I understand a good place to shop for prom dresses is Bloomingdale's. Also heard there are boutiques on lower east side with some original dresses. Does anyone have the names of some places we might look? Thanks!!!!

Lord & Taylor has an excellent dress department as well. Worth a look.

I also recommend Lord & Taylor.

Well - I don;t know how prommy the promdress needs to be. Barney's has smashing stuff that's sophsiticated - but perhaps not prommy enough.

Boutiques on the LES? I've not heard of those -- but Orchard Street is lined with apparel shops. I bet that's it.

Here's a link to an article in NY Magazine showing fashions from last year's prom season. It mentions a number of stores downtown including Jill Stuart and Big Drop (also uptown locations)

Loehmann's might have some things.
