We have a huge selection of women's dresses in Holly Springs, NC, from stylistic sheath dresses to drop-waist styles that will make your girlfriends jealous.
These dresses are made to fit your waist and then gradually flare out towards the hem. A-line dresses are excellent for minimizing thighs, hips, and midsections while pulling the eyes to your bust. This style of dress is a great fit for almost any body type. There's a reason why so many brides settle on A-Line dresses for their big day! With plenty of varieties, this is a kind of dress that you can wear again and again.

Like the A-Line style, empire dresses are made to fit through your bust. Rather than creating a distinctly angular shape like the A-Line, the Empire style flows from the bust down. This is another kind of dress that fits many body types. From curvy to apple body shapes, the Empire draws focus to your bust and minimizes everything else. For lovely ladies on the shorter side, this style defines your silhouette, especially if you choose a maxi length dress.

A throwback to the roaring 20's style flapper dresses, Drop Waist dresses look best on lean, athletic bodies that don't have too many curves in the hip area. The key to pulling off a Drop Waist style dress is to ensure that it's not hugging you. This dress is best worn when it is able to hang freely on your body.
SHOP NOWOnce you know the kind of waist that fits your body type, it's time to find your shape. A few of our most popular dress shapes include:
Any clothing store for women in Holly Springs, NC, worth its salt, will have plenty of fit & flare dresses for you to try. This common-shaped dress is one of the most popular on the market, mainly because they look great on every woman, regardless of age or shape. A timeless choice, fit & flare dresses fit through the bodice and flare out just below your hip. This helps develop a balanced, slimming silhouette for most women. If you want to accentuate your best assets and hide everything else, ask our experienced fashionistas to show you some the most popular fit & flare dresses at Copper Penny.
Time to start doing your happy dance! Fit & flare dresses have very balanced proportions, making them a true winner for every body type. Women with athletic builds love this dress for the extra curves. Women with apple-shaped bodies love how fit & flare dresses define their waistlines. Because this dress already looks like an hourglass on the hanger, it will be a natural fit for ladies with such a figure.
Shift dresses are typically rectangular in shape and tend to be comfy and forgiving since they aren't fitted. Also called a column dress, the shift dress is a great choice for polished professionals needing a conservative, fashionable outfit for work.
These dresses look fabulous on women with athletic, lean shapes and women with an apple-like figure. This kind of dress doesn't work well with a belt, so ladies with an hourglass figure may not be able to show off their curves in a shift. Try pairing this dress with a nice pair of heels for a beautiful new look!
Wrap dresses are one of the most popular styles on the market, because they give ladies of most shapes and sizes a flattering, fashionable dress option.
If you have an hourglass, apple, or generally curvy body shape, you're going to love wrap dresses. This style of dress offers a natural waist while placing emphasis on your bust. Wrap dresses give you a balanced silhouette and, with a knee-length fit, are great for any type of color or style, both day and nightwear.
Unless you're feeling extra sassy, chances are you're wearing a top at this very moment. Tops are garments that cover the top half of your body. At Copper Penny, we have an endless selection of tops in a wide range of styles - from basic tees to blouses and everything in between. If you're looking for the highest quality women's tops in Holly Springs, NC, you just hit the jackpot!
With that said, finding the right top for the right occasion is easier said than done. However, at Copper Penny, we make finding the right top fun. Whether you're looking for a top that makes a statement or you need a classic button-down for a subdued style, we've got your back. We only carry the most popular tops from the best brands and designers around the world.
Sometimes called broadcloth tops, poplins have classic characteristics and are often woven with an over/under weave. This kind of weave gives more substance to your top while also giving you room to breathe. Poplin shirts are typically soft and smooth, and are great for everyday business attire, some formal occasions, and for certain ceremonies. Sweet and feminine, our Bruna poplin eyelet bib top features ruffles at the sleeves and an eyelet lace yoke at the front. Pair your poplin with your favorite pair of shorts or jeans for a contemporary, relaxed look.

