New source offers advice for promgoers



BALTIMORE SUN
It wasn't so long ago that young people relied solely on the February and March issues of favorite teen magazines for all that one needed to know about the prom. What to wear, how to coif, where to go after -- it was all there in black and white.
Well, there's a new prom advice source in town. PromAdvice.com (www. promadvice.com) doles out all kinds of info, from dress and makeup trends to how to ask someone to the biggest dance of the year.
The site, produced by the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, is meant to promote the college and its alumni, but there's also some great advice about going to a prom on a budget, what guys should wear and whether you should match your makeup to your dress.
And it's all right there in cyberspace.
