I feel like the adults in this series never actually listen to the teens style and just shop like they're shopping for themselves

[max]

Instead of this, I think they should’ve had a teen come on who is going to prom soon and maybe he doesn’t have enough money to buy an expensive fancy dress, help her pick one out. They spent the money anyways, why didn’t they use it in someone who maybe needed it more. I dunno...

[kaylenecrane]

I felt like the teen didn’t like her dress. She most likely wore something else

[arianawoods]

A little confused why they chose to reveal the outfits in the thumbnail... But ok?

[jude]

As someone who hates to show my toes, I would have hated her for picking those shoes =(

[vandy]

The adults outfit is amazing. The teen did a great job on hers, but the adult did the teen dirty, her outfit doesn’t even match.

[anisamaggiore]

personally i want to see a younger teen! maybe 16-17? like this comment if you agree so that as is sees it!!

[eveybadwolf]

Lol, when you work at Macy's and are kind of excited to see dresses you recognize 😂🤷.

[tyradaisy]

As the “teen” has tattoos and is older, do a teen actually going to prom

[afarameez]

so many ways to say you don't like the outfit

[Reffieness]

I highly doubt she even wears that to prom. That will definitely go to a friend. Didn’t seem like her style or her vibe, as they said several times.

[Vicburmester]

The teen look didn’t feel special to me :/

[tealdiamonds]

Tbh the real challenge would be having plus sized girls find good dresses cause there still aren’t a ton of good options that are easy to find

[kainovember]

So the teen isn't even a teen? 😂She said she never went to senior prom

[Rikeilan]

I think the dress at 2:43 would have been better for the teen

[leelulady]

I'd rather see teens shop together for their own looks.

[twilightgurl]

Can there some be plus size in this series? I remember that shopping for prom as a plus size was kind of terrifying and difficult.

[ellie]

is it just me or is something about this video just.. bland

[angelicamorales]

The necklace doesn't match the dress. Like TOTALLY DOESN'T MATCH. 😭

[ButtonGirl]

All the ppl saying these aren’t prom looks and I wore basically the exact same dress as Mei to my prom lol
