Appointment Tips
We know how important your Prom dress is , so we tried to give as much advice as we can. Don’t hesitate to contact us for any other information you may need.
1. Please shop local. All shops have designer exclusivity, which is around a 10 mile radius. This means no other shop can stock the same dresses in this area. So bear in mind, if you go beyond 10 miles you could potentially buy the same dress as someone else at your Prom.
2. Be cautious when buying online, the dresses are not always what they seem. There are a lot of bogus sites, they take a screenshot from a genuine suppliers website and put it on theirs. The dresses are a fake copies and if they arrive, they are usually in the wrong size, colour or material. Quite often they take your money and then disappear, leaving you without a dress. A lot of the sites only have an email contact, check they have a contact number, you need to be able to speak to them. If you are looking online at new dresses showing a price less than £100 they are fake, we as shops cannot buy this type of dress wholesale for anything like this….
3. Prom dresses can take up to 16 weeks to arrive. If you are wanting a style to be ordered in a specific colour and size, then try shop before beginning of March. If you can’t get to us before March, there are other suppliers we have, that get regular selective stock, that we can order from. Please remember that the styles are sold on a first come first served basis, so the earlier you look the more chance of you getting the style you want.
It would be greatly appreciated, if you would share this advice to all your friends and parents, everyone would benefit from knowing this important information.
We at Magic Moments endeavour to make sure your dress is unique to you. We keep a register of the styles sold to each school, to ensure the same dress is not sold to anyone else at the same school, not even in a different colour.
We want you to have a memorable PROM, where you have a wonderful time, showing off your beautiful self in a beautiful gown.
