We put together this 2014 Prom Shopping Guide to help take you through our boutique’s offerings and policies. This is a big decision and we want you to be fully informed and prepared. Feel free to message us with any questions and we’ll update this blog accordingly.
- All of our new 2014 Prom dresses feature complimentary alterations.
- Our complimentary alterations are not included in the purchase price. It is an amenity we provide in addition to your purchase. You are under no obligation to take advantage of this amenity. If you do choose to take advantage of this amenity, you agree to any limitations and restrictions. We guarantee the quality of our work, but to accommodate all of our clientele in a timely manner and at a high level of quality, there are guidelines.
- Whether you spend $300, $700, or any amount in between, your perfect dress deserves the perfect fit. This is an amenity no other boutique will offer. Keep in mind, that our prices are usually equal or less than elsewhere, including online.
- Our dresses often feature extensive bead work and other fine details. Altering these gowns requires skilled handwork from an experienced seamstress. We have in-house seamstresses with decades of experience in our boutique. They will give your perfect dress the perfect fit free of charge.
- Our complimentary alterations cover what most clients require but do not cover restyling or additional materials. Turning a ball gown into a cocktail dress is a restyle. Adding a corset back or cups requires additional material.
- If you do require any of these services, our seamstresses can provide them at a cost far below market rate. For example, we charge $15 to add cups and that price includes the cups. Most will charge $50. Adding a corset back is usually $40-60. Most will charge over $100. Again, this is done in-house by our staff. Most boutiques will send you elsewhere or bring in an outside seamstress. We guarantee our work, many will not.
- Fittings are available Monday through Friday. They may be available on Saturdays for a $20 fee. Our seamstresses generally do not work weekends but may come in on their own time to assist you. We apologize for any inconvenience, but please keep in mind few boutiques offer in-house alterations. Even fewer offer them 5 days a week. No other will offer them for free.
- For more in-depth information check out "Our Complimentary Alterations" blog post.
- We offer a very generous layaway plan.
- There are no credit checks, hidden fees, or unreasonable deadlines. We only ask 30% down and a minimum payment of $50 a month until paid. If you’re special ordering, we ask 50% down and a minimum payment of $50 a month until paid. Your dress must be paid in full before your first fitting and before your complimentary, free alterations begin. You have 3 business days to change your mind. After the grace period, all payments made are non-refundable.
- For more in-depth information check out "Our Very Generous Layaway Plan" blog post.
- We’ll feature over 15 different designers this year and receive almost 1,000 different dresses over the course of the season.
- No other boutique in Oklahoma City will feature:, Precious Formals, Jovani, Party Time Formals, Terani Couture, Showtime Collection, Blush Prom, Sean Collection, Riva Designs, Paparazzi by Mori Lee, Flirt by Maggie Sottero, Sticks & Stones by Mori Lee, Mystique Prom, Alyce Paris, & Tony Bowls.
- Keep in mind these dresses do not arrive at the same time. They will arrive over the course of a few months. We will also be re-ordering and possibly adding designers as the season goes along.
- While we stock sizes 0-20+, we don't have every dress in every size in stock. We may have the dress you love but it may not be in your size. We can alter the dress but you may need to special order your size. If so, you'll need to special order soon to guarantee delivery.
- We have a one-of-a-kind selection. We won't order a dress in a variety of sizes. Most dresses we will order one in one size. We may reorder the dress and we can special order you another, but once a dress is sold it's gone. If you see a dress you like, don't wait. It may not be available and it may take too long to reorder.
- Our dresses are priced $300-$700. We make a great effort to buy the best dresses at the best prices for our customers.
- We register every prom dress we sell and we will not sell the same dress to the same school, not even in a different color.
- We can’t guarantee it won’t be purchased elsewhere, but it won’t be from us. Your perfect dress belongs on you and no one else.
- Members of the US Armed Forces and their families receive a 10% discount.
- Please notify your sales consultant and be able to present a military ID.
- We’re giving away $2000 in Pomp & Pageantry Gift Cards for the best Prom Photos.
- Take your best prom photo in our dress and submit it to our Facebook page for a chance to win a top prize of $500 in Pomp & Pageantry Gift Cards.
- We welcome comparison shoppers and encourage photos. Most boutiques will only allow photographs after purchase or not at all. We firmly believe we are your best choice for one of the biggest nights of your life. We’ve been a part of countless occasions for over 25 years and we want to be a part of yours.Beginning January 12th, we will be open Sundays from 1pm-5pm.
