    Im wondering if anyone can help me. I have been invited, last minute, to a dinner dance this coming tuesday evening. Its for a big event and my ex-boyfriend is going to be there, and I want to find an amazing outfit that I can wear that will really impress him.

    I have hardly any time to spare and I need to find somewhere in Dublin that sells really unique glamourous dresses without being too OTT, with nice shoes and an overcoat to go with it.

    Is there any nice clothes shops in Dublin someone could recommend for me to go where I can get all this, preferably all under one roof?

    What shops in Dublin sell nice dresses? Somewhere you're more or less guaranteed to find a nice going-out dress?

    I need a dress thats different, pretty, and chic, any recommendations?

    Maybe the third floor of Debenhams, lots of formal dresses there. Or if you wanted too make the trip to the Kildare Village Outlet you could pick up a great bargain.

    I'd say try Debenhams also, or perhaps Pamela Scott. House of Fraser or another department store. What is your budget? Fran and Jane have nice stuff.

    Id try to avoid debhmans or monsoon for big events as your more likely to wear the same oufit as someone else!

    Try smaller boutiques!

    Warehouse usually have stylish evening dresses. Remember looking great is more about finding an outfit that suits you than buying the most expensive dress you can find. I always recommend TK Maxx too for almost everything.

    What would your budget be? If you are trying to avoid something that others would have would recommend some of the smaller boutiques

    - Fran & Jane (in Blackrock and behind the Westbury)
    - Nijou on South Anne Street
    - TK Maxx is always a winner
    - Helen MacAlinden, Castle Market
    -Costume, just opposite, nice but very spenny

    I would recommend Lara Boutique in Terenure. I always go there if I'm stuck and I find them very helpful. Also the Karen Millen store in Dundrum. The girls are lovely there and would be happy to help kit you out! If you want something unique avoid debenhams.
