FAQs!
DO I NEED AN APPOINTMENT?
Usually (Please!?!). We want to make sure you get the time and attention you need. Scheduling appointments lets us schedule our great staff to make sure you've got plenty of help to find the perfect dress for you -- without feeling rushed or crowded. We won't turn away a walk-in -- IF we have staff and dressing room space available. But if you're going to make a long drive, definitely get an appointment. It's easy (click the links at the top or bottom of this page).
DO YOU HAVE SHORT DRESSES?
No. With a handful of exceptions, our racks are full of beautiful LONG dresses. We want to make sure we've got the best and biggest selection -- and to make sure it's ALWAYS worth the drive to Vian. So FOR NOW, we're solely focused on LONG dresses. (We do have some 'high/low' dresses, if you're interested in that).
HOW ABOUT BRIDAL?
Same story. Maybe someday -- when our Glory gals graduate and start getting married!??! But for now, we're going to do one thing and make sure we do it right.
CAN I BRING MY DRESS BACK IF I CHANGE MY MIND?
Unfortunately, due to the nature of our business (a short, intense selling season and one-time special occasion dresses), it's not possible for us to allow returns. This is absolutely the industry norm and standard rule. PLEASE double check to make sure you're happy with the fit and everything about your dress while you're still in the store.
WHY VIAN?
Why not!? Glory is a family business, and most of our family is from Vian and nearby small towns in eastern Oklahoma. We've found most girls/moms drive some distance (often to Dallas or around Oklahoma) to buy their dressses, so you may as well make the drive instead to a fun, casual small town. No traffic jams; no parking problems; no big-city hassles!
DO YOU DO ALTERATIONS IN THE STORE?
No. If a dress doesn't fit just right, our first recommendation is to just keep looking and find one that does (We've got lots, and they all fit differently.). If your dress needs a tweak or two, it's probably easiest to take it back to your hometown and use a convenient seamstress you trust. We can offer some great recommendations for a seamstress in the Vian area if you need one.
WHAT SIZES DO YOU CARRY?
We've got sizes from 00 to 24W. The number of options we carry in each size is generally based on the number of customers we tend to have in each size. We do have more choices in the most-common sizes, but we try hard to have great choices for everyone.
