I need a modest prom dress, but they are either beautiful and too expensive or they are very ugly and cheap.
My mum insists that we buy a prom dress but I don’t like that ones I have seen so far.
How can I tell her that I would rather sew my own dress than to go to prom looking like everyone else? My worst fear is that she won’t listen.

Do you sew well? Would you consider making a dress that could be shortened later?
Have you priced out what it would cost to make the dress you envision?
Make a plan for the dress you want, and then talk to your mum again, showing her what you would like to do. Mums are generally reasonable sorts when approached with the right information.
Trust me dear just buy one, been there tried that..
If you cant find any dresses that you like try checking out websites that sell dresses, i order online JUST TO be sure that my dress wont have a twin sister when prom comes.. plus their much more affordable
