00 Homecoming season

Hoco fits, thrift prices.

Brand-name homecoming dresses — most under $25 — plus shoes, bags and guys' looks. New arrivals hit the racks daily at Plato's Closet Draper, all season long.

01 The math

A whole fit for less than a mall dress.

Mall homecoming dresses run $80-150, get worn once, and three other people at the dance have the same one. Our dresses come from Utah closets — every piece is one-of-one, and most are $10-25.

Dress

$10-25 secondhand
$80-150 new

Shoes

$8-20 secondhand
$40-80 new

Bag + jewelry

$5-15 secondhand
$30-60 new

And the move that makes it nearly free: sell last year's dress for cash on the same trip. Dress demand peaks in September and October, so that's when payouts on them are strongest.

02 For the guys

The $30 hoco fit.

Button-down or polo, dress pants, clean shoes — Ralph Lauren, Abercrombie and Express land on our racks daily. A complete guys' homecoming look typically runs $20-40 secondhand, and if it comes back in clean condition, you can sell it back to us afterward.

HOMECOMING FAQ

What hoco shoppers ask.

Where can I find cheap homecoming dresses in Utah?

Plato's Closet Draper stocks brand-name dresses secondhand, most under $25 — versus $80-150+ new at the mall. Inventory changes daily during homecoming season (September-October), so check back weekly. We're at 12198 State St #7 in Draper, 10-15 minutes from Sandy, Riverton, South Jordan, Lehi and Bluffdale.

What kind of homecoming dresses does Plato's Closet Draper carry?

Whatever Utah closets sell us — which during hoco season means a rotating mix of mini, midi, satin, sequin, corset-style and slip dresses from brands like Windsor, Lulus, Altar'd State, Abercrombie, Princess Polly and House of CB. Every dress is one-of-one; sizes and styles vary daily. That's the thrift trade-off: less predictable than the mall, way better price, and nobody else at the dance is wearing it.

How much does a homecoming outfit cost if I thrift it?

A realistic full fit from our racks: dress $10-25, heels or boots $8-20, bag and jewelry $5-15. That's a complete homecoming look for under $60 — often less than the mall price of the dress alone.

Do you have homecoming clothes for guys?

Yes — button-downs, polos, dress pants, and clean sneakers or dress shoes from brands like Ralph Lauren, Abercrombie, and Express. A full guys' hoco fit typically runs $20-40 secondhand.

Can I sell my old homecoming or prom dress?

Bring it in — we pay cash on the spot for current-style dresses in clean condition, no appointment needed. Homecoming season is exactly when dresses are in highest demand, so payouts on them are strongest September-October. Sell last year's dress, put the cash toward this year's.

When should I shop for a homecoming dress in Utah?

Start 2-3 weeks before your school's dance and check back twice a week — our dress racks turn over daily because inventory comes from what people sell us. Most Salt Lake County homecoming dances run late September through October. Weekday mornings have the freshest picks after weekend buys.

Racks refresh daily. Come dig.

Open until 9 PM Monday-Saturday, 6 PM Sunday. 10-15 minutes from Sandy, Riverton, South Jordan, Lehi, Bluffdale and Cottonwood Heights.
