    I've been looking at Bill Levkoff and Alfred Angelo, they both seem to be available in a number of shops....  I'd be interested in hearing other designers too!!

    I went with Dessy.  I had 3 BMs that were all very different shapes and sizes, so I needed a designer that would color match different dresses.  Basically, I chose the dress length and color, and my girls chose the dresses that they each were comfortable in.  The thing I loved about Dessy is that not only will they color match their line, but they also have Lela Rose, Alfred Sung, After Six and Social, and they will color match across the different dress lines.  My girls literally had hundreds of dresses to choose from.  The quality was great and the pricing was very affordable.  I ordered the dresses from Pearl's Place to get a great discount too.

    I did Bari Jay for mine.  I picked the color (raspberry) and the fabric (charmeuse) and let them choose the rest.  They had so many to chose from.

    I chose a dress from Alfred Angelo which was style 7017s. My MOH wore it in harvest gold with a tea rose sash and my other BM's wore it in tea rose with the harvest gold sash. This way, the MOH was still in uniform with the other girls, but she stood out as the MOH.




    I also had a Jr. BM and a FG who wore the Jr. BM version of the dress with spaghetti straps and no sash.

    My girls were also many different shapes, sizes, and heights and I gave them a bunch of dresses to pick from and they narrowed it down to 2 dresses and I made the final decision. This dress was perfect because it was flowy so it was no only very comfortable for them but it wasn't too form fitting and flattered all of their body types.

    I used LulaKate.  I loved working with this designer because we were able to custom design the dresses.  We picked out the top, the skirt and the colors and they made the dress.  They have a ton of options.
    The girls were in an ivory sweetheart top with a charcoal full skirt that had pockets.  My sister, the MOH, had the same thing, but her band was pink so she stood out.  I attached some not so great pics, but we haven't received our pro pics yet so this is all I have.

    LulaKate. Ours are very similar to megbrooks, but ours are one color. I think we are doing navy. The LulaKate navy isn't tooo dark so I hope it will be ok!

    Ours were Ann Taylor.  My BM's were all in different places, so that way they could order them and have them shipped (and also make any necessary exchanges).

    We are considering a D'Zage Dress. Think it's a Bill Levkoff brand.
