About Us
Thank you for the opportunity to help you find the perfect gown for your special event. We have the perfect dress for your next prom, pageant, homecoming, military ball, cocktail party, or other formal events. Please read the following so we may better serve you.
Our gowns start at $250 and up. We do have the store divided by size. Our cocktail dresses range from $250 to approximately $800. Prices reflected on our website are the prices of dresses in the store.
Layaway
We offer layaway for gowns priced at $350 and up. A 25% deposit of the total price and a $35 layaway fee is due at the time of layaway. There is a five-day grace period from your payment date; missing payments will result in a $25 late fee. We have an automatic payment plan available for your convenience as well. After your gown is on layaway, you will no longer be able to try it on or show anyone. When the balance is paid in full, we will release your gown. Layaway dresses are stored in a safe environment. When you are ready to get your gown out of layaway, please email us at least 24 hours in advance info@aatrnc.com. Notifying us ensures that we will have your dress pulled from storage and ready for you. Failure to email us may cause a lengthy wait, or we may request that you come back another day. There are no refunds, exchanges, or credits on layaways.No exceptions.
Payment Plans

Up to 6-month payment plans available for Couture dresses
Special orders
To place a special order with one of our designers, we require a 60% deposit and shipping fee. If the gown is in stock with the designer, it can take up to 4 weeks (or more due to Covid) to arrive in the store. Please allow a two-week grace period (before and after) for shipments. Due to Covid, we will NOT take special orders for items that are not in our vendor's warehouse. Rush delivery is sometimes an option for an additional fee. Once your gown is ordered, it is yours; refunds or exchanges are not given.
Holds
If you have found your dress and want to put it on hold for 24 hours, there will be a $50 charge. If you do not return to finalize the purchase in the next 24 hours, the gown will go back on the floor, and you forfeit your monies. If you come back in 24 hours, your hold fee will be credited towards that gown—no exceptions to this rule.