Great for wearing solo or layered over a camisole or tank top, wrap tops are lightweight, versatile, and great for many different occasions. Wrap tops go well with jeans, maxi dresses, and high-waisted jeans or trousers. Our V-Neck Wrap SLV Top by Jayden is uber-popular at Copper Penny and the perfect choice for dressing down or dressing up. The choice is yours!

For a dose of feminine fashion, be sure you add an off-the-shoulder top to your everyday wardrobe. A casual, sexy choice, off-the-shoulder tops have unique necklines that cut across your upper arms and chest, leaving your shoulders bare. The result is a flirty flash of skin, which elongates your neck and gives a relaxed, "daytime casual" look. Our Nola off-the-shoulder top pairs perfectly with shorts or even a flowy skirt and is hand-woven in Spain using Jacquard fabric.

Who doesn't love a good tank top?! Tank tops are lightweight, versatile, and equally great for lounging in the yard or running errands on weekends. Tank tops lend an air of simplicity to your outfit and can be styled in endless ways. Take our Velvet Heart Victory Tank, for instance.

When choosing a women's top for your outfit, you have to consider how comfortable, confident, and beautiful you will feel. The best way to feel your best in an outfit is to make sure it fits correctly. To get started, you'll want to take your measurements. For most women's tops, the best areas to focus on are your hips, waist, and chest.
Hip Measurements: Measuring your hips is fairly easy. Take your measuring tape and use it to wrap around the widest area of your hips.
Waist Measurements: Take your measuring tape and place it at the very top of your hip bone. Wrap it all the way around your body. Try to keep your measuring tape in line with your belly button. For the most accurate measurements, stand up straight and breathe normally.
Chest Measurements: For an accurate chest measurement, take the end of your measuring tape and place it on the fullest area of your bust. From there, wrap the tape around your body, under your armpits, and around the blades of your shoulders. Then, wrap the tape tightly from the back of your body to the front, where you started.

A handful of changes are being recommended to a plan that would move thousands of Wake County students to different schools in 2025.
School administrators presented Tuesday the second draft of a student assignment plan for the 2025-26 school year that fills four new schools and moves students to other schools. Administrators said they included some of the changes suggested by parents when the first draft was released in September.
“We’re making five recommended adjustments based on the feedback we’ve received,” said Susan Pullium, senior director of student assignment.
Most of the plan impacts southern and southwestern Wake, where the new schools will open. The exact number of students who could be reassigned usually isn’t provided until later versions of the assignment plan.
In 2025, Wake is opening Felton Grove High School in Holly Springs. The district will also open Bowling Road Elementary in Fuquay-Varina, Pleasant Plains Elementary in Apex and Rex Road Elementary in Holly Springs.
The public can view the plan at wcpss.net/2025enrollmentproposal. People can see whether their address is affected by searching osageo.wcpss.net/enrollment-proposal-lookup.
People can provide feedback at an online forum at wcpss.net/draftfeedback.
The school board will hold a public hearing on Nov. 12 The final plan will be presented for a vote on Nov. 26.
Here are the changes recommended in the new draft:
â–ª Assign the Depot 499 subdivision to Pleasant Plains Elementary. Drop the reassignment of students from the Bella Casa and Holland Farms subdivisions from Scotts Ridge Elementary to Pleasant Plains,
â–ª Drop the reassignment of students from Carroll Middle to Leesville Road.
â–ª Allow rising sophomores in Apex High’s Academy of Information Technology and Apex Friendship High’s Academy of Engineering to request stability transfers to avoid being reassigned. They’d have to provide their own transportation if they stay.
â–ª Allow families being reassigned from Olive Chapel and Salem elementary schools to Baucom Elementary to apply to Apex Middle so they can stay on the same calendar.
â–ª Wake uses a process called “capping” where some students are sent to an overflow school if their assigned school doesn’t have space. Administrators said they’ll notify families sooner when they’re eligible to return to their capped school.
Board members and administrators said the changes show that the public is being heard in the assignment process.
“It’s not for nothing that you give this feedback,” said school board member Wing Ng.
Administrators gave answers for why some changes aren’t recommended, such as:
â–ª Some families wanted Felton Grove High to only open for ninth-graders so students wouldn’t have to change schools in their sophomore year. But administrators said they need to open Felton Grove with 9th and 10th grades to ensure there are enough students to offer a comprehensive program and to relieve crowding at other schools.
â–ª Families in the Ashley Downs and Pearson Farms subdivisions asked to stay at Olive Chapel Elementary. Administrators said the reassignment is needed to relieve crowding at Olive Chapel and to take advantage of the seats at the newly renovated Baucom Elementary.
â–ª Families in multiple subdivisions didn’t want to be reassigned from a traditional-calendar elementary school to the year-round calendar at Pleasant Plains. Administrators said they need the year-round capacity at Pleasant Plains to relieve overcrowding and keep up with growth.
â–ª Some families wanted Bowling Green Elementary to open on a traditional calendar. Administrators said the year-round calendar is needed to keep up with growth in that part of the county.
School board member Lindsay Mahaffey said families will appreciate getting reasons why the changes they want aren’t being made.
Once the plan is approved, Wake will open a “stability transfer period,” or what used to be called “grandfathering.” This option allows some students who are being moved to stay at their current school in exchange for losing bus service.
The proposed stability rules will vary depending on whether a student is being reassigned to a new school or an existing one. The newly renovated Baucom Elementary and Fuquay-Varina Middle are treated as existing schools under the stability rules.
â–ª Current students heading into fourth and fifth grades who are reassigned to Bowling Road, Pleasant Plains or Rex Road elementary schools can stay at their current school. In addition, their younger siblings will be able to stay with them at their current school.
â–ª Rising freshmen and sophomores reassigned to Felton Grove High can stay at their previously assigned high school as long they’re together with an older sibling who will be a rising junior or senior. Those students will be able to ride the bus with their older sibling.
â–ª Current students heading into grades 1-5 who are reassigned to an existing elementary school can stay at their current school. Their younger siblings who are entering kindergarten next year can stay with them.
â–ª Current students rising into grades 7 and 8 who are reassigned to an existing middle school can stay at their current school. Their younger siblings entering sixth grade next year can stay with them.
â–ª Current students rising into grades 10-12 who are reassigned to an existing high school can stay at their current school. Their younger siblings who will be rising freshmen next year can stay with them.
“We’re not recommending any adjustments because they’re as generous as we can be,” Pullium said.

HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. (WTVD) -- A homegrown baseball star is set to pitch on the world's biggest stage this weekend.
New York Yankees pitcher and two-time All-Star Carlos Rodon, who led Holly Springs High School to its only state championship in 2011 and helped NC State reach its first College World Series in nearly 50 years in 2013, is preparing for his first World Series start when the Yankees take on the Dodgers. Rodon will be the Game 2 starter in Los Angeles on Saturday night.
"You always knew he had a chance to be special from the first time you saw him," recalled Holly Springs head baseball coach Rod Whitesell.
Whitesell said that long before Rodon was striking out big-league batters, he brought that same energy to the Hawks.
"I don't want to say becomes a different person, but he goes from, like, here where he's even-keeled to like, 'boom, I'm ready to go and I'm ready to compete,'" said Whitesell.
That's just how Elliott Avent -- the longtime baseball coach for NC State -- remembers him, too.
I've seen very few competitors in my lifetime of coaching as competitive as Carlos Rodon.- Elliott Avent, NC State baseball coach
"When he is really driven to do something, I've seen very few competitors in my lifetime of coaching as competitive as Carlos Rodon," Avent said.
His coaches say it's precisely that competitive fire that's helped propel Rodon to two All-Star games, a lucrative six-year contract with the Yankees, and now, a chance to win a World Series.
"Everyone's just excited about seeing a local kid do well and be in the spotlight," said Whitesell.
The player is now under the brightest lights imaginable, but for these two coaches -- the vantage point is unchanged.
"I actually sit there and kind of still coach him as you still talk to him, even though he can't hear. But seeing him out there brings me back to the days when he was in our dugout," said Avent.
Whitesell said there will be quite the cheering section when he takes the mound for the first time in a World Series game.
"I know, quite a few people, all his former teammates, a ton of teachers of the school. And I'm sure there's the community as a whole is going to be just rooting like crazy for him," he said.
