1. The Queen B
Who wouldn't want to be queen of Constance herself, Blair Waldorf? With her Breakfast at Tiffany flashbacks and five-second breakdowns, every girl would dream of going to prom (and getting dressed up with Dorota at hand) as her. Go full out with a long ball gown with a classic updo or wear your hair down in soft waves. Dazzle everyone with an elegant pair of earrings or sparkling necklace. If you're not a fan of long gowns, you can also opt to wear a dress that falls above the knee.

2. The Sultry Siren
If you're going for a more daring look, try a messy up do accented with hair ribbons or a bead necklace turned into a hairband. Or you can rock Serena’s signature look on Gossip Girl by curling your hair to create messy waves. Slip into a fitted dress that hugs your body and pair with super high heels.

3. The Cute High Schooler
Before the raccoon eyes and shaggy hair, Li'l J was actually kind of cute on Gossip Girl. So why not throw on a frock you created yourself (or okay, something you designed?) and make the dance floor your catwalk?

4. The Colorful Asian
Want to embrace your chinky eyes and olive skin? Stand out in a jewel-toned dress and a super fierce fringe just like Gossip Girl's Kati Farkas. Who says you need to look like the rest of your class? Be in a class of your own by stepping out in your own style.

5. Golden Curls
Think your frizzy hair has no hope? Just spritz some anti-frizz product and let your curls loose. Think of Gossip Girl's Is Coates when you make your entrance. Put on a white dress with gold or silver accents to highlight your natural tan.

6. Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice
Are you the pretty, cool, and popular kid from back home but is now faced with the horror of starting over at a new school? Wow your new classmates with a simple dress and color coordinated accessories just like Annie Wilson on 90210.

7. Punk Rocker Princess
Are you getting dragged to your prom just because you have to? Don't worry, you don't need to come in a pink frilly gown with a tiara. Just slip on a simple satin dress and wear your hair down. Spice it up with some funky accessories and you're good to go. Make like Silver from 90210 and do a live blog of your prom. But remember, no bashing!

8. The It Girl
Are you the head cheerleader, girlfriend of the basketball team's captain, and president of your school's student council? Maybe you can dress up just like 90210's Naomi Clark. A little black dress with a few ruffled accents, stilettos, and swipe on some red gloss. You're ready to go home with that Prom Queen crown, girl!

9. The Girl from the `50s
For the fan of mod and retro dresses, channel The Piemaker’s girlfriend on Pushing Daisies with A-line dresses in spring colors and floral prints. Go for bright colors and for an added punchline, why not have your hair done ala beehive? :P
