We know the look you want: eye-catching sophistication&nbsp;with a touch of sexy and a touch of quirky (you know, for that <em>you<\/em> factor). What&#8217;s great for you is that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/archive\/prom-dress-trends\/\">prom dress trends<\/a> have evolved \u2014 and we&#8217;ll say thanks to a Kardashian or two \u2014 well beyond the short, full skirt, strapless styles in wild colors of years past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You now have your pick of elegant, chic and Insta-worthy gowns that&#8217;ll have you feeling&nbsp;like you&#8217;re heading to the Grammys with your up-and-coming, pop singer boyfriend. When we sifted through the prom dress options for 2017, we found&nbsp;one&nbsp;trending style that&#8217;s sure to be a hit this year, and that&#8217;s the two-piece dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Two pieces trending<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Two-pieces have&nbsp;already taken&nbsp;over&nbsp;your everyday spring wardrobe&nbsp;and they&#8217;re not&nbsp;pumping the brakes when it comes to formal wear, either. That means this prom season is about to show some skin and get some edge. From classic ballgown styles to slinky beaded numbers to short and sassy styles, the two-piece set&nbsp;is making an appearance on some of the best dress of the year. Here are four picks we love, all for less than $100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Two-piece prom dress picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The crop top + skirt<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1467\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/macys.jpeg\" alt=\"prom dress trends - the two-piece dress, a crop top and high-waited, full skirt\" class=\"wp-image-114037\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/macys.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/macys-245x300.jpeg 245w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/macys-768x939.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/macys-838x1024.jpeg 838w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Blondie Nites Juniors&#8217; 2-piece Halter Gown, $69.99, Macys<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The two-piece dress is not new&nbsp;to formal wear. After all women have been pairing shells and skirts, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/archive\/corsets\/\">corsets<\/a> and skirts, etc., etc., for&nbsp;centuries. But this time around, these babies show off a cool sliver of midriff skin. Crop tops teamed up with high-waist skirts ensure you&#8217;re showing off just the right amount, at the smallest part of your torso. This combo&nbsp;is available in a range of&nbsp;necklines, hemlines and skirt silhouettes, so&nbsp;there are options to flatter every figure.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"199\" height=\"372\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/screenshot-www.jcpenney.com-2017-04-24-13-13-07.png\" alt=\"prom dress trends - the two piece prom dress in white and floral\" class=\"wp-image-114040\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/screenshot-www.jcpenney.com-2017-04-24-13-13-07.png 199w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/screenshot-www.jcpenney.com-2017-04-24-13-13-07-160x300.png 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">My Michelle Sleeveless Dress Set-Juniors, $66.99, JCPenney<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The choker + dress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A second take on the two-piece is the dress with attached collar.
