"Your dress. Nobody else's at your school!"
Getting to us from Harpenden
Just over nine miles, about twenty minutes by car. The usual route is the A4146 into Hemel Hempstead.
Schools we work with in Harpenden
Secondary schools in Harpenden we would love to welcome girls from:
- Katherine Warington School
- Roundwood Park School
- Sir John Lawes School
- St George's School
- The King's 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.
Every year we look for Prom Ambassadors — girls in Year 11 and Year 13 who love the whole business of getting ready and want to be part of ours. Applications for 2027 are open now, and we would be delighted to hear from girls in Harpenden. Apply to be a Prom Ambassador.
Doing it in one visit
Plenty of girls do the whole thing in a single visit. They arrive knowing roughly what they are looking for, try on a handful and choose on the day. 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 in the high-street chains, and never sold twice into the same school.
Questions we are asked by Harpenden families
How long is the drive?
Just over nine miles, about twenty minutes by car. The usual route is the A4146 into Hemel Hempstead.
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 come straight from school on a weekday?
Yes. Weekday appointments run into the evening on the days we are open, so an after-school fitting is easy to arrange.
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.
