Affordable brands for bridesmaids dresses

Nikki71

I am taking one of my bridesmaids dress shopping this weekend! I know I'd like my ladies in long, purple dresses, but I don't want them to have to spend a fortune! $100-$200 preferably! (obviously it'll likely be on the higher end of that budget)

We are going to a store that has multiple different brands of BM dresses, but I don't have time to research each brand. Anyone have a BM dress brand that offers long dresses for less than $200 they'd like to recommend?

My BM dresses are from Alfred Angelo, I think they were around $155. David's Bridal also has pretty inexpensive dresses. Also your BM's may get a discount if they order their dresses from the same shop you got your dress. My BM's got a 10% discount.

I had my girls in long purple dresses from various designers - Impression, Alfred Angelo and Alexia, these ranged from $130 - $200 (Impression being the most expensive).

After Six, Alfred Sung, Alfred Angelo, some Bill Levkoff and if you order from Pearlsplace.com they are really very reasonable.

My girls are in long chiffon navy bill levkoff dresses. I let them pick the specific style (and price). They each also went to small salons and were able to get a 10-20% discount just by asking. One got a February sale, two others got discounts for paying in full. It's worth asking about. You could also try macys.

Target has what they call "Plum Spice" http://www.target.com/p/Strapless-Wrap-Front-Chiffon-Maxi-Dress-Assorted-Colors/-/A-13697294

All of their dresses are $70. My MOH is getting this dress in the short version (in blue).
