Prom dresses

Does anyone know of any good prom dress shops in London or Kent that sell nice reasonably priced dresses?
My daughter only has 4 weeks to find one. I've looked online but i'd prefer her to try one on to get a correct fit.

This is her special day and a day that she will always remember. I want to get her a dress of her dreams costing up to £200. I don't think Tk Maxx will have what she is looking for.0

Up to you, of course, but don't be too quick to judge - or waste money. There are some lovely dresses in there, vastly reduced from the hundreds of £'s they cost originally. At the end of the day, she's leaving school - a special time with her friends, a lovely meal, a bit of a splash on the hair-do and tranport, a sob at the end of the evening and a poshed-up version of a school disco is what it amounts to. She knows you love her. I get depressed at the extra pressure that this all adds to families, for no real quantifiable reason.Reason for edit? Can spell, can't type!0 -

I see what you mean. We are off to the High Street tomorrow so I'll pop into TK Maxx to have a look.0 -

atopdress.co.uk wow!! they have some great dresses at great prices, can anyone comment on the quality of these. The dress my daughter was looking at was going to cost around £300-£400, could get similar for £80 and delivered from these guys.
Is this another of those 'too good to be true' things?0 -

Hi. Having seen them on EBay and then visiting their site my wife bought from Atopdress. Dress was OK, well not really very good but OK. You could have worn it before it fell to bits. However it was too small so we sent it back, recorded delivery within 5 days. That was months ago. They have not refunded and not replied to emails or calls. Buyer beware. We lost £146too old to die with out an opinion:D0
