Question about Black Tie

Hello, I am going to my school's prom, and I've already picked out a tux, with black pants, black jacket, black bowtie, and white shirt. Now here is where I need some advice, the pocket square is a classic white, but I thought that was so boring. http://www.mrporter.com/product/337758, I almost wanna get this pocket square, and my date has a totally white dress, but I'm scared of clashing with the corsage (red I think) and just standing out too much. Should I get that pocket square, or just keep in classic? Thank you

Good choice on going with a white pocket square. As for the one you linked to, I personally think it is pretty hideous.
