Our tips for choosing your perfect prom dress! ❤️

Discover our tips for choosing your perfect prom dress!

Come in with an open mind!

It is important to keep an open mind when shopping for your dream prom dress, even if you have an idea of what you want before coming in.

The dresses will look completely different when tried on. We recommend keeping an open mind and trying lots of different styles and colours as you may be surprised at what you go away with. 

Do not worry about what the size says on the label!

Please do not worry about what the size says on the label.

Prom dresses are completely different to your every day high street clothing. You may find you are trying on different sizes to what you would normally wear but please do note panic, this is completely normal. 

Show us your inspo pics!

When coming into the store, you may have a slight idea of what you are looking for. Showing us your inspo pics will help us point you into the right direction and we can pull out dresses that are of a similar style.

Please don't worry if you have no idea as to what you are looking for. We are here to help as little or as much as you need!

Try not to pre - choose your prom dress colour.

When it comes to friendship groups, it is very easy to assign a colour for each friend so that you are all in different colours. However, you may find that once you start trying dresses on in the colour you have chosen, you may not like this. This can be very distressing and can mean that you do not enjoy your prom experience. It doesn't matter if you are wearing the same colour as someone else, remember, there are only so many colours in the rainbow! 

Ask for help

Make-up and tan 

We would really appreciate it if you could wear no or as little makeup and fake tan as possible.

This is to avoid damaging the dresses when you are trying them on!

It's important to remember that the dresses we have in the store are the ones that we sell, so it's vital the dresses are well looked after.

And finally...

When it comes to choosing your dream prom dress, it is so important that feel comfortable and confident. Your opinion is the most important, so you do YOU!

Happy shopping!

Love, The Dress Studio Team
