Prom is one of the most exciting nights of the school year and for many, it’s a celebration that’s been looked forward to for months.
At Occasions by Design, we understand just how important it is for each student to feel truly confident, comfortable and unique on that night. That’s why we follow a clear and supportive policy: we only sell one prom dress design per school.
Whether you’re searching for prom dress shops near me or already have a particular style in mind, here’s everything you need to know about how this policy works, why it matters, and how it ensures every student can shine in their own way.
The Importance of a One Dress Per School Policy
At school prom, the last thing anyone wants is to walk into the venue and spot someone wearing the exact same dress, even in a different colour. Our one-dress-per-school policy guarantees that this won’t happen when you buy your prom dress from Occasions by Design.
When a dress is selected, we register it under your school name. That same design will then be marked off for your school, meaning it won’t be available to any other student attending from our boutique regardless of colour. This includes different shades of the same design.
We believe that every student deserves to feel their best on prom night, and this policy helps make that possible.

How Our Policy Works In Practice
When you visit our boutique for your prom appointment, you’ll have exclusive use of the space. Once you choose your dress, we log the design and your school to make sure no one else attending the same event can choose the same style.
We do allow students from the same school to wear dresses by the same designer, but the style must be different. For example, you might love a flowing gown by one of our designers, while another student selects a fitted option from the same brand. What matters is that no one else will have the exact same look.
This way, you can be sure that when you walk into your prom, you’ll be the only one in your dress.
Our Commitment To Choice And Style
We want every student to feel excited and included when choosing their prom dresses. That’s why we stock a wide selection of styles, sizes and silhouettes – from modern glamour to understated elegance.
We also cater for students looking for modest prom dresses or dress for prom long sleeve options, as well as those who want something bold and standout.
When it comes to colour, we offer a beautiful range, so whether you’re looking for a:

black prom dress
red prom dress
pink prom dress
emerald green prom dress
pink prom dress
We stock so many different colours for you to browse!
