Gift the Gown
Our Gift the Gown program allows the opportunity for those who are military-connected to ‘shop’ for a free gently used (or sometimes new!) dress or gown for their next upcoming formal event, whether it is a military ball, homecoming, prom or other event where formal attire is appropriate.
Oftentimes, we also have shoes, handbags, and other accessories available!
When available, in partnership with Fort Riley’s Army Community Service, we’ll offer a 'Ball Etiquette’ class and invite local businesses to offer beauty samples or hair and makeup tips and tricks.
Stay tuned for new and exciting updates to our program, which will be back later this year!
