PromMiss Dresses — Local services in Thornbury Township

I made an appt, drove about 2 1/2 hours and arrived. I thought this was going to be a great experience. The owner (DINA) was very unwelcoming, unprepared and rude. Normally at a dress shop you help the girls with the dress which she didn’t. I guess since my girls were curvier she had a problem or maybe it was possible we didn’t fit into her usual clientele because we were Latina. Her time was spent talking to a teen about her date the night prior. Totally inappropriate for a woman in her mid 50s to tell a child about a failed date. When one of my bridesmaids asked to use the bathroom Dina( owner) rolled her eyes like a toddler. Showed her where the bathroom was and kept checking to see if she was done.

Once we started trying on the dresses i thought she would change her attitude but she didn’t. As my bridesmaids and I are solution oriented we figured it out by ourselves.

There was one moment when her demeanor changed and she got a little nice when I said we wanted the dresses and asked about cost. I knew the cost of the dresses before I went because I did my research, so the price was no surprise. While in the store the girls and I decided we will gladly purchase the dress but not from this location because Dina (owner) was so rude. NO upstanding woman/ mother would behave that way. Dinas dresses were cheaper so just Imagine your bridesmaids/ family willing to pay more for dresses at another location just so we didn’t give our hard earned money to this business.

The teenager at the shop had more respect and manners than this woman. Dina you can learn a thing or two from her. Get off your high horse and humble yourself. At a dress shop you’re going to get all type of different ethnicities and body shapes embrace them all instead of treating people like they owe you something. At this day and age profiling people is not a good look on any flourishing business. ( teach yourself about diversity and inclusion)

Parents I had grown women with me and so we knew how to handle this behavior and still treated her respectfully although she treated us poorly we weren’t going to allow her to ruin our day. Dina handles your children, teens trying to prepare themselves for a very special day.“PROM” don’t allow her to cut them with her negative demeanor and push on her own body image issues to your girls. Protect them, spend your hard earned money where they respect...

Hands down my favorite dress store around. Actually, anywhere. Every dress in the store is hand picked with only limited amounts so you never have to worry if someone will be wearing the same dress to an event you’ll be attending. There are so many options, every color of the rainbow, for all shapes and sizes and personalities and formalness.

I have gotten black tie gowns from here that are stunning. The store works hand in hand with a seamstress that will help make anything custom to fit perfectly and to your liking.

I’ve purchased cocktail dresses/party dresses and even pant rompers from here, as well, and the icing on the cake is that the seamstress always figures out a way to attach cups so that the last thing I have to worry about is a stupid strapless bra.

Each employee is knowledgeable and helpful with the inventory, which is constantly changing, and knows what dresses to pull based off of your body shape.

I have always found what I was looking for, left a really happy customer, and would recommend this store to anyone who needs a dress for any occasion at all- or even better yet- just drive up to the storefront and be amazed by whatever dazzling dresses they have adorned in the window for all to see. Stops me dead in my tracks while taking my kids to the barber shop next door, every single time I go.

You won’t be...

First off the owner Dina, very rude & had an attitude. I drove an hour and a half to take my daughter to look at prom dresses we had an appointment when we got there the girl at the front was nice and told us to look around. When we starting picking dresses Dina wasn't helpful at all, she would just come over and say I'll take the dress. My daughter was trying on dresses she never asked to help or anything. One dress which we knew she needed a bigger size but she LOVED the dress so she wanted to see it outside the dressing room at the big mirror. Dina came over and right away said "oh no that's way too small" so uncalled for but I never heard her say anything to any of the other girls trying on dresses. Mind you my daughter is a size 2, and the dress was a 0. Not that far off from a 2. At this point I didn't even want to buy a dress from this place, but my daughter wanted to try on others. Afterwards we asked about a dress if they had it in a different color since when you come in they say all dresses come in all different colors. So Dina goes "I don't even know what dress your talking about with an attitude" so the girl at the front ended up helping us look at the colors online. Needless to say for how much the dresses are there, they should be a little more courteous to their customers...
