  • What’s the best way to care for my prom dress?
    To ensure your prom dress stays in perfect condition, it's important to follow a few simple care steps. First, always handle your dress with clean hands and avoid putting it on immediately after applying makeup or perfume to prevent stains. If your dress has delicate fabrics like silk or satin, store it in a garment bag to avoid snagging and protect it from dust. Before your event, hang your dress in a well-ventilated area to let any wrinkles fall out naturally, or use a steamer on low heat. Avoid using a traditional iron, as it can damage delicate fabrics. After prom, have your dress professionally cleaned by a dry cleaner that specializes in formal wear. This is especially important if the dress has embellishments like beads, sequins, or lace. Proper storage—either hanging it in a garment bag or laying it flat for heavier gowns—will help maintain its shape for years to come.
  • What alterations can I get for my prom dress?
    At Prom Boutique, we do not offer in-house alterations, but we understand how important it is to have a dress that fits perfectly. That’s why we have a list of trusted, professional seamstresses who specialise in formal wear and are highly experienced in working with prom dresses. They can assist with common alterations like adjusting the hem, taking in or letting out seams, shortening straps, or adding extra support where needed. When you purchase your dress, we’ll be happy to recommend one of our trusted alteration specialists to ensure your dress fits you flawlessly.
  • What style dresses do you have?
    All our dresses are evening wear and suitable for prom, black tie and special occasion events. We have a wide range of styles from fitted satins to princess ballgowns in many colours.
  • Do you offer a payment plan?
