Sherri Hill grew up in Minco, a small town southwest of Oklahoma City, and studied fashion design at the University of Oklahoma. She spent years designing for Jovani before going out on her own. The company says it was founded in 2008 by Sherri Hill with co-founders Dusty Hill and Charles Hill, and it is now headquartered in Austin, Texas. Oklahoma Magazine reports the corporate office moved there after a 2011 tornado destroyed the brand's Oklahoma warehouses and offices.
That same profile puts the label in more than 1,000 stores in 30 countries. Our listings show 356 published prom shops carrying it across 45 states, second only to Jovani. Its footprint leans South. Florida, Texas, Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee hold 102 of those shops between them.
What stands out in our data is how many stores build their identity on this one label. Several make competing claims to be the biggest Sherri Hill seller in their part of the country. A few worth knowing:
- Girli Girl Boutique in Buford, Georgia, calls itself the number one Sherri Hill retailer in the United States on its About page.
- Ashley Rene's in Granger, Indiana, says it is the state's exclusive Sherri Hill Couture retailer.
- Ever After Bridal & Formalwear in Chattanooga, Tennessee, bills itself as East Tennessee's exclusive Sherri Hill prom provider.
- Lasting Impressions in Eufaula, Alabama, built its name since 2000 on a large stock of Sherri Hill prom and pageant gowns.
The look is glamorous and high-shine. Think beading, hot-fix sparkle, sequins and fitted trumpet shapes, alongside ruffled A-lines. The brand's own site lists Selena Gomez, Zendaya and Carrie Underwood among the stars who have worn its gowns, and it splits the range into prom, couture, cocktail, bridal and evening.
What do Sherri Hill prom dresses cost?
Most Sherri Hill prom styles sell for about $600 to $1,000 at full price.

Fully beaded gowns sit at the top of that spread.
