One of the most exciting moments of planning your quinceañera is choosing your dream dress! Your quince dress is the centerpiece of your celebration and deserves plenty of time for ordering, fittings, and alterations.
When Should You Order Your Quinceañera Dress?
We recommend ordering your quinceañera dress at least 9 months before your quince date. Many designer dresses take several months to arrive, especially custom styles or special-order gowns.
To avoid stress and last-minute issues, make sure your dress will arrive at least 2 months before your quinceañera. This gives you enough time for alterations and final fittings.
Schedule Your Dress Fittings Early
Once your dress arrives, schedule your fittings right away. Most quince dresses need adjustments to fit perfectly. During your fitting appointments:
Bring the shoes you plan to wear
Wear the correct undergarments
Practice walking and dancing in your dress
Make sure the length feels comfortable
Remember: the crinolina (petticoat) is VERY important! It helps give your dress the full princess shape. Ask your boutique about different crinolina options to find the best fit for your gown style and comfort.
Questions to Ask Your Quince Dress Boutique
Before placing your order, ask:
What is the estimated delivery time?
Are alterations included?
How many fittings are recommended?
What crinolina style works best with my dress?
What happens if the dress arrives late?
