Need Help Choosing or Ready to Try On?
Please speak with your teacher before selecting a dress. They'll help you choose styles, colors, and sizing that best complement your dancing and competition goals.
Caring for Our Dresses
Each gown is professionally inspected, sanitized, and spot cleaned after every rental.
Please do not attempt to clean the dress yourself.
If a dress becomes damaged during your rental, let us know as soon as possible so we can repair it for future dancers.

✓ Wash your hands before handling dresses
✓ Shower before trying on a gown to avoid transferring lotions, self-tanner, makeup, perfume, hairspray, or glitter
✓ Wear appropriate undergarments

✓ Sit carefully and be mindful of shoe heels
✓ Let the studio know immediately if damage occurs
​
PLEASE DON'T:
✗ Wear jewelry while trying on dresses
✗ Use perfume, hairspray, glitter, bronzer, or other products around the gowns
✗ Smoke while wearing or trying on a dress
✗ Alter the dress in any way
