AUSA/ODYD Pop-Up 2026

Operation Deploy Your Dress’s primary goal is to improve the quality of life of military families by offsetting the high cost of attending formal military functions, especially for junior servicemembers. ODYD currently “deploys” dresses from thirteen brick and mortar shops at installations around the world. These shops are solely run by military spouse volunteers.

 

The heart and soul of this organization is the following three pillars:

  • Deploying America’s patriotism one dress at a time
  • Fostering community through volunteerism, while building concrete work experience for military spouses.
  • Upholding military tradition and cultivating camaraderie  

ODYD assists in bridging the ever-growing gap between the military and civilian communities by offering a tangible way for the American public to show their appreciation for the service and sacrifice of our military servicemembers and their families.
