Arrested for Prom Dress

filed under: tween & teen logic

Would you let your teen wear this to prom?

As first reported by khouTV, high-schooler Marche Taylor's unique style not only got her bounced from the formal event, but handcuffed too. A regular teen dating event turned unusual when the high school senior showed up to her Houston prom half naked and she was forbidden to enter for violating the dress code policy. After the high-schooler demanded her money back, an argument ensued and police were called, leading to her arrest.

first of all a prom is very formal, that dress does not look very nice. I think he/she could of bought something more classier and nicer that looked better on her/him!

I think that most of the commenters are being a little harsh. Lets not forget she is still a child no matter how grown she wants to appear. Entertainment plays a big role in how our childrens lives no matter how we try to deny it. Yes her mother should have stopped her but maybe her mother thought it was fine. Alot of mothers from my generation don’t know how to draw the line between being a friend and being a parent. And calling her a man is just mean people! The point is to help, not to degrade! We see that selfestem is not an issue for her, she just needs it to be applied in the right areas of her life.

The answer to this problem is very simple: Train a child up in the way they should go and when they are old they will no depart from it.

I think that her dress is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too revealing. Escpecially when you are going to a prom. DUHHHH! What was she thinking. If she was trying to look sexy and attractive, she must have been popping pills are something.

all though the dress was a bit revealing, it was extremely out of line to have the police intervene on her prom nite

I had my senior pro in 98 and I saw girls wearing far less then that and some girls came in long silk nightgowns. So what is the problem if a girl finds something for a dance that is one night a year and makes her feel good.

when u go to prom you are supposed to look pretty and proper and like you are growing up into a woman. if u dress like that (not that it isnt a good outfit on her) it isnt appropriate for the prom. at least thats my opinion

First of all all of you guys that are hating on this girl probably wouldn’t even be bold enough to say that stuff to her face. Trying to call her a dude is real mature grow up just because you wouldn’t wear something like this it doesn’t mean you have to call her a he/she. Personally i wouldn’t wear anything like that because it is too revealing especially to a prom. Yes i do agree that it could be a reason why guys call females what they do now. I wouldn’t wear it but ya’ll need to stop trying to call her names on here.

Prom is suppose to be a dance were you get to say your far wells and good-bys more often then not it is a high schoolers last chance to show their true colors. This dress was way out of perportion and i feel bad for the girl in some sense she seems to be a little mis guided. But i guess if its really how she wanted to be remembered there are much better ways to make a last impression. Poor choice for the young girl but as far as the arrest i can’t agree that was deserved. But i certainly would deny her from entering if i was a chaparone.

honestly people she is a teenager teenagers dress that way. get over it ya she probably shouldnt have worn that to prom but if you have the body for it the go for it. if i had that body and the guts during my prom i would of worn it. she doesnt have a stache it is the color of skin get over it different skin tones give off different shawdows. someone who is not mature in anyway could only bash somebody else like that on the internet. so get over it she looked hot it was just against her better judgement to wear it to prom…

seriously, she wasnt arrested for wearing the prom dress. she was arrested for causing such a huge disturbance and the riot she caused. the dress was tacky and disgusting. the dress kept her from getting into prom. it was her attitude and anger management problem that got her arrested. read more into it before you go “hate” posting and stuff. it only makes you look stupid.
