If alternative dresses are what you're looking for then you're in the right place. Our women’s Gothic and alternative dresses collection is something we are proud of, here at Blue Banana. Whether it is alternative prom dresses, vintage summer dresses or an adorable mini dress that you are looking for, you’re sure to find something that suits your vibe.

Our dresses come in a variety of cuts so you can be sure to find a fit that makes you feel fabulous. The vintage dresses in our collection often feature a full circle skirt with cinched in waist for that classic 50s silhouette. Within our gothic dresses range you will find cuts of all styles including hi-low dresses, mini dresses, and bodycon styles.

Alternative Formal Dress

We think everyone deserves to feel fabulous when they are heading out to an important event so whether you are searching for your dream prom dress or need a confidence boost at your next event, our range of dresses may have that signature look you are searching for.

If mainstream just isn’t your scene, then stick with our alternative fashion collection to help you find the prom dress of your dreams. Why go for the same look as everyone else when you could have an elegant Gothic dress or vibrant vintage frock that will keep you dancing the night away.
