Everything you need to know about shopping new and pre-loved designer dresses with Dressed Up. Can’t find your answer? Get in touch.
Common Questions
Are the dresses new or pre-loved?
We sell both. Our collection includes new season pieces and pre-loved designer dresses from labels like Lexi, Nicholas, Winona, Nicola Finetti, Tania Olsen and Camilla and Marc. Each product page tells you whether the item is new or pre-loved, and any signs of wear on pre-loved pieces are described and photographed.
Are your dresses authentic?
Yes. Every dress we sell is 100% authentic, including our pre-loved pieces, and comes from the designer labels named on the product page.
Do you still hire dresses?
No. Dressed Up started as Australia’s first designer dress hire destination, but we now sell dresses so you can own the labels you love. Many of our pieces are offered well below their original retail price.
How do I choose the right size?
Please check the size and description on each product page. If you have any questions about sizing, fit or condition, contact us before you buy at stylist@dressedup.com.au or call 0416 237 330 and we will be happy to help.
Can I try a dress on before buying?
We are an online boutique. Our Sydney showroom at 4/60 Park Street is by appointment only, so please contact us first if you would like to arrange a visit.
How should I care for my dress?
We recommend dry cleaning only for all of our dresses. This keeps delicate fabrics, beading and embellishments looking their best.

Email us within 48 hours of delivery with your order number and photos of the fault. This does not affect your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Read our full returns policy.
