Dress shoes in your style

Prom is undoubtedly an occasion requiring formal attire. Nothing will work better than a timeless suit, perfectly complemented by leather formal shoes.

If you want a classic effect, choose elegant footwear without any special accessories. Shoes without unusual buckles, contrasting seams or eye-catching decorations will work best.

On the other hand, adolescence is a perfect time to play with fashion. If you like to amaze with an extravagant look, choose less classic solutions and choose shoes that will make you stand out from the crowd.

Do you have any concerns about this solution? Colorful socks with a funny pattern will be a great compromise between classics and teenage madness. Combine them with a perfectly tailored suit and timeless slippers that will serve you for other formal occasions.

(Not)difficult to choose toes

Also pay special attention to the toes of your formal shoes. Although we have experienced many different solutions in fashion, the most elegant are classic round toes.

Under no circumstances should you choose shoes with square toes, they will optically shorten your legs and make you look as if you had stopped in time. Pointed toes in men's formal shoes will also not look very good.

As you can see, choosing the toe of your prom shoes is not as difficult as it may seem at first.

The color of prom shoes

Are you wondering what color formal shoes are best for prom? There is an unwritten rule in men's fashion that the more formal the occasion, the more subdued the styling should be. Choose shoe colors that complement your suit and do not create unnecessary contrast.

Black shoes are best with a black suit. This way you will achieve a vertical line along the body, which will optically slim it, and you will look really elegant.

However, shoes and a suit do not always have to be the same shade. If you are planning to wear a gray suit, a great solution is to combine it with brown accessories. The warm shade of brown will break the cold of gray, making you look extremely fashionable. If you don't like brown, you can easily choose black formal shoes. 

Some high school graduates decide to wear a white suit. If you don't want to look ridiculous, combine it with brown accessories. This option will go perfectly with both snow white and a warmer shade of ecru.

Regardless of what color shoes you choose, try to make sure the belt on your pants is a similar shade. This way you will achieve a consistent effect and look neat.

What instead of shoes?

Avoid wearing sports shoes with a prom suit. Your significant other could be disappointed and you would look sloppy. If you want to keep your favorite anyway casual style, you can successfully replace classic shoes with leather moccasins. 

However, remember not to wear socks with them or choose a low-cut model that will be invisible from under the shoe. Also make sure that your pants end just above the ankle. This way you will slim your legs and not look overwhelming.

When choosing loafers, give up the bow tie and replace it with a narrow tie. This way, the whole thing will look unobtrusive, but still chic.
