Skimpy Dress Gets Teen Cuffed, Taken From Prom

[White Rain]

According to Houston television station KHOU, an official stopped Marche Taylor from entering the ballroom at a Houston-area hotel (http://www.wsbtv.com/education/16240201/detail.html#). Taylor was told the dress violated the school dress code.

"She shook her head, she was like you are not getting into this prom," Taylor told the television station. "We were arguing back and forth because I wanted to know why I can't get into my prom."

Madison High School Principal Aubrey Taylor said the dress was inappropriate and violated the rules.

I thought the dress was inappropriate as well, but that's the fat jealous lady in me talking.

It's not like it's offensive in this day and age. She's got it, she was flaunting it, that's all.

[Ntegrity]

It was totally inappropriate.

[KatK]

She knew it wasn't appropriate. I'd bet some colleges would frown on that gown too.

[GlitchWizard]

She knew it wasn't appropriate. I'd bet some colleges would frown on that gown too.

Most public places would. It wasn't indecent exposure, though, so no law would prohibit it. I will admit it's tasteless, but she did look cute in it.

[MagicRose99]

It was very inappropriate... I don't blame the school from putting their collective foot down and saying no to this girl.

[sweetmop]

That dress is over the top in my book, and I think it is very inappropriate.
I wouldn't allow my daughter to wear that to her prom.

[KatK]

Most public places would. It wasn't indecent exposure, though, so no law would prohibit it. I will admit it's tasteless, but she did look cute in it.
Cute, but (IMO) not particularily classy, much as she held her head high. :twocents: I guess I can be shallow and petty... :eek:

[Amraann]

I think the gown was a bit much but similar to other prom gowns I have seen over the past few years ...
My only question is do they enforce this at all after school events .. like football games etc??
Because I have been to plenty and typically in school dress code is not enforced at after school events...

Does this school allow their band for example to raise money doing car washes and if so are the girls wearing bikini's as I so often see??
Or even bikini tops with little shorts??

If they are then it needs to be all or not enforced at after school events at all.

[ljwf22]

I'm not sure I'd even put it in the 'dress' category. :eek:

[golfmom]

I'm not sure I'd even put it in the 'dress' category. :eek:

I'm with you ... it's beach wear.

[absinthe]

I can't see it :(

[KatK]

I can't see it :(

It is on the video at one of the two links. ETA: I don't know if this link (http://www.wsbtv.com/video/16238904/index.html) will bring up the video or not, but try it. If not, it is part of the first article WR linked.

[gardenmom]

I'm with you ... it's beach wear.

That is exactly what I thought! I would not let my daughter wear this dress. I wouldn't even classify it AS a dress!

[ShannonOhara]

My momma would not have let me leave the house in that!

[Amraann]

But again the issue is how the school enforces the dress code after school hours.

[KatK]

But again the issue is how the school enforces the dress code after school hours.
For things like Prom and Graduation they publish the dress code, what is expected of the students well beforehand. Sometimes you even have to sign a contract promising to follow the dress code before they hand you your tickets. I had to.

[White Rain]

The dress was VERY innappropriate, and I believe she knew that....but did she deserve to be cuffed? No.
UNLESS she made a huge scene and refused to leave...then, it may be understandable...
She had to have known she was showing too much skin....
In my high school tank tops were not allowed...and skirts/shorts had to come at least 2 inches past your longest (middle) finger with your hands straight down your side...and they WOULD measure....and you would be sent home or have to have a parent bring proper clothing...
I know they measured 'cause I myself had to do it once.
Actually what I said earlier about the tank tops...it's not only in high school here. 5 yrs ago I sent my daughter to school in a tank top...she was in freaking pre-k....and a note was sent home for me not to dress her in that again...
Oh my that suit was adorable...it was a light blue tank top w/ same colored capris and a same colored bandana...she looked so absolutely adorable. But I didn't dress her in it again, well, for school anyway.

There's got to be more to this story than this. She most likely put up some sort of fight.

Must depend on the school or county because I never had to. Neither did my daughter for her prom.

[CAgirlatheart]

The thing is that this was a school event, therefore the kids should act and DRESS appropriately. Her dress was outlandish, and I've seen some pretty revealing prom dresses lately. I have no doubt that if she wore this to a sporting event held at the school, she's still be turned away.

This girl wanted attention and she is definately getting it.

[Pepper]

I'm with you ... it's beach wear.

Yep, inappropriate.

[Jean]

I think the dress was very inappropriate.

[KatK]

Well, more the point I was hinting at was, it was a tiny podunk town, in 1991, and I had to sign a contract agreeing to go by the dress code and follow the provisos they put on who could escort me to the Prom also. I'm surprised to hear some schools *don't* do this now, since my school did back then, and it's often about ten years behind on some things. (Example: We could sing hymns as part of our school program when I was in High School choir.)

