My niece is on the homecoming court, and she is looking to come to Dallas/Frisco/Plano area to look for a dress. Can anybody tell me some stores that we should go to. Not looking for anything really, really expensive, she is having to buy 2 dresses. Any help would be great!

Thanks!

What can I do next?

I was at Upscale Resale on Main street in Allen and I saw a bunch of dresses there. I don't know if that would be a consideration, but many times a teen might buy into used items if they know that this would leave money for other things.

I don't know if you would consider a used dress, but I have my old dress and it is beautiful. All black with a halter style neck and diamonds down the back. It has a lowcut v-shaped front, which does show some cleavage, but it has breast pad inserts for extra support. It is a size 8, but it has been altered, so the size is not guaranteed. If you would be interested, I will send you pics of it. Just to be clear, it is a simple black gown and perfect for any occasion:)

You should go to Terry Costa at Preston and 635. They are in a strip center on the southwest corner (where the Chili's is)...good luck!

Oooo how exciting! This can be tricky because you want them to feel and look great in their dress, but still look age appropriate for a reasonable price.

Windsor at Grapevine Mills Mall is definately worth a stop. They have great dresses (in my opinion) for lots of different price ranges, and the dresses are generally well made (lined, reliable zippers). There's also one at the Galleria, but I don't think it has as wide of a selection. Perhaps it gets picked over more often?

Check out the website. She can sort by style or price to see if what they have matches her tastes:

As for "expensive looking"/trendy shoes at very affordable prices, I highly recommend Wink. I've only been to the one at Vista Ridge Mall, but they also have one at Collin Creek. We've found several great pairs there:

Good luck!

Hi Kathryn,

My daughter (17) and I have found great dresses at the Allen Outlet mall BCBG Final Cut store and the BCBG regular outlet store too. We have also found that "perfect" dress at Jessica McClintock in the Stonebriar Mall! Happy shopping!

Grapevine Mills mall has a ton of dress shops in it. Some expensive, others are not.

There are a couple of places (I don't recall the name) at Willow Bend Mall. I think it is Poise n Ivy.

when my daughter was still in school, we wre able to find really nice "party" dresses for homecoming & proms
for under 30.00 which was great since I knew it was a one time wear for her, regardless of what she claimed (lol). I finally donated them and hope some other young lady was able to use them for her special occassion
