In the United
States , and increasingly in the United
Kingdom and Canada , prom (short for promenade) is a semi-formal (black tie) dance or gathering of high school students. It is typically held near
the end of the senior year (i.e., the last year of high school). It figures
greatly in popular culture and is a major event among high school students.
High school juniors attending the prom may call it "junior prom"
while high-school seniors may call it "senior prom" or "senior
ball". In practice this may be a combined junior/senior dance.
At
prom, a Prom Queen and Prom King may be revealed. These are honorary titles
awarded to students chosen in a school-wide vote prior to the prom, and are
usually given to seniors. Juniors
may also be honored, but would be called "Prom Prince" or "Prom
Princess." Other students may be honored with inclusion in a "Prom
Court." The selection method for Prom Court is similar to that of Homecoming Queen/Princess, King, and Court.
Inclusion in a Prom Court may be a reflection of popularity of those chosen and
their level of participation in school activities, such as clubs or sports.The
Prom Queen and Prom King may be given crowns to wear. Members of the Prom Court
may be given sashes to wear and photographed together.
Boys
usually dress in black or white formal wear, regardless of the time of the
event, sometimes paired with brightly colored ties or bow ties with vests,
in some cases in colors matching their date’s dress. Most are rented from
stores that specialize in formal wear rentals.
Girls
wear traditional ladies' dresses or gowns and wear ladies’ jewellery such as
earrings and a necklace. Traditionally girls wear perfume, and make-up such as
eyeshadow, lipstick and blush. Traditionally girls also wear a corsage, given to them by their dates,
and girls give boys matching boutonnières to be worn on their lapels.