Podunk = As of the census of 2000, there were 2,975 people, 1,252 households, and 785 families in the city.

[bakerprune64]

My 14 YO had to sign an agreement about the graduation dress code as well as me, before they would let her buy tickets for the dance or purchase her cap & gown

[golfmom]

http://www.efluxmedia.com/content/news/news_17485.jpg

She made this dress herself.

Half her feaking boob was hanging out for cripes sake! She should have be banned from the dance IMO, talk about Hoochiefied:doh:

[j2mirish]

I just did this year for an 8th grade dance-

[pixies]

Her parents (or parent) must be proud.
I believe they also said she was not wearing "underwear". That just screams CLASSY!

[golfmom]

She knew what she was doing. There is no way she couldn't have expected to be refused entry in that dress. Her other complaint is that even after she tried to cover up that they wouldn't let her in ... well ... DUH ... all she wanted to do was wrap the little gold train around her. Just an invitation for a WARDROBE MALFUNCTION.

[sherri79]

There's got to be more to this story than this. She most likely put up some sort of fight. i think that is what happened. Marche Taylor said the only choices she was given but go home (http://www.wsbtv.com/education/16240201/detail.html#) or go to jail. she said they argued then she was given the choice. seems like she refused to accept the choice the school made.

once she refused to leave she was cuffed not for being a skank but for trespassing.

[bakerprune64]

Oh lord i knew something was fishy! Lol pun intended:rolleyes:

[White Rain]

That is what I was thinking...what is the difference in dressing like that on a prom date or in class?
You're warned, regardless....
She HAD to have put up some kind of fight for her to be put in cuffs...School chaperones would NOT have automatically called the cops to have her put in cuffes...there HAD to have been SOME kinda scene made.

[csds703]

i think that is what happened. she said they argued then she was given the choice. seems like she refused to accept the choice the school made.

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

My daughter wouldn't have gotten out of the bathroom in that dress.
PUHLEASE!

[tempusfugit]

I wouldn't have allowed my daughter out of the house in this dress. Where was the mother of this girl, did anybody else notice that there was no mention of parents? strange...

[White Rain]

http://www.efluxmedia.com/content/news/news_17485.jpg

She made this dress herself.

If she made this herself, well she is VERY talented and should audition for "Project Runway." She may stand a chance on there....
But this IS a high school prom, and innappropriate, IMO....
OMG I love my 2 daughters to death AND beyond, but I would NEVER allow them to dress like this for a school dance....
it's just too much, there is NO need for that much skin to be shown at a high school prom.

[golfmom]

i think that is what happened. she said they argued then she was given the choice. seems like she refused to accept the choice the school made.

once she refused to leave she was cuffed not for being a skank but for trespassing.

From what I'm reading, she demanded a refund and refused to leave and that's why the cops were called. :rolleyes:

[meowy]

I thought it looked a bit like she wrapped a curtain around herself a couple times.

[sherri79]

I thought it looked a bit like she wrapped a curtain around herself a couple times.
dang how small are your windows?

[txsvicki]

It's too bad the girl didn't make the dress to cover more and her night wouldn't have been ruined, unless she actually wanted this to happen for some reason. She's really pretty and I don't think she looked slutty, just not right for the prom. She should wear it to the Polynesian Islands.

[ljwf22]

:laugh:dang how small are your windows?

[SeriouslySearching]

I have seen hookers with more clothes on! I guess her mom approved of it.

It is more akin to beachwear. I don't think a bikini top and a sarong should be considered appropriate attire for any prom. It might have worked had she tied it around her neck and wore it flowing instead of showing tho. The problem wasn't the sarong actually, but the top and the skin showing. She could have "dropped out" one of those puppies easily on the dance floor!!

[philamena]

Imo, it was definitely inappropriate.
She knew it too.

[SuziQ]

She was also offered a "coverup", I'm not sure what that was. In another pic I saw somewhere, the pic was zoomed in, you could see the edge of her nipple area poking out.

[IndyLaw]

She could very easily have taken this same design and cut it so that her boobs would remain covered if she danced and the "skirt"would be more than 1/4" longer than her crotch. I don't think she was trying for classy - not while wearing flip flops.

I agree she had to to have created a scene - throwing on handcuffs is hardly the first reaction of educators who see kids push the limits every day.

[Emily Booth]

That's not a dress! Totally inappropriate for a school function.

[angelmom]

Please. She knew exactly what she was doing. She'll probably want to sue somebody for hurting her feelings like the trampy girl who got kicked off the airplane.

That is not a prom dress, or any kind of dress. Hell, I'm not sure she'd be allowed at our pool with that thing on!

Is her mama blind? B/c mine wouldn't have let me leave the house.

[philamena]

http://www.efluxmedia.com/content/news/news_17485.jpg

She shoulda used more fabric.

