Every year, Max I. Walker customers donate dresses – prom, wedding, bridesmaid, cocktail and other formal gowns – at locations all across the Metro, and then Max I. Walker’s employees generously clean, press and store them. Once ready, the dresses are sold for just $30 (cash only) at the Ultra Chic Boutique dress sale event in February. From 2007 to 2017, the proceeds were donated to the Open Door Mission's Lydia House.

Starting in 2018, the Max I. Walker family began partnering with the Nebraska Alzheimer's Association for the Ultra Chic Boutique. At the February 2, 2019, event, we raised almost $18,000 in just 6 hours for this worthy cause!

Dress Donations Accepted Year Round

If you have an old prom dress, bridesmaid's dress or any dresses you'll never wear again, simply drop them off at your nearest Max I. Walker location. We take dress donations year round! We'll clean, press and prepare your gowns, transforming them into the dress of someone's dreams, then store them until next year's big day.

Our event literally could not take place without the over 100 volunteers that show up each year to support the Nebraska Alzheimer's Association and the Ultra Chic Boutique.

If you want to be part of our amazing team for the 2020 event, we'd love to have you! Just subscribe to our emails. We'll send out more information in December 2019.
