PROM princess or porn queen?
This prom dress is so skimpy, even the designer's CEO wouldn't let his teenage daughter wear it. But the dangerously revealing gown, prominently advertised in Seventeen Prom, YM Prom and Teen Prom, and on sale in a Midtown shop, is a top seller for the company this season.
"I was shocked when I first saw it, but now it's one of our top 20 dresses nationwide," says Nick Yeh, the CEO of Xcite, the Stafford, Texas, company that designed the dress and some 200 other styles this season.
"I have a 15-year-old daughter and, no, I would not recommend she wear this dress.
"As a businessman," he adds, "I'm not judging what a teenager should wear or not wear. It's up to the parents to decide for their own children."
In fact, some shops in smaller cities require girls to bring in parental permission slips to buy the dress, Yeh told The Post.
At Elite Designs, a formal shop in Midtown that has the barely-there gown on a mannequin, owner Surinder Nagpal says, "We've gotten a few calls about that dress. Originally, I wasn't going to stock [it], but my sales associate told me that girls would want it, so we're stocking it in black and red."
So far, says Helen Rodriguez, Nagpal's sales associate, no one has bought the $495 gown - but it just arrived.

Pictures please!
I should say NOT!
That is a sweet dress.
I wore a dress just like the black dress on the top row to my senior college ball... main difference being that the top was black sequins instead of guaze, same cut otherwise. It cost me $26 on E-Bay and I got many compliments.
I got a hundred bucks says no one wears that dress without falling out of it sometime during the evening.
Sound's like a candidate for a typical Jerry Springer Show: "Pregnant Mom Ho's"
And also...you are not worthy, mortal male.
Nite all, I will dream of young girls with boobs falling out at proms all over the country.
Looks like a couple of
wardrobe malfunctions
ARE SCHEDULED.
"Only whores wear outfits like that. Period."
And then only after they've been paid.
Well strictly speaking {before I go to bed}, amateurs who don't get paid could wear that dress.
Which reminds me.
How many gentlemen does one see, meet any more?
Gay prom dress?
ROTFLOL!! You made me choke! That is hilarious. :)

Ummmm...maybe I can borrow that dream???
At that age . . .
