CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
A lot more Chicago-area high school girls will have a dress for prom this year, thanks to a big giveaway.
Suburban-based clothes recycler Us Again gave away more than 1,000 dresses this weekend.
The dresses were either little-used, or never-used. Some even had the tags still on them.
Girls gathered at a West Chicago warehouse to pick up the dresses, and many of the girls bought used t-shirts to donate, as a way to keep recycling clothes.
