"Your dress. Nobody else's at your school!"
Getting to us from Chelmsford
About fifty-one miles, about an hour and a quarter by car. The usual route is the A12, the M25 and the A1081, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.
Schools we work with in Chelmsford
Secondary schools in Chelmsford we would love to welcome girls from:
- Chelmer Valley High School
- Chelmsford County High School for Girls
- Chelmsford Hospital School

One style, one girl, one school. We sell each style to only one girl at each school. The moment a style is registered to her school it is closed to everyone else there — so the earlier she comes, the more she has to choose from.
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 Chelmsford 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.
Questions from families in Chelmsford
How does the deposit work?
A £99 deposit holds the dress, and the balance can be spread over interest-free instalments, completed before she collects it.
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.
How long is the drive?
About fifty-one miles, about an hour and a quarter by car. The usual route is the A12, the M25 and the A1081, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.
Is it worth coming from Chelmsford?
If she wants a style no other girl at her school can buy from us, yes. We sell each style to only one girl at each school, a promise very few shops make.
