Shopping for a homecoming dress is super fun, but it can be hard to find a really cute gown on a budget. To help you out, I’ve found 10 gorgeous dresses under $100.
Hey, you worked hard on that tan this summer! Whether you earned it by the pool or it came from a bottle, you probably want to show it off at the dance. This homecoming dress would do just that. The pale pink color will contrast nicely with your tan and since you have a little more color on your skin it won’t wash you out! The lace detail elevates the look while the simple silhouette is sure to be flattering. The pom-poms that line the neckline are a really cute edition. The layered skirt is super flattering and makes the dress extra feminine! Pair this with some simple jewelry and plain heels to let this dress shine. This would look really nice with beachy waves or a messier updo. This dress is definitely better for more of a casual dance.

This dress may be pretty simple, but that just means you can have some fun dressing it up with some accessories! It comes in a few different colors so you can totally find one to suit your style. The thicker straps will provide extra support and the neckline will provide some coverage if you’re busting up the dance floor. Of course, the best part of this dress is the skirt. It passes the most important test for homecoming dresses: does it flare out when you spin? If you’re planning on dancing the night away, this is definitely a dress you should check out! Dress it up with a super sparkly belt, matching heels, and statement earrings!

If you have a flair for the dramatic or want to channel Ariana Grande, check out this homecoming dress that is impossibly glittery. No one will be able to take their eyes off you when you’re on the dance floor in this! The sweetheart neckline combined with the looser skirt is so super flattering. This dress is both dramatic and feminine. This dress would also look so great with a tan or on a darker skin tone. You wouldn’t have to put much thought into accessories if you’re wearing this dress because on it’s own it’s a huge statement!

If you’re looking for a homecoming dress that’s elegant and modest without making you look matronly, check out this super cute red number. It’s tailored so you’ll still have a figure but the loose skirt, high neckline, and sleeves make this dress more modest. You don’t have to sacrifice style for a little bit more coverage. The scalloping detail on the neckline and the flared out skirt make this dress super feminine and adorable. Add a belt for some added glamour or pair it with pearls if you’re trying to look a little more old Hollywood. If that’s the route you go, you could put your hair in an updo or pin curl it to really get that vintage look.

If you liked the first dress but want something with a little more coverage, check out this gorgeous coral dress! The v-neck is super flattering and will show off your assets, but the sleeves give you a little more coverage. But seriously, look how cute those sleeves are! I’m loving for the polka-dot like lace and the ruffles! The skirt is long enough you won’t have to worry too much about flashing anyone but short enough you won’t feel like you’re drowning in fabric. Pair this with an updo to let the bodice of the dress shine. Pair this with gold accessories and a glowy look to really highlight the peach color of the dress!

I’m totally here for the fashion of Taylor Swift’s new era, and if you are too, you should check out this maxi dress. It totally reminds me of the dress she wore to the Time 100 Most Influential People event this year. If you’re hoping to get that look or if you’re hoping to look more bohemian, this is a great dress to try! Pair it with strappy gold sandals and gold accessories to really play into the goddess look. This would look really good with a simple necklace to draw attention to your collarbone.

Was that red dress not quite modest for you? Or maybe you’re hoping for a super sophisticated look! This is a gorgeous dress that will give you a lot of coverage without making you look like you’ve just wrapped yourself in fabric. The color is absolute beautiful, and the tie in the front adds some interest. It is a pretty simple look, but again, that just means you have more opportunity to accessorize! Add a statement necklace to make it more dramatic, or wear pearls to play into the demure look. This would also look so cute with a pale pink hijab!

I feel like freshman year of high school Aria from Pretty Little Liars would be all over this homecoming dress. The sparkle on the bodice makes this fancier and more flashy and the skirt adds some drama. And again, the skirt of this dress passes the spin test! I’m also so obsessed with the double strap. It’s such a small detail but it really adds something to the dress. If it’s your style, this would look great with red or black heels, but you could totally rock this with combat boots. Heeled combat boots, if you’re feeling fancy! You could rock this with your hair down like the model, but I think this would look great with hoops like this with your hair pulled back into a ponytail to let the sweetheart neckline shine.

Looking to really make a statement with a more unique look this year? This homecoming dress is super interesting and you’re sure to stand out in it! The structured frills on the shoulder are super whimsical, and the yellow and purple color scheme isn’t something you see every day. The shape is super flattering, and I love how the bottom has a little bit of a skirt to add some femininity and make it a little more fun. There are tons of ways you could accessorize this dress, but I’d wear it with some purple heels or try putting on a black belt to really accentuate the waist.

Last but not least, a super classy look for those of us who prefer Elizabeth Taylor and the glamor of the good old days. The shape and style of this look is super classic and looks like the kind of thing Kate Spade would sell (but this dress has a much friendlier price tag). Just imagine how cute this would look with pearl earrings and a matching pearl necklace. You could pair it with nude or black heels, or try to find matching pink heels to really play up the color. Add a classic red lip and you’re ready to make an entrance!
