What size should I order for a homecoming dress?<\/strong> Use your body measurements and compare them to the brand\u2019s size chart.

Or skip the guesswork: at HappyProm, custom sizing is free on every dress, so you can give us your measurements instead.<\/p> <\/div> Are homecoming dress sizes the same as regular clothing?<\/strong> No, formal dresses usually run smaller than everyday clothing, so sizing can differ significantly.<\/p> <\/div>
How do UK sizes compare to US sizes?<\/strong> UK sizes are typically 4 sizes larger than US sizes. For example, a US 6 is a UK 10.<\/p> <\/div>
Is custom sizing better than standard sizing?<\/strong> Custom sizing is ideal if your measurements don\u2019t match standard charts, but it usually cannot be returned.<\/p> <\/div>
Can a dress be altered if it doesn\u2019t fit?<\/strong> Yes, dresses that are slightly too big can usually be altered. Dresses that are too small are much harder to fix.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n
