Warner Bros. Discovery treated 500 Atlanta students to one-on-one styling sessions with Monte Durham of TLC’s Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta and WBD employees to help them develop their unique prom look and style. 

The Atlanta schools involved in the styling sessions include KIPP Atlanta Collegiate, Carver Early College + Cristo Rey Atlanta, Mundy’s Mill High School, McNair High School, North Clayton High School, and Carver STEAM Academy.

This year’s SAY YES TO THE PROM experience includes a selection of on-trend dresses and thousands of shoes and accessories from Macy’s, as well as custom tuxedo fittings and trend-forward menswear rentals provided by Men’s Wearhouse. Cosmetics were donated by Glamnetic, Glamlite, and Lottie London, and L’Oréal USA donated thousands of products including fragrances, makeup, and cosmetic tools for hair and makeup consultations from established CNN stylists all thoughtfully curated to get students looking and feeling their best for a night to remember.
