Prom Dresses Oxford

Getting to us from Oxford

About fifty-five miles, about an hour and twenty minutes by car. The usual route is the A40, the M40, the M25 and the A41, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.

Schools we work with in Oxford

Secondary schools in Oxford we would love to welcome girls from:

• Cheney School
• Cherwell College Oxford
• Greyfriars Catholic School
• Headington School Oxford
• Magdalen College School
• Matthew Arnold School
• Oxford High School GDST
• Oxford Montessori Schools
• Oxford Spires Academy
• St Edward's School
• The Cherwell School
• The Oxford Academy
• The Swan School
• Wheatley Park School
• Wychwood 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 Oxford. 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 — dresses you will not see on the high street, and never sold twice into the same school.

Questions we are asked by Oxford families

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.

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.

Is it worth coming from Oxford?

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.

How long is the drive?

About fifty-five miles, about an hour and twenty minutes by car. The usual route is the A40, the M40, the M25 and the A41, then the A414 into Hemel Hempstead.
