I need serious help. For real. I thought I had picked out a dress and I posted about it a few weeks ago. But, this one dress has consistently been on my mind and bugging me. It's by Christina Wu, it is on her
website (clicky).
The catch is, I cannot find it within a 100 miles of Pittsburgh. I have called every bridal shop listed on the website. A lady in Ohio was incredibly helpful though, she said they called Christina Wu and were told that the dress is still being "cut" and isn't available to be sent out until June. Bridal Beginning told me they could get it in for me to try on, but it'll cost $150 just to try it on.
So do I cough up the $150 and just do it? The dress is under budget by a good amount and I haven't ordered the other one. Would I get the same effect if I tried on something that had the same shape/style or at least really similar? Would you order a dress without trying on the exact thing?
Obviously, I have plenty of time. I'm not worried about that. I'm just worried that I'm pretty opinionated and picky, and this could take a long time. Plus, pretty much any dress I choose is going to be a special order since I'm so short. So a dress that may only be a 6 month turn around could take 8-10 months.
Help?
