Why Should I Order a Prom Dress Now?

It's the same every year, Prom Dresses come out and everyone want to see.  Every year they are sexier, galmorous and more elegant than the last.  The oohs and ahhs start up, and everyone looks and looks until they find the perfect prom dress.  Then the disappointment starts, they waited too long to get the prom dress of their dreams, and it is not available.  We see it way too often.

It seems this year the missing prom dress dilemma is even worse.  It's only the end of February, and shipping on special order prom dresses are pushed back to mid to late May or even June, too late for many Prom Girls who have their hearts set on that special Prom Dress.  We at Christina Gowns have never seen shipping dates so late this early in the Prom Season.

What's the solution to this Designer Prom Dress heartbreak?  Shop now, decide now, and get it now.  The stock levels are not going to get any better, so if you love it, get it before it is gone.  Before you rush out and order from a web site that says they can get it when everyone else says they can't, make sure you follow these steps to make sure you are getting the Prom Dress you expect.

1.  Call them, if they don't answer the phone, then there is no one there.  This means if there is no one there now, there probably won't be anyone there if you have a problem with the dress.

2.  Do they offer your designer dress in many colors, offer custom measurements, and the price is too good to  be true?  Then you have probably stumbled upon a "knock off" dress site.  These unethical sites use the designer's copyrighted images to sell you their version of the designer dress.  The quality is poor, the cut is different, and they do not make prom dresses to the same standards the Dress Designers require.  If you are OK with that, then fine.  If your dress doesn't arrive, who will you call?

3.  Make sure you are dealing with an authorized retailer for the dress designer you want.  This can be done easily by checking the designer website, or calling the designer if a phone number is available.

4.  Again, call, call, call, call.  One phone call to the seller can make a huge difference in your satisfaction with the dress and the happiness of your Prom Queen.  Ask questions, take measurements and get all the information you can to ensure you are dealing with a reputable company who knows Prom Dresses and the girls who love them.  We can't stress it enough, one phone call can make or break a Prom.  We at Christina Gowns are always happy to answer questions and offer suggestions and alternatives.  It's what a great seller does, happily.

The Prom Dress shortage is not going to get better this year, but there are alternatives.  The seller you contact may not  be able to get her first choice, but they can and should make recommendations on what might be similar to the style, color, size and availability your Prom Girl desires in her prom dress.  If they won't, move on.  There are lots of legitimate Dress sellers, and tons of beautiful Prom Dresses to choose from.  Make your decision wisely, but don't wait too long to get that Perfect Prom Dress for 2012.

Christina Gowns is Changing Everything!

First, we at Christina Gowns want to thank our customers for their patience and understanding during our transition to a new website administration system.  Our previous system, hosted by a local company here in Delaware, quickly became a disaster.  It became evident that this company was unable to correct the major issues it had with hosting and e-commerce, so we had to switch quickly in order to maintain our system for our customers during the 2012 prom dress season.  Not an easy task!

Our staff has been working day and night to move all 5000+ dresses for Prom, Pageant, Homecoming, Quinceanera and Mother of the Bride to our new system.  Each dress had to be looked at and tweaked, plus we were able to re-structure the site for better search capability.  While this has been going on, our main concern is to make the site accessible and fun for our customers.  Customer Service is always our top priority, and we are happy this new system will let us expand our service to you.

Please watch in the coming weeks as we add a new look to our site, we add more news on top selling dresses, dress designers, dress availability and pageant news and schedules.

We at Christina Gowns would also love to hear your suggestions and find out what you would like to see and be kept up to date on.  Our site is for you, and your feedback is so important to us.  We consider every comment as a chance to make changes for the better.  Thank You to all our wonderful customers!
