Where on earth would I get a prom dress for my dd that's not Â£100 and not some horrific polyester creation?!

Heeeeelllllppppppp

TK Maxx? House of Fraser?

My Dd3 got a £30 dress from Boohoo or MissGuided (prob polyester though)

Ultra-awkward dd2 managed to find a v plain and simple black one in Oasis for hers. It cost about £35 in the sale and was perfect for her (may well have been polyester but was v nice).

Is there an outlet village near you? York has a good coast outlet shop in it and the swishy frocks are about £50?

We got my DD's from Lindy Bop it was under £30. And the Coast outlet shop isn't at McArthur Glen York any more as that was 1st place we went to look.

What sort of style?

Quiz was a popular choice when my dd had her prom. Not a natural fibre in sight though I'm afraid!

If she's happy to wear second hand there are loads for sale on buy and sell sites on Facebook etc.... I've seen some which are lovely.

Suspect I'm being a bit snobby re the polyester!! eBay good idea.

DD tried on some in debehams that were about £50, but ended up ordering online.
