are just a few ideas to help spark your creativity.
• Go retro with black and white polka dots in a vintage-styled dress that combines a chic 50's silhouette with a very today scattering of shimmering black paillettes. The tulle underskirt and tea length hem are a retro-inspired look that is totally in this spring.
• Floral prints don't have to be sweet and subtle. Pick a bouquet of flowers that really packs a punch of eye-popping color. Border prints and hand-painted floral accents in bright pink, blue and green have a thoroughly mod, almost psychedelic look that really stands out in a crowd.
The Long and Short of It

From teeny minis that show off your legs, to hems that sweep the floor, this year's hottest prom styles are all over the map.
