LFHS Prom 2026 is not one we should not leave In The Clouds, so let’s rewind and take a look at some of the best looks of the night.

Addington Leahy

Senior Addington Leahy looked absolutely stunning at this year’s prom in her sequin, light pink dress, designed by Bronx and Banco. She complimented the sparkly look perfectly, with a pair of golden bow flats from Nordstrom, earning a place among the night’s best dressed.

Caitlin O’Shea

Senior Caitlin O’Shea absolutely nailed it in her bold Cult Gaia mini dress. The structure of the dress paired with the layered texture gives the look so much movement, and the red makes her impossible to miss. O’Shea paired this dress with her two toned Heaven Mayhem earrings and Loffler Randall heels. She looks playful while polished, and the dress feels effortlessly confident—just like her.

Tess Uihlein

Senior Tess Uihlein looked effortlessly elegant in her Helsi dress. The floral embellishments paired with the subtle shimmer gave the look a fun feel while still making a statement. Uihlein was an easy standout on prom night, accessorizing subtly, yet classily, with her gold Jane Win pendant.

Vivi Storino

Stealing the spotlight came naturally to junior Vivi Storino in her green Bardot gown. The satin and sequined detailing created an effortless silhouette which made her look both glamorous and timeless. She paired this dress with a gold drop necklace and gold heels, enhancing her look flawlessly.

Izzy Lorenz

Junior Izzy Lorenz was on theme for this year’s prom in her mermaid-style, floral Mamma Mia inspired dress, from Sherri Hill. Lorenz completed this remarkable look with a simple stone necklace from Claire’s.

Francesca Brincat

Junior Francesca Brincat glided down the red carpet in a beautiful blue pleated dress from ASTR the Label. The wavy texture added the perfect dimension to compliment her look. Brincat finished this outfit with a gorgeous pair of golden heels from Aiunllnd.

This year’s looks brought a mix of classic styles and trendier pieces making each dress stand out in a unique way. From bold colors to simple silhouettes, the variety showed how personal style can completely shape a look and make it a memorable night.
