"Your dress. Nobody else's at your school!"
Getting to us from Chatham
About sixty-seven miles, about an hour and thirty-five minutes by car. The usual route is the A2, the A282, the M25 and the A1081, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.
Schools we work with in Chatham
Secondary schools in Chatham we would love to welcome girls from:
- Chatham Grammar
- Fort Pitt Grammar School
- The Victory Academy
- Walderslade School
One style per school, and it is hers. We sell each style to only one girl at each school. Once it is registered to her school, no other girl there can buy it from us, which is why coming early makes such a difference.
We are also looking for Prom Ambassadors for 2027: Year 11 and Year 13 girls who love getting ready as much as the night itself. Girls from Chatham are very welcome to apply. Apply to be a Prom Ambassador.
Doing it in one visit
Many girls choose on the day. They come with a rough idea of what they like, try a handful of styles and leave with the dress registered to their school. Where it suits, we can also look at sending the dress to you by secure courier rather than you making the journey back for it — it is worth asking your stylist about at the fitting. Alterations would then be arranged locally.
The 2027 collection
Hundreds of exclusive styles, sizes 4XS to 14W, from £199. Ball gowns, fitted and mermaid, A-line, sequin and embellished, satin and couture — styles you will not find on the high street, and never sold twice into the same school.
What Chatham families ask us
How early should we book?
As early as you can. Each style is sold to only one girl at each school, so the popular ones start closing early in the season.
Can we do everything in one trip?
Often, yes. Many girls choose on the day, and where it suits we can look at sending the dress on by secure courier — ask your stylist at the fitting. Alterations would then be arranged locally.
What if she needs the dress altering?
Alterations are booked as a separate short appointment. If the dress is sent to you by courier instead, alterations are arranged locally.
Do we need an appointment?
Yes. Appointments are free and last an hour, one-to-one with a stylist, so she has the stylist’s full attention for the whole visit.
