Do: Bright and Bold Colors - If you want to feel rock star fab, then take a page out of Rihanna's book and go with bright and bold colors. It's almost summertime, so a bright pink, purple, green, or a bold blue would be majestic for prom.

Do: Go Green - Emerald green flatters women of color and is a chic choice. Serena Williams looked regal in a strapless green lace dress that she played up with silver jewelry (we also like gold), red nails, smoky eyes and a nude lip.   (Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)

Do: Mermaid - Mermaid styles with longer, fitted silhouettes that taper at the knee help show off curves swimmingly. Work a modern take on the classic style like the hippy Kim Kardashian did with a black cutout gown with capped sleeves.   (Photo: Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images)

Do: Asymmetrical - This style reigns supreme and if you have power arms like First Lady Michelle Obama, why not show them off! The cut is flattering, however our busty babes should make sure that the material provides enough coverage so that you’re not spilling out. (Photo: Mark Wilson/Getty Images)

Do: Be Transparent  - Sheer detailing and paneling on dresses is hot for 2012, but there is a thin line between looking like a sheer genius or a sheer terror. Sheer isn’t about looking half naked, it’s about subtle sexy, like Zoe Saldana’s gown. Black is an easy way to execute the trend but greys, greens and dark blues can also keep it interesting. Whatever you do: always wear undergarments! Skin colored or black lingerie will help keep you covered without looking completely obvious. (Photo: Pascal Le Segretain/Getty Images)

Do: Sparkle and Show a Little Leg - Sequins are festive and an effortless way to go chic whether you go with a full on shimmering dress, or just work a top or smaller details, like Paula Patton in this sequin and feather mini. And don’t be afraid to show a little leg — it’s not all about gowns.  (Photo: Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images)

Do: See Red - Have you peeped how smoldering stars like La La Anthony have been looking on the red carpet in bold red gowns? The classic color is sure to make a statement and since it’s such an eye-catching choice, keep hair fresh and fuss free and don’t go overboard on the makeup. A smoky eye using gold or gunmetal hues will help add allure and a nude lip will help give balance.   (Photo: Theo Wargo/Getty Images)

Do: Rock a Mullet - Once upon a time we’d run for the hills at the word “Mullet,” but unlike the unfortunate hairstyle, the dress style makes for a cute cut that will show off your killer legs (see Jessica White). We particularly like two-tone dresses that add a pop of color on the inside of the train.  (Photo: Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images)

Beyoncé - Celebrity moms have a lot of help getting their pre-baby bodies back, but some comebacks are nothing short of miracles. Beyoncé didn't do much to squash those crazy fake pregnancy rumors when she hit the stage in Atlantic City just five months after giving birth. She wore a tassled bodysuit and looked better than ever!(Photo: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images)

Do: Shimmer - If you'd like to make a statement at your prom that will last for years, shimmer a little. Take some serious notes from Beyonce and don't be afraid to explore glitter, beading, sequins, and embroidery when it comes to your prom dress. You only have one prom, so make it memorable.(Photo: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images)
