Your Prom Journey Starts Now

Your Prom Journey Starts Now

BOOK YOUR APPOINTMENT

Don’t leave it too late! New prom collections usually begin arriving from September, so booking early gives you the best choice of styles, colours and sizes — and helps you secure your favourite before someone else from your school does.

EXPLORE YOUR STYLE

Come with ideas, but keep an open mind. The dress you fall in love with may be completely different from the one you imagined. Try different shapes, colours and finishes and let the team support you towards finding your perfect dress.

Once you’ve found the one, we’ll record your school for our Prom Promise and, where needed, take your measurements so we can order the closest suitable size from the designer. Studio 18 will not sell the same dress design — even in another colour — to another pupil from your school.

CHOOSE YOUR DRESS

SECURE IT

Ordered dresses are secured with a 50% deposit, with the remaining balance able to be spread over up to two further instalments. If you choose an in-stock dress to take away, it is paid for in full.

We’ll let you know when your dress is here and invite you back to try it on. In the meantime you need to consider your footwear so you have your shoes ready too! This is where we check how everything fits and whether any adjustments would help give you that final perfect look.

YOUR DRESS ARRIVES

If alterations are needed, they can be handled here at Studio 18 by our in-house seamstresses. We’ll discuss what is required with you and agree any costs before the work begins.

THE PERFECT FIT

Once everything is just right and the balance is complete, your dress is yours to take home. Store it carefully, resist showing everybody, and start getting excited.

TAKE YOUR DRESS HOME

Once your alterations are complete, you’ll come back for your final fitting. Bring the shoes and underwear or shapewear you intend to wear on prom night so we can see the complete look and check the length properly.

FINAL TRY-ON

The dress is sorted. Now all that’s left is to enjoy it. Feel confident, feel beautiful and have the best night.
