XP: Can you help me find a bridesmaids dress?

sarah260 · June 2012

*I posted this to the Attire and Accessories board, but also wanted your opinions!

I've asked my girls to choose an ivory dress, short/knee length dress for my wedding. I also asked them to avoid lace if possible, because my dress is lace. So far, four girls have a dress, but one is still struggling. Can you help us find options for her to look at? I feel like we've looked everywhere!

She is a size 16 and very busty, and she never feels comfortable in strapless or anything too revealing. We're trying to stay between $100-150, maybe up to $175. If it makes a difference, my wedding is being held in a church at 4:30pm. I feel like it has a fairly laid back feel, nothing super formal. The guys will be be wearing gray suits.

Here are the other girls dresses:

For the Alfred Angelo ones, I thought the page would give my search. But just refine the search to Ivory and whatever length you want. I came up with 3 pages of options in Ivory.

I think my mom is the same size as your BM, and she bought the first dress that jmp2004 posted from Macy's, only she got it in navy blue (if it wasn't that exact dress, it was only that looks EXTREMELY similar). My mom liked it because it covered her shoulders, and the cut of the dress looked really nice on her. She also loved the length.

We got her dress over Memorial weekend, and all the department stores were having huge sales with tons of dresses. I don't know if that'll be the same now, but it wouldn't hurt to check! Think JCPenney, Macy's, Sears, Nordstrom, or Dillard's (whichever of those is in your area).

I really like the one from Davids Bridal myself. My Mom is my MOH and I have one bridesmaid, my Mom is a plus size lady and she ordered the same dress as my BM but she ordered a shawl to drape over her shoulders and arms because she is really self conscious about herself gaining like 30 pounds over 3 years and she is dieting now, and plans on getting some body shaper to wear under the dress...If I can find it, I will post it on here
