You Want Prom Drama? Prom Headquarters Has It—and So Much More
Honestly, I thought prom shopping was going to be this long, stressful process. Endless fittings, weird lighting, salespeople trying to “yes girl” me into every dress. I was ready to be exhausted by store #3. But then we hit Prom Headquarters in Greenville—and everything changed.
1. Size Isn’t a Problem Here
I’m curvy, and that can be a challenge at some boutiques. At Prom HQ, I didn’t even have to ask—they had options ready in my size. I tried on one of Sherri Hill’s sparkling fit-and-flare prom gowns in a deep emerald, and it fit like it was made for me. They carry extended sizes across brands, not just “one rack in the back,” which made me feel seen. And if your size isn’t on the floor? They’ll order it for you. No judgment, no fuss.
2. Options from Classic to Couture
They’ve got the glam stuff, no doubt—feathers, corsets, high slits—but also simple, elegant gowns that still feel special. I tried one from Portia and Scarlett’s sleek satin prom collection that made me feel like I belonged on a red carpet. The best part? The prices aren’t outrageous. You can find stunning gowns here for $400–$700, which sounds like a lot until you compare it to what Charlotte or Atlanta boutiques are charging for the same brands.
3. Stylists Who Know When to Step Back
I’ve been in shops where I couldn’t breathe without someone adjusting my straps or handing me something I didn’t ask for. Prom Headquarters was different. They gave me a few minutes to look around and didn’t push anything. When I had questions, they were helpful and honest—especially about tailoring. No fake compliments, just real support.
They also gave me space to bring in my mom, sister, and best friend, and never made it weird. I’ve heard horror stories about stores that limit how many people you can bring. Not here.
4. Accessories in Reach
Right near the front, they had a full setup: heels, clutches, earrings, everything. I picked out a rhinestone-studded silver bag that perfectly matched the waist detail on my dress. They even had stick-on bust cups, garment bags, and backup zippers. Little things, but they add up when you’re trying to pull together a full look in one trip.
5. Stress-Free Checkout
They accept layaway (huge bonus), and the whole checkout process was smooth. I didn’t feel like I was being upsold or tricked into extras. A staff member walked me through garment care, pick-up timing, and even how to store it until prom. I heard another girl ask about emergency shipping, and apparently they’ve helped clients in a rush before—especially for last-minute school date switches.
6. It’s a Headquarters for a Reason
The name isn’t just cute—it fits. This place runs like a prom command center. Everyone knows what they’re doing, and they’re ready to help without turning it into a production. It’s prom shopping, but without the drama. You still get the sparkle, the photos, the moment—but you also walk out feeling confident, not confused.
If you’re in the Upstate and looking for a dress that makes you feel like the version of yourself you actually like? Prom Headquarters is your move. It’s bold, it’s organized, and it just gets it.
