The 10 Best Movie Prom Dresses and How To Wear Them Today

For most of us, our earliest memories of Prom happened on the big screen. Movies like Pretty in Pink, Carrie and Never Been Kissed (depending on your age) all probably played at least a minor role in your expectations of the big night.

The rumors have finally been replaced with an actual date: On May 28, 2010, Sex and the City 2 hits the silver screen, though we bet there won’t be a silver hair in sight on screen.
