Are you thinking Prom yet? Folks in Bama are Associated PressShe, too, is working after school at Davis Eye Care in Athens to pay for prom expenses. That day, though, she was more intent on balancing on tall heels and matching her nail polish to her dress.
While parents count the cash, their sons and daughters are far more interested in the alluring magic of prom night. Nathan's on Beltline Road Southwest chose a Hollywood theme for its fashion show, encouraging students to treat themselves to a night of celebrity status. "When I went to prom, it was boring ... Now, it's all about glitz and glamour," said Carolyn Grimes of Nathan's Bridal in Decatur. "The prom is all about them, and it should be." Girls backstage were milling around in lengthy gowns that shimmered and glittered in the flashbulbs of cameras. Models practiced walking, hiking up their trains to teeter on rhinestone-studded heels. This year Even with the hard talk about money and the state of the economy, teens aren't giving up the giddy spirit of prom. The models chatter nervously backstage, then Grimes gives the signal that the show is about to start. A chorus of "Shh's" makes its way down the line, and the first couple walks out to flashes and applause. Some of the young women are nervous and barely pause before scurrying down the runway. Others flash a confident smile and strike a pose, taking a few spins in their fairy-tale gowns. No matter what the cost, these teens are proving they're ready for prom season. ___ Information from: The Decatur Daily, http://www.decaturdaily.com/decaturdaily/index.shtml Copyright 2009 The Associated Press.
