Sparkly Gowns — Local services in Portland

I had a wonderful experience shopping for my sister's prom dress here. Fabiola is incredibly welcoming and is the perfect hype woman for a teen girl trying on dresses. She let us take our time exploring the dress options without looking over our shoulders, then pulled additional options she thought we'd like based on our selections. She was very gentle in helping my sister try on the dresses and seemed genuinely excited by my sister's reactions.

The dress selection is AMAZING. They have everything from vintage style to ball gowns to red-carpet ready. This is definitely the place to go in Portland if you want head-turning, wow factor dresses.

I called them to make sure they were legit, the texted me a pic of her dress and the correct size, and shipped it to us in 2 days! Final price - $171 with no Oregon state tax and free shipping! I know our options are quite limited in the Bay Area, but check out this store and see if they can help you. We will definitely use...

Fabiola is a cherished sponsor of our program. More than that, she is a friend and an incredibly positive business partner. Sparkly gowns has an extensive inventory of dresses in every color and size imaginable. Yes, you could buy a gown online and often pay less, but why not support this small business in Portland?

Miss Oregon wore several Sparkly Gowns at Miss America, and we loved supporting our local pageant gown supplier. Do yourself a favor, and make an appointment to see Fabiola for your...
