"Your dress. Nobody else's at your school!"
Getting to us from Hoddesdon and Broxbourne
A little over twenty-four miles, about forty minutes by car. The usual route is the A1000 and the A1001, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.
Schools we work with in Hoddesdon and Broxbourne
If she is at one of these schools in Hoddesdon and Broxbourne, we would be delighted to see her:
- Robert Barclay Academy
- The Broxbourne School
- The John Warner 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 Hoddesdon and Broxbourne 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 — dresses you will not see on the high street, and never sold twice into the same school.
Questions we are asked by Hoddesdon and Broxbourne families
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.
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?
A little over twenty-four miles, about forty minutes by car. The usual route is the A1000 and the A1001, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.
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.