[philamena]

Oh my...nipples on prom night is a big nono!

[SeriouslySearching]

Oh my...nipples on prom night is a big nono!Ya think?! LMAO I would have to say the tiny skirt might even have been a bigger problem depending on what she had underneath it. Doesn't seem to be a large "supporter" of undergarments that I can see on top anyway. :eek:

[Mr. E]

Where were the girls' parents? How did they let her go to th prom like that??

She said she was told she'd either go to jail or go home, so it sounds like the school wasn't looking to charge her with anything. They just wanted her and her skanky dress to get away from their prom.

[Cubby]

I'm not sure I'd even put it in the 'dress' category. :eek:

I'd call it the "once you turn 21 and are hanging out at night club" attire. Or maybe dressy beach attire?

Why do young women believe they have to be so trashy to make a point these days?

[LillyRush]

It looks like she was trying to imitate outfits that I've seen Jennifer Lopez, and possibly Beyonce Knowles, wearing. Definitely inappropriate for a prom.

[GlitchWizard]

I can't see it :(

I think that is the point. :crazy:

[absinthe]

Ok, saw it. Fugly as hell. She must have gotten a discount on puke colored fabric.

[jubie]

The dress just screams "Look at me" It's all about getting attention and looks like this girl wanted a whole lot of attention... the belle of the ball in a twisted kind of way. Sad really.

When I was finishing highschool it was more about who got to have their dresses made rather than have to buy off the rack, taxi or limo, and who all was going to Hawaii. (My Grandma splurged for Hawaii for good grades, I worked my but off to help pay for the Rolls and my best friend helped make one of my dresses so I was sort of right in the middle:))

Would love to hear more grad/prom stories:woohoo:



Jubie

[browneyes]

Now, where would her date pin her corsage? :D

I think it is very "trashy" looking....to quote my Mom.

[Salem]

But again the issue is how the school enforces the dress code after school hours.

I think the issue is parents not paying attention. The dress was inappropriate for a high school prom and its sad that her parents did let her know that.

She did look cute, but she should save the dress for a Carribbean cruise or a trip to Hawaii.

Salem

I did mean to say - that I understand what you are saying about the dress code and that it needs to be enforced consistently across the board and I do agree with that :)

[absinthe]

It's just sad. The prom is a rare oppoortunity to dress like a princess. Girls will have plenty of other opportunities in life to dress like a whore.

[MrsMush99]

I CANNOT believe her PARENTS let her out in that! For Goodness sakes!! What in the world is wrong with parents today???

[Floh]

I think she looked truly terrible. should have some finishing school to teach her what the word 'elegant' means. :rolleyes:

[Lurker]

I think she looked and acted trashy. She looked like a $5 whore.

[Floh]

I think she looked and acted trashy. She looked like a $5 whore.

Yep. and it's possibly the style she admires.

she'll be knocked up within the year.

all the above is in my opinion alone.

I agree

[crash676]

Well let's see this girl made her dress herself..Wow she definitely has a future in design...if she was designing stripper dresses..this reminds me of those dresses the girls wear on shows like Rock of Love and Flavor of Love..well except for the nip slip cause truly who can really pull of a nip slip.. :rolleyes:

[golfmom]

I think she looked and acted trashy. She looked like a $5 whore.

Well, she might have made it past the chaperon if she had at the very least remembered to put some underwear on. :eek:

It makes me so mad that girls willingly choose to dress like this!!!

[bakerprune64]

One of my coworkers saw the picture and said...."Is that a dude?" I almost spit coffee on the keyboard again. lol. She really isn't a very attractive girl.

Her friend's dress is horrible too, but at least it covers her reproductive organs.

Oh I am intrigued but I can't get the link to work for me. I'm going to try to find something on the net.

Found another link here with pictures in case somebody else can't get the first link to work.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/12/see-the-dress-that-got-a_n_101311.html

That isn't a dress and there is no way my daughter would walk out of the house in that let alone to the prom. The beach? Sure.

[PSUfan]

It looks like something you would wear to pool party. It would be very appropriate for a pool party. Indoors at prom... not so much. What a skank!

[pixies]

One of my coworkers saw the picture and said...."Is that a dude?" I almost spit coffee on the keyboard again. lol. She really isn't a very attractive girl.


You know "it" is female because no self respecting drag queen would be caught dead in that outfit!!

Now, where would her date pin her corsage? :D

I think it is very "trashy" looking....to quote my Mom. Oh, she did have a date. Hmmm...I guess he was a bit ticked off since he sprang for an actual outfit for himself! I wonder if he dumped her and went back to the prom?!

I'd say it's a little late to be worrying about what she's up to outside the house on that one.

