LET OP: momenteel is het erg druk op onze gala afdeling en is het verstandig om een afspraak in te plannen! Zonder afspraak kan het zijn dat we geen plek hebben.
A department full of pearls...
You've probably seen images of celebrities on the red carpet. Each and every one of them shone in beautiful creations. Think of a lush evening dress studded with sequins, dresses with refined feathers, or a tightly fitted satin dress where the simplicity emphasizes the true beauty.
With us you don't have to worry about showing off (well, very occasionally). A rich variety of dresses awaits in our gala department, and it can even be a challenge to make a choice.
Of course we will assist you to make your choice easier. We offer you all the help you need to find the dress for the special occasion together.

* NB:Our gala department is only open for customers who are seriously looking for a gala dress. If you just want to orientate yourself, you can do this by viewing all the dresses on our website at your leisure. At quiet times we can sometimes let you take a look, but this depends on when you come and whether there are no customers who are seriously looking for an outfit at that moment and need our help.

Mag ik als minderjarige een jurk passen of kopen?
Ben jij nog minderjarig (jongers als 18 jaar)? Dan kun je helaas geen (gala)jurken bij ons passen of kopen. Wij willen graag iedereen van de beste service & advies voorzien en omdat we veel tijd besteden aan het helpen van al onze gewaardeerde klanten zul je dus met een voogd moeten komen om je jurk te passen en eventueel te kopen. Wij begrijpen dat dit wellicht teleurstellend is, echter willen wij er zorg voor dragen dat iedereen zo goed als mogelijk geholpen kan worden door onze stylisten en weten we uit ervaring dat ouders/je voogd er graag bij willen/wilt zijn.
How big is your gala department?
Our gala department (opening early October 2022) is 200m2 and is full of the most breathtaking evening dresses. From maxi dresses to cocktails, from sequins to feathers, we have it!
How expensive are your gala/evening dresses?
We have prom dresses in different price ranges. From an average of €100 to €700. The price mainly concerns the materials such as sequins, feathers, fabric, quantity of fabric, finish, and so on. The exclusivity of some items also counts.
Do you also rent out gala/evening dresses?
At Dresses Boutique we do not offer a rental service for gala dresses. However, we have a beautiful collection of prom dresses for sale from around €100, which you can view and try on in our store. It is good to keep in mind that renting a gala dress can quickly cost upwards of € 100 and any damage will be at your own expense.
Our expert staff is ready to help you find the perfect dress for your special occasion. If you have any questions about our collection or if we can assist you in any other way, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to welcoming you to our store!
Do you also sell lingerie?
We do not sell lingerie. For example, because some gala dresses have an open back, we sell very nice products from MAGIC Bodyfashion so that you can wear the dress without a bra and still have the support. Some dresses already have cups.
Can I bring my whole family to the boutique?
We advise you not to come with too many people. The more opinions, the more difficult it can be to arrive at a personal choice with which you feel completely comfortable. Our department is designed in such a way that it offers an intimate setting, where it is also important that other customers can try on and shop comfortably.
Do you have all dresses in all sizes?
We try to buy as many different dresses as possible. Because not every dress model is suitable for every size, it depends on the model which size or sizes we have. Sometimes it is possible to order a missing size.
Is it worth coming from far away?
We can answer a resounding "YES" to that question. We receive customers every day from all over the Netherlands, Belgium and the border areas of Germany. We have a lot of choice and most customers easily travel an average of 1.5 to 2 hours.
Can I reserve items?
Unfortunately we cannot reserve anything for you. Given the crowds and limited stock per dress, we want to keep it as fair as possible for everyone to find the dress.
Do you have an entertainment service?
We offer you the opportunity to have your dress altered to your liking by our dressmaker by appointment . The seamstress will pin your dress to your liking and the dress will be ready a week later.
We also work with a cutter in our city where you can walk in at any time and where the dress will be pinned for you according to your wishes.
Both options are entirely at your own expense, regardless of the amount you spend with us.
Do you pay any entertainment costs?
We do not reimburse alteration costs for a dress if it needs to be custom made. Any damage to a dress will of course be at our expense.
Help, my favorite dress is sold out!
Every week we receive additions of new dresses and dresses that are already in the collection. Since we have a lot of choice, you don't have to worry about not finding a dress, after all, most ladies go out with a completely different dress than the one they had in mind! Crazy, huh? But for some reason we notice that many ladies don't really know what suits them and so they often come to the conclusion that something they thought would "definitely not" turn out to be the case after all!
Can I still exchange my purchase?
Are you not completely sure about your purchase? You can exchange your purchase for another item within 14 days.
Since you have plenty of time to try it on at your leisure and we provide you with advice from A to Z, there are no refunds or vouchers.
Do you also have a sale?
No, we are not discounting the gala/evening dress collections because they do not work with seasons as in regular casual fashion.
Is your gala department wheelchair accessible?
Our gala department is on the first floor and unfortunately there is no elevator. This department is therefore not wheelchair accessible.
Do you sponsor dresses?
We are asked this question almost every week and partly due to the number of requests, we refrain from sponsoring gala dresses for, for example, beauty pageants, singers, presenters, etc.
Is there a time limit for the fitting?
During the busy gala periods (January to June) you have a maximum of 1.5 hours to try on gala dresses so that others also have a chance to find their dream dress.
Do you sell dresses multiple times per event?
At each event we carefully keep track of which gala dresses were sold in which color. We only offer one dress per event for each model and color.
To ensure that our offer remains accessible to people with a more limited budget, we unfortunately cannot include gala dresses under € 150 in our registration. These specific dresses must remain available to everyone.
When should I start looking for my prom dress?
Particularly for school proms, we often see that a start is made from the end of January/beginning of February to come and buy the most beautiful dress. Most ladies usually have their dress at home 2/3 months before the gala.
