New York Teen Girls Threaten Each Other Over Wearing Same Dress To Prom

[Initech]

It’s every teenage girl’s nightmare — showing up to prom in the same gown as another — but now many are taking to social media to avert such a fashion disaster.

This prom season, girls are laying claim to their gowns of choice by posting photos of the outfits — sometimes right from the store dressing room — on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Tumblr.

Parents may be alarmed at the titles of some of the online prom-dress groups. Names like “Bitch Don’t Steal My Dress” and “Steal My Prom Dress and I’ll Knock You The F--k Out” are common.

A Brooklyn Tech prom page on Facebook greets users with, “Welcome to the page where you tell people you’ll physically hurt them over formal wear.”

But the 466 users who have posted pictures since December are just kidding about ballroom bloodshed.

“I don’t see seriously mean comments, just compliments and likes,” said Sara Zhong, a senior at the school.
