'Vampire Diaries' Style: How to Dress Like Elena and Caroline for Your Own Prom

The Mystic Falls vamps are celebrating prom night, and in typical Vampire Diaries fashion, they're doing it in high style. Sneak peek photos from the upcoming April 18 episode have revealed Elena and Caroline's prom dresses — and they're both gorgeous.

Elena is wearing a vibrant strapless printed ball gown by Theia that retails for the hefty price tag of $1495 (and even if you could afford her exact gown, it's currently sold out). Caroline, meanwhile, looks stunning in an ivory strapless gown with intricate beading and a mermaid skirt by Sherri Hill that retails for $898.
