Gossip Girl goes prom shopping: The dresses are sexy, short, and affordable

editor

 When it comes to shopping for prom this year, according to our friends at Yahoo Search, you've been looking for dresses that are sexy, on the short-side, and not too pricey. The Thread took one lucky viewer— and her mom!— to Macy's Herald Square where Gossip Girl Amanda Setton helped her find the perfect look.  



Daughters want to be original, but not too out there. Sexy, not trashy. Moms (who are probably footing the bill) want to be OK with the price, and most of all, both of you want the final look to be fantastic. We scoured the racks for the biggest trends (hot pink, ballerina skirts, florals) and got the lovely Amanda Setton's take on which dresses she preferred. (Plus, we got the inside scoop on whether or not there's going to be a prom episode for the girls at Constance Billard. We had to ask!) See which dress Amanda picked for Lindsay and let us know if you love it, too.

We think Gossip Girl Amanda Setton has great style.  Check out all her recent red-carpet looks.

      I HATE it when these videos automatically play on pages such as "Fashion and Beauty". Please stop that.
