High school seniors across the nation are in a state of panic as prom season descends, with reports surfacing of a designer allegedly ruining dreams with devastating delays. Ane Walker, a 28-year-old dress designer, is facing a barrage of accusations from frantic teens who claim their custom gowns for prom have either not arrived or are riddled with defects.

Alyssa Price, an 18-year-old from Tennessee, shared her harrowing experience of paying $650 in full for a gown that was promised to arrive weeks ago, only to receive a dress that was multiple sizes too big and poorly fitted. “You ruined prom for me,” she lamented, echoing the sentiments of many others who have taken to social media to voice their frustrations.

The Shade Room’s investigative team uncovered a storm of complaints directed at Walker, whose business “Shootute Wear” appears overwhelmed, with reports of dresses being two weeks late. This chaos has sparked online threats against Walker, with some clients resorting to extreme measures, claiming they were scammed. In a disturbing twist, Walker herself has reported receiving threats, heightening the tension surrounding her business.

Walker claims she is overwhelmed, managing a flood of orders alone, and insists that she is not a scammer. Yet clients are demanding accountability as the clock ticks down to prom nights. With communication breakdowns and evasive responses, many are left without the glamorous gowns they envisioned for their big night.

As prom season intensifies, the pressure mounts. Parents and students are urged to be cautious, vetting designers carefully before parting with their hard-earned cash. The chaos surrounding Walker’s business serves as a stark reminder of the stakes involved in what is supposed to be a joyous rite of passage. As the prom deadline looms, the question remains: will these young women salvage their dreams, or has this designer truly ruined their prom night?