[Salem]

I know Mother's Day is over, but I just want to point out how loved so many of us are as evidenced by "my mom would have never let me out of the house in that." I can say that I take great pride in knowing that my mom would have locked me up before she let me out. Its a good thing to have a little self-respect.

I hate to say it but in the above video, the gal who wasn't allowed into her prom looks like a hooker escorted by her pimp.

I thought the girl was pretty and has a cute figure. I disagree with some though since I don't believe that any teenage girl is a slut or a skank even though they may do some outrageous things.

[philamena]

I don't think she is a slut. However I think she looks slutty in that dress.

I've raised 2 daughters and have helped raise one of my nieces. They may have tried to push the limit with certain attire but they darn sure knew what was appropriate and inappopriate for different occasions. ;)

[GlitchWizard]

Now, where would her date pin her corsage? :D

I'm thinking right through the left nipple... it will help keep the dress on.

[dimples37398]

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

This is the funniest thread in a while..

I definately without a doubt think that the dress is innappropriate for any occasion(besides the beach) for a girl this age.

I also don't think it helped, with her tattoo showing and her saying they said she didn't have any underwear on...I don't even want to know how they came to that conclusion.

I also agree she probably made a big huge scene, and got loud and ignorant. I stand by the schools decision of not letting her in dressed like that. I also don't think the school should be criticised for someone calling the police on her. Who knows who called the cops, (could be a bystander or parent standing by) also she could have easily went home and put a sweater or tank top even on, and wrapped the thing she is dragging behind her around her waist.

There were loads of things she could have done to avoid the situation and be able to attend her prom. she chose to make a hue and cry to a telly station. this ain't gonna be no full 15 minutes of fame, darling. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

[Mygirlsadie]

Tacky Tacky Tacky! What a cute girl unfortunately that dress doesn't say much about her character. Parents need to teach their daughters to respect themselves or nobody else will..that's all i'm sayin!

[Floh]

Maybe she will.

i think they wouldn't have accepted her at the prom in a bikini, though. :confused:

[RainbowsAndGumdrops]

I have to say that i am probably about as conservative as they come. There is no way my girls would be allowed to wear that.

Still, I do have to give her credit for designing the dress. The modern runways would applaud the style and finish.

Also, I think that without the train, I wouldn't even bat my eyes if I saw her wearing that at the beach with a bikini under it. I would then think she found a cute bikini cover.

I think that my above comments are irrelevant to teh situation. This is not prom attire. It sounds like she broke school rules and didn't like being told that she couldn't attend prom in that dress. I think that was the right call. I give her 5 minutes of dancing before she experiences a "wardrobe malfunction". I agree that there had to be more to the story before she was arrested. I'd imagine she had quite an attitude that lead to problems.

Aparently this girl. That's what we should call her dress. A swimsuit with a train. Pretty "fancy" if you ask me. :doh:

I don't think she got cuffed for designing or wearing a dress. I think she got cuffed because when she was told to leave she made some sort of scene.

[Amraann]

Well, more the point I was hinting at was, it was a tiny podunk town, in 1991, and I had to sign a contract agreeing to go by the dress code and follow the provisos they put on who could escort me to the Prom also. I'm surprised to hear some schools *don't* do this now, since my school did back then, and it's often about ten years behind on some things. (Example: We could sing hymns as part of our school program when I was in High School choir.)

Podunk = As of the census of 2000, there were 2,975 people, 1,252 households, and 785 families in the city.


I do remember restrictions on who could escort you during one school prom.
We eliminated that issue by boycotting the school prom. Our parents all pitched in and rented the Banquet Hall at the country club and hired a caterer and a DJ and bought decorations. Some of the teachers even came and chaperoned.

Well then, if this is her Junior prom, I've got the perfect dress (http://www.kbpc.net/ghetto/ghetto_prom_dress.jpg) for the Senior prom.

I have to say that i am probably about as conservative as they come. There is no way my girls would be allowed to wear that.

Still, I do have to give her credit for designing the dress. The modern runways would applaud the style and finish.

Also, I think that without the train, I wouldn't even bat my eyes if I saw her wearing that at the beach with a bikini under it. I would then think she found a cute bikini cover.

I think that my above comments are irrelevant to teh situation. This is not prom attire. It sounds like she broke school rules and didn't like being told that she couldn't attend prom in that dress. I think that was the right call. I give her 5 minutes of dancing before she experiences a "wardrobe malfunction". I agree that there had to be more to the story before she was arrested. I'd imagine she had quite an attitude that lead to problems.

OMG she had one already in that one picture!!

Geez. I showed my daughter to see what she thought about it. She said " Mom that's gross, the dress is ugly, and it looks like a hootchie mama dress." :eek::eek:

My daughter looked at the picture as well, her comment was "mommy...is that her BOOB!@!!" Now if my 14 YO can see the trashiness in that, I know I've done my job well:)
