About The Dress Outlet

Established in 2008 and based in the heart of Los Angeles, The Dress Outlet (TDO) is a premier online destination for bridal and formal wear. What started with a mission to provide affordable wedding gowns has evolved into a massive digital marketplace featuring prom dresses, bridesmaid attire, and high-end designer labels like Jovani and Cinderella Divine. TDO bridges the gap between high-fashion aesthetics and accessible pricing, ensuring that every woman can find a dress that reflects her identity for life’s most important milestones.

Transforming the High-Stakes Formal Wear Shopping Experience

Shopping for a wedding or prom dress is an emotional journey that requires more than just a standard checkout process. Users need to feel confident in the fit, the color accuracy, and the reliability of the shipping. The Dress Outlet needed a digital storefront that could handle thousands of SKUs across diverse categories while maintaining a chic, boutique feel. Codeflies collaborated with The Dress Outlet to build a high-performance e-commerce ecosystem. We focused on creating a seamless “moment to moment” experience—from the first search for a trending 2026 prom style to the final delivery at the customer’s doorstep.

"A good dress isn't just something you wear—it's who you are in that moment. At TDO, we are dedicated to bringing the most exciting styles to our customers at prices that delight."

I see a big difference between when we were not with Codeflies and now when we are using their services. They are able to assess our needs and they took us all the way to where we should be. When we originally called them, we had trouble figuring out sales on Google because Google had changed.

Our Project Challenges

1

Hiring the right team

Hiring the right people with just the right skills and experience in food e-commerce was essential to fulfill the nitty-gritty of the requirement and achieve desired results. Our team, with complete detailing, selected people that were not just experts in their respective fields but also highly professional and responsive to the client’s needs.

2

Reducing time to market
In order to handle competitive pressure, it was crucial to reduce the app’s time to market. To meet the need, we placed our team onsite to help bridge the gap in understanding the requirement and connect cross-functional teams to brainstorm the solution while keeping in mind the current legacy system and its limitations.

3

Offering high personalization
In order to make people order from the KFC food delivery application in place of aggregator apps, it was critical to double down on the customer experience. To achieve the same, we offered a high level of personalization in the app and made it easy for customers to view their order history and make payment through multiple gateway options.
1

Managing a Diverse and Volatile Inventory

Fashion trends change weekly. We developed a flexible back-end system that allows TDO to quickly launch new collections—like the Prom 2026 line—and manage sales across different designers without disrupting the site’s stability.

2

Building Consumer Trust in Formal Wear

Buying expensive gowns online can be intimidating. We helped Codeflies design a UI that emphasizes "Superior Customer Service," highlighting fast shipping icons and return policies directly on product pages to encourage confident shopping.

3

Optimizing Multi-Category Navigation

With styles ranging from "Classic and Timeless" to "Chic and Contemporary," the search architecture needed to be flawless. We implemented an intelligent search bar and predictive filtering, making it easy for users to find a specific look, such as "Plus Size Formal" or "Cheap Prom Dresses," within seconds.
