1 How to Dress Right for Your Body Type Jillian Tan , 2016 single work essay
— Appears in: Voiceworks , Summer no. 106 2016-2017; (p. 67-72)

'Prom seems like something a sixteen-year-old girl should care about. American high school films show her the ins and outs of the coming-of-age ritual and she comes to understand that the dress and the date rank high on the list of priorities. The fact that she attends a very un-American all-girls convent school doesn't seem to change her perspective. She knows that the most important thing is to look beautiful in an amazing dress. She and everyone else knows that it is the night that will change their lives forever.' (Publication abstract)
