Price point: $35-$65 (average $35)
Sizes: XS-XL
Variety: Fair –
Runway Fashion Exchange has a good-sized section for homecoming dresses at great prices. The downside is you’ll need a little luck finding your style and size in one of their dresses, because there is only one of each dress. Also, if you have some old clothes in good condition you can trade them in for store credit to go towards paying for your dress. They also have cute shoes for only $8!
