As the end of the semester approaches, the hunt for a graduation dress begins. With limited availability in downtown State College, it’s important to know what’s worth your time and what’s not. If you’re not in the mood to order online and want the convenience of trying something on in-store, then be sure to check out these places downtown.

Connections

Connections offers a wide variety of grad dress styles with prices ranging from $60-80 depending on the brand. From lace to satin, there are plenty of options to choose from. They even offer some more casual summer dress options, if that’s more of your style.

Lock Boutique

Lock Boutique offers a more formal range of grad dresses. While they may be on the pricier side, with most dresses starting at $75, the quality does seem better than other options downtown.
