Where is a good place to go and try on dresses? We can't really buy online because somoe of us have unique physical shapes. We all need dresses in the same color except the MOH and David's left us more than wanting. Are there any other chains or stors people can recommend? We live in a ginormous metropolitan area. Thanks.

Department stores are good if the bride isn't dead-set on everyone lookind identical. Ex: she could just say "any halter black cocktail dress in cotton" and you could all find something on your own at Nord/Neiman/etc. Other than that, where to try on depends on whether she's interested in certain designers, what's close to you, what you all can afford, etc. |

My bridesmaids are wearing three different styles of dresses, but same designer, fabric and color. There's no way we'd be able to find any dress in a dept. store that would match, plus the one dress that is MIA is in a larger size, which complicates things. This bridesmaid is in Tallahassee, so they don't even have the same department stores there that they do here. At this point we're all just keeping our fingers crossed that the dress comes in! |

If you have a Jessica McClintock store by your house, they usually carry bridesmaid's type dresses and the quality is good. Also, Talbot's and Laura Ashley are usually good. Depending on the color needed, Target carries bridesmaid dresses but I don't know how good the selction there is. :) |

If they foul this up I am sure KSUViolet and I can cut them and knock them out with a zucchini. |

I'm really hoping we can incorporate a shade of brown into our colors. I so am loving tan or chocolate suits. Season dependent of course.

Like this kind of a thing?

Bridesmaid dress update
I am soooooooo pissed right now. The dress boutique - The New Image, in Thomasville, GA - says the manufacturer cannot ship the dress until 10/14 at the earliest...for my 10/16 wedding. So, too late.
The only solution they're offering is to 1. Get our money back; or 2. Have fabric shipped from the manufacturer to arrive Monday, at which time a local tailor can make a dress for my bridesmaid. But even in that case they aren't giving a full refund. We are going with option 2 for now, but you can bet we are going to get our money back. I don't think the Jim Hjelm folks would be happy to hear that one of their retailers has offered to make a copy of their dress. Again, none of us believe that the store ordered the dress when it was supposed to have. If any of you can track down a phone number for Jim Hjelm corporate, I'd love it. I've tried looking but haven't been able to find the right number. ETA: Found a customer service number, but they can't disclose order info. due to contracts they sign with retailers. But the rep told me, "I'll just say this...there's no reason why the dress would take that long. It would not take that long to get one of our dresses." |
