LAFAYETTE — Hundreds of free prom dresses will be available to a high school student in need at the Tippecanoe Mall on Thursday.

Many of the prom dresses were donated by Trudie's Bridal and Formal Wear in all shapes and sizes.
Gown Town will be located between in the old Victoria's Secret location of the mall near Entrance C.
