If you've seen Disney's Original movie "Prom Pact," you know the film is in no short supply of prom-spiration. While the feel-good messages of the movie — cherishing your friendships, living in the moment, and not judging a book by its cover — are presented in a refreshing and sweet way, the movie also has a lot to offer visually. Playful, bright, and fun, with a hint of camp, the entire movie is a total vibe.

The plot revolves around determined high school senior Mandy Yang during the height of prom season. She and her best friend, Ben Plunkett, consider themselves outsiders and haven't bought into the whole prom thing in the same way most of their peers have. Instead, Mandy is focused on her lifelong goal of getting into Harvard. Currently waitlisted, she's desperate to do whatever it takes to get an acceptance — including befriending and tutoring popular jock Graham Lansing. Graham's father is a Harvard-alum senator who Mandy hopes can write her a stellar letter of recommendation. However, Mandy soon begins to realize there's more to Graham than she originally thought and, perhaps, something more to life than Harvard.

From the over-the-top promposals to the final looks on the big night, we can't think of a better hype movie to get into the prom spirit. If you haven't seen it yet, it's available on Disney+ starting March 31. You can learn more about "Prom Pact" at DisneyPlusOriginals.Disney.com. Ahead, we break down the prom looks of our favorite characters and share how you can effortlessly re-create each aesthetic for yourself.

A clear homage to the '80s, Mandy's prom night look is full of personality. For a character who, in the beginning of the movie, isn't overly enthusiastic about social activities, she certainly goes all out with this fun pop princess vibe.

To channel Mandy's energy, turn to nostalgia fashion from the '80s, '90s, and early '00s. Think: over-the-top elements like feathers, sparkles, tulle, and complementary eye-catching accessories. Be ready to make a statement, as maximalism is the key here, and accessories are abundant. Mandy's full outfit consists of pink opaque tights, pink metallic heels, matching mesh gloves, and standout costume jewelry.

If you love her dress style, search for options with a full skirt and a corset bodice. Extra points for layers of tulle or ruffles and dazzling embellishments. As for hair and makeup, opt for a traditional updo with ample volume and curls. A nod to the '80s, Mandy's style sweeps to one side and she completes her look with a bright pink lip and a dusting of blue eyeshadow.

Much like his personality, Ben's prom look is unique, avant-garde, and, at least in this century, non-traditional. Rather than choosing a basic black and white tux, Ben takes a cue from England's early 1800s and decides to channel today's regencycore trend.

To achieve a similar look, shop for a printed suit jacket — even better if it incorporates a metallic motif — a ruffled button-down, a bolo tie in lieu of a traditional tie (seemingly random, but Ben totally makes it work!), and high-waisted, multi-button skinny trousers. Staying true to his theme of interesting and unexpected formalwear, Ben opts for white boots instead of conventional black dress shoes. Though whimsical, his look ends up being quite aspirational.

In the movie, Ben is a champion for staying true to oneself and he remains unapologetic for all of his charming quirks. His prom outfit perfectly plays into his self-assured attitude, which is why it works so well. A bold look like his is most effective when worn with confidence.

If you're after a more modern prom aesthetic, Latoya's vibe is a perfect one to emulate. Sleek, elevated, and looking as if she just stepped off the red carpet, the upbeat cheerleader certainly knows how to dress for the occasion while making a glamorous impact.

Re-create Latoya's look with a column dress in a satiny material featuring a thigh-high slit and a v-neck. A gown in a jewel-toned hue like her deep emerald provides an elegant and sophisticated feel. And finally, while Latoya's dress makes a statement all on its own, her sparkling accessories take it to trendsetter status. Opt for a crystal necklace as your focal point but don't be shy about incorporating other pieces. Latoya also wears a tennis bracelet, dangling crystal earrings, and embellished heels.

Latoya's beauty look includes a light smoky eye, a metallic manicure, and glossy, natural lips. Wearing her curly hair loose at her shoulders adds to her effortlessly glam ensemble. This is another look that exudes confidence and style.

He may be captain of the basketball team with a wardrobe that relies heavily on sports-related sweatshirts, but when it comes to prom, even Graham appreciates the art of dressing up. Although his outfit is arguably the most traditional of them all, Graham's prom-night suit still incorporates pops of individuality — just in a more subtle way.

If an understated vibe is more your speed, look to Graham's dark suit for inspiration. Try a monochrome blazer-and-pant set with a white, printed button-down and matching bow tie. Although his jacket is black, the fact that it's velvet gives it depth. Also adding interest: the polka dots on both his shirt and his tie. His footwear skews more classic as well, as he wears black dress shoes.

Reflective of his everyday style, Graham keeps his prom look simple and tailored, yet, in his own way, it's a bit ornate, too. His outfit goes to show that you can wear something you're comfortable in while also easily leveling up your fashion game for a special night like prom.
