90s style is all the rage. I recently got a blast from the past by watching 10 Things I Hate About You with Julia Stiles, Heath Ledger, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Larisa Oleynik. It was marvelous. In the film, Bianca's pretty in pink prom dress -- or prom crop top with a hot pink tulle skirt, as it should be called -- is way too chic to ignore. The separate pieces give it a relaxed feel but the satin & tulle show some glamour. I simply couldn't resist recreating the iconic look. We all love Kat but this post is about Bianca. Get the look with Bianca's prom dress from 10 Things I Hate About You!
There are two vital items to start off your iconic look. The first thing you need is a shiny, bright pink crop top or metallic cropped tank top. It doesn't have to be too cropped just enough to show a sliver of skin. The next thing is a somewhat long pink tulle skirt! You can even go for a floor-length pink tulle skirt. You will look like a lovely pink ballerina. These two make a whimsical, vintage-inspired pair. Once you find these key items the rest is up to you. You can even wear a slip dress under if you can't find the right shirt. There are many dresses that you can go with!

Not a skirt person? try it with a pink pair of pants or trousers. You can even add pants with the tulle.
Possible items you can use to recreate Bianca's 10 Things I Hate About You prom dress:
- Hot pink tulle skirt - Find it on Amazon
- Floor-length pink skirt - Find it on Amazon
- Women's Ruffle Short Sleeve Tie Up Off Shoulder Blouse - Find it on Amazon
- Sleeveless pink metallic cropped tank - Find it on Amazon
- Rhinestone Butterfly Choker Necklaces Glitter Pink - Find it on Amazon
- Chunky silver pumps - Find them on Amazon
Bianca and Kat are sisters. Each one dresses differently with their unique style. During the prom scene in 10 Things I Hate About You with Julia Stiles & Heath Ledger, Bianca holds a unique satin pink bag. It's hard to find something quite like it so I did my best to search for an alternative. All you need is a bold pink coin purse that's small enough to hold your essentials but not large enough to hide the world.
Accessorize your prom look with a dainty & sweet necklace of your choice. You might as well go with a retro 90s looking choker necklace. If you have a genuine necklace from the 1990s that's even better, but not all of us are so lucky as to have those lying around. The stretchy chokers are very cheap & easy to find these days.

The last thing you'll need to complete Bianca's iconic prom dress look is a pair of cute strappy heels. You'll only need a darling pair to last long enough to capture for the photos. By the time you start dancing you'll probably take them off after a couple of songs. That's how it normally goes at dances. I can vouch for that because dancing in high heels is no easy feat. This 10 Things I Hate About You prom dress could even be used as a Halloween costume or worn to your next event.
What do you think of this 10 Things I Hate About You outfit inspired by Bianca's prom dress? Which is your favorite piece? Have you seen the film? Who is your favorite character? :]

DeleteThat skirt is the cutest! Isn't it funny how the 90's are coming back already? Makes me wish I never got rid of my clothes from that time! Hahah that includes overalls, jean skirts, and all my glittery stuff. Love this inspiration post! I don't think i'm ballsy enough to wear all of that pink at once but the separates are tempting :)

I wish I had my 90s clothes too but then again I was just a kid so I bet nothing would fit. :]
DeleteI don't know that I have ever seen this film...or maybe I did and don't remember. I love the look you put together, especially the cut of the top!

DeleteNot going to lie...some of the 90s style that is coming back I love! It's so true that things will always come back! Love the crop top and full skirt, such unique proportions that work so well together!
ReplyDeletewww.laurenfarrellny.com/blog
The proportions are just so perfect. A little bit of a crop top with a long skirt. Just love it. :]
DeleteI think this is so much fun, especially as inspiration for prom or something!

I never watched the TV show but I recently watch the movie again with my family again. Good stuff. :]
DeleteBelieve it or not, I haven't seen this movie despite the raving reviews I hear about it! I do like tulle skirts though just have no occasion to wear them unfortunately. Super cute look though :)
ReplyDeleteSam | http://mybeautycloud.com
I guess we just have to make the occasion! Pairing a fancy looking tulle skirt with a basic tee & flats could tone it down a bit. :]
