Prom Dress Shopping in Cleveland

It's prom time and I have put together a simple plan to easily guide you through prom dress shopping in Cleveland.

1. Dress Barn

549 S Chillocothe Rd #300

Aurora OH

330-995-0282

http://www.dressbarn.com/

The name might sound a little un-classy but it's actually a great place. If you over look the name you could be pleasantly surprised to find that there are a lot of dresses to choose from.

2. Dillards (at the Eastgate Mall)

4601 Eastgate Blvd.
Cincinnati OH, 45245

http://www.shopeastgate-mall.com/shop/eastgate.nsf/index

513.752.2290 / facsimile # 513.752.2499

Dillard's has a ton of dresses that you can wear to prom! These dresses can be worn after prom too! They are multi-functional. They are classy enough to wear on a cruise ship, graduation party and dinner.

3. Macy's (Great Lakes Mall)

Great Lakes Mall
7850 Mentor Avenue
Mentor, OH 44060
440 255-6900

This mall is great! It has everything you need in one place. The Macy's here has such a great amount of clothing with a variety of shoes and jewelry available. The mall has a place to get your hair, nails and last minute things that you need to get before prom night.

4. Cache (Southpark Center Mall)

500 Southpark Ctr
Cleveland, OH 44136
(440) 238-9000

Cache is my favorite store to find dresses. I went there and got my prom dress and I loved it! They have so many varieties of dresses and they also write down in a book the names of the girls that got the dress and what school they go to so that other girls don't wear the same dress to prom. This is my favorite place to go!

5. Chicos (Southpark Center Mall)

500 Southpark Ctr
Cleveland, OH 44136

440-878-0063

http://westfield.com/southpark/ourstores/details/chicos-30751.html

Chicos is a great store and if you look carefully you can find a great dress that no one will be able to find. It just takes time to find a jewel.

Reminders:

Dresses look differently on the rack than they do on a body so try every dress! I will also provide a link that will give a list of places that do alterations in your area. I have also provided a list of nail and hair salons that were found in the Yellowpages (yellowpages.com).

A. Alterations

Try everything on, plan ahead, stay organized and don't worry because prom is worth the wait. Prom was a lot of fun for me and I especially loved the part where I tried on dresses and got free samples! Have fun ladies.
