At Red Carpet Ready, we’re the UK’s largest prom and eveningwear shopping destination. With over 3,500 stunning dress styles under one roof, we have the most unique range of high-quality, affordable prom dresses, eveningwear, bridesmaids dresses, pageant gowns, and non-traditional bridal wear, offering you an experience you won’t find anywhere else.
Red Carpet Ready has redefined prom dress shopping so you can find a dress that feels as special as the night itself. We regularly serve customers from Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Bridgend and across South Wales. We’ve helped students from schools including Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Bro Edern & many others find unforgettable dresses for prom, leavers’ balls, and special occasions.
Every year, more and more students make the trip from Cardiff to shop with us at our venue, even travelling up to 9-hours! Found within a stunning old hall in Lincoln, our shopping destination has five themed luxury showrooms and an unbeatable range of styles in every colour and size imaginable. We are not just a store, we offer a full experience for the whole family, and even dads love us! Don’t just take our word for it – we have 1,500+ amazing reviews and have a 5-star rating on Google thanks to our delighted customers.
Our famous Prom Promise means that once a dress is chosen and registered to your school, we’ll never sell that style to anyone else attending your prom, not even in another colour. Whether you fall for a statement couture dress, a floor-length ball gown, or a dramatic fishtail design, shopping with us means your look is completely yours and yours alone for your prom or event.
But what really sets us apart? Our RCR Exclusives Collection is only available through Red Carpet Ready. These dresses are our most popular range by far – designed in-house, these dresses can’t be bought or tried on anywhere else in the UK. Is having that unique dress important to you? Combined with our Prom Promise, you’ve got your exclusive look sorted when you shop with us!
Our dresses are the go-to choice for celebrities looking to find breathtaking red carpet looks. From Ami Charlize in our crystal-embellished couture gown at the National Television Awards, to Milli Jo Mcloughlin, making a statement in an all-black gown at the same event, and Leanne Quigley (winner of The Traitors) who stunned in our fully embellished champagne gown. These looks prove just how show-stopping a Red Carpet Ready dress can be. Whether it’s a TV premiere, awards night, or headline event, the UK’s most stylish names trust Red Carpet Ready to deliver the wow.
Picking a dress out of our extensive collection could be a challenge, if it weren’t f for our full team of expert stylists who are always on hand during your appointment to ensure you find your perfect dress. Whether you need advice on colours, fits, accessories, or matching styles to your personality, they’re here to make sure you leave feeling confident and excited for your big night.
Can’t pay in full straight away? That’s no problem. You can secure your dream dress with a deposit and pay the rest later.
Don’t forget to finish your look with the perfect accessories. Our Say Yes To Me range includes sparkly clutch bags, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and everything you need to complete your outfit. Say Yes To Me accessories aren’t just perfect for prom – they can be used for eveningwear looks, smart casual occasions or even everyday wears!
