Quinceañera Dresses in Scranton, PA

Your quinceañera gown is the one everyone remembers, and it deserves to be chosen in person. Our collection runs from full ball gowns with layered tulle to slimmer, more modern silhouettes, in sizes 000 to 28 and in colors that photograph as well in the church as they do at the reception.

Come try them on. Alterations are done in house, free layaway holds your gown while you pay it down, and we can dress your damas from the same visit so the whole court coordinates. We're at 724 Cedar Avenue in Scranton with free parking in back. Call (570) 354-6149 to let us know you're coming.

Most girls arrive picturing the same thing, a full skirt with layers of tulle underneath, and there is a good reason that shape has lasted. It photographs beautifully on the church steps, it moves well during the waltz, and it holds its own in a hall full of people. If that is the image you have had in your head since you were small, you should try it first.

What surprises a lot of families is how different that gown feels once it is actually on. A full ball gown is a commitment for a long evening. Some girls love the weight of it and would not swap it for anything. Others try one on, then try a slimmer A line or a fitted mermaid, and realize they would rather dance than manage a skirt. There is no wrong answer, and you cannot work out which one you are from a photograph. That is the whole argument for coming in.

White and ivory are traditional and still the most common choice, but they are nowhere near the only one. We carry blush and pink, blue, purple and lilac, gold and champagne, red and green, and you can filter this page by color to see what we have before you drive over.

Color is the thing screens are worst at. A blush that looks warm on a phone can read almost white under church lighting, and a deep red can photograph very differently in daylight on the steps than it does under the lights at the reception. If your venue and your church are lit differently, and in this area they usually are, it is worth seeing the fabric in person and holding it near a window before you commit.

A quinceañera is rarely one dress. There is a court to think about, and matching damas to your gown afterwards from memory or from a photo is harder than it sounds. We carry damas dresses in the same place as the gowns, so the court can be matched to your choice while your gown is in front of you.

Bring whichever damas can come. Any who cannot make it that day can be measured and ordered later in the same style and color, so nobody is left out because of a schedule. If the court is large, calling (570) 354-6149 before you come means we can keep enough fitting rooms free.

Four to six months ahead is comfortable. That is enough time for a gown to be ordered and delivered and for alterations to be done without anybody rushing, and it leaves room for the ordinary complications, a growth spurt, a change of venue, a court that gains a dama.

If your date is closer than that, come in anyway. We keep hundreds of gowns in stock that can go home the same day, and because our alterations are done in house rather than sent out to a third party, a shorter runway is workable in a way it is not at a shop that has to ship your dress somewhere else and wait.

Yes, and it is easier if you do.

Sizes 000 to 28, on the floor rather than in a catalog, so the range can actually be tried on. Alterations are done in house, so a gown that fits everywhere except the hem or the bodice is not a problem.

Yes, layaway is free. A deposit holds the gown and you pay the balance down in installments before you collect it. It is the reason a lot of families are able to choose the gown they actually want on the day they find it rather than waiting and hoping it is still there.

Blush and pink, blue, purple and lilac, gold and champagne, red, green and white. You can filter the gowns on this page by color. It is worth seeing a color in person before deciding, because the way a fabric takes the light in a church is not always what a screen suggests.
