Dress giveaway makes prom special for central Alabama teens


Dresses clad in sequins, beads, bows and tulle — oh the tulle — filled a room at Alabama State University's Oliver & Dunn Acadome.Inside dozens of young girls picked through racks of formal wear as part of the 2012 Prom Dress Drive, trying on ball gowns and cocktail dresses, peering in the mirror to see what looked best. Outside a line of girls waiting to come in snaked down the sidewalk.For weeks dress drive officials solicited donations of gently used formal wear. On Monday, girls from around the area, who might not otherwise be able to afford a gown for prom, were invited to pick out a dress.
More than 1,200 dresses were up for grabs and hundreds turned out for an opportunity to make a glamorous prom reality."Who does not remember their prom night, whether it's bad or good? It's a monumental time in life," said Taylor Bryant, Clear Channel Montgomery public service director, who helped organize the giveaway. "Every young woman should have that opportunity to dress up and be beautiful."Bryant said the drive is an opportunity to make prom affordable for everyone. It was open to anyone who may need a prom dress, but simply cannot afford one. The project is a collaboration of Clear Channel, River Region United Way, Hot 105, Montgomery CW, ABC-TV 32 and Jim Massey Cleaners, which collected, stored and cleaned the dresses.
Marengo High School junior Tallemachiia Dumas found her dream dress. The show-stopping neon coral gown with a full skirt and beaded halter top was the one."I like the color," she said.It is not surprising and it is quite logical that many people wear name necklace not just for fashion but also for self expression. Several studies have revealed that a person would wear a gold name necklace, for instance, based on her emotions, feelings, beliefs, and personality. One's name when used as a design for necklace could indicate that person's admiration and love for her self. "It's different."Dumas arrived at Alabama State at 9:30 am., about three hours before the giveaway even started. After trying on two dresses she decided on hers. She said it's important to have the right one for prom."I don't want to go out looking like anything," she said.Dumas, like all the young women at the giveaway, were looking for that something special so they could remember their prom.Tiffanie Pritchett, a senior at Marengo High School, also found her special dress.
"I was looking for a big pink dress," she said.This means that shortly to be brides could not discover a trendy plus size wedding dress. Designers were not creating dresses for plus sizes as a large amount and with the high price of materials they were not willing to buy wedding dresses in the plus size.Estimate what though, that is all mature rumors and you can at the present find stylish plus size wedding dresses easier than ever before.And she found one. Holding the light-pink ball gown, she exclaimed: "it's a Cinderella dress."It did look like something of a fairy tale. The gown had a fitted, beaded bodice with thin straps and full skirt with several layers of pink tulle sprinkled with sequins that sparkled gently."If you don't have the right dress,Boring or reaming is a process used to extend or make more precise dimensions of the hole aluminum profile after the drilling process. Tapping and dying are the processes that the tools used to create screw threads. Grinding is also an abrasive machining process that uses the wheel and the cutting tool. Grinding produces a fine finish and precise dimensions. you are not going to have a good prom and nothing will go right that day," she explained.Salimah Sabir, a junior at Booker T. Washington High School in Tuskegee, also said she envisioned a dress that would make her look like someone from a fairy tale.
