  From my understanding, the Fall collection was recently released, like mid July. I think the Spring collection will be in February.

  The fall collection was released in their catalog but when my bff went shopping they didn't have the samples in the store yet.

  I see your wedding is over a year away. I would definitely wait until about 6 mos before your wedding if you are using DB. I went with DB for all of my BM dresses for my June wedding. We went shopping in January of this year as they told me that was when the new spring styles & collections came out. I am not sure about their website but do know they tend to release things there before in the stores. My best advice would be to wait unless all of your girls are going to buy now & just keep them for a year.

  I just went to DB about a week ago and they DID have all of the new fall dresses in so it probably varies by location.  You could just call your local store and ask, but if you don't like what you see online anyway then there's probably no need.
  
  I agree with PP- you don't need that much time for BM dresses and can probably wait until the Spring designs come out.  I was told that they only need 6-8 weeks for BM dresses to come in so you may still have plenty of time.
  
  We didn't love the DB dresses either, so we are looking at Wtoo, Amsale, and After Six (Dessy) dresses.   They are a little more expensive, but I get a discount at the shop where I bought my dress.  If you've bought a wedding dress already see if they offer a similar discount for your BMs.

  Definitely wait until about 6 months out.  At most 8 months out.  DB will lie to you and tell you that you need to order it the day you are in the store to ensure that it will be in on time, but its a giant lie.  One of my BMs was in a wedding this past weekend, and when they went to order the dresses last October the woman told them they had to order them that day.  I picked the same dress for my girls so that BM didn't have to buy 2 very similar dresses, and we ordered ours in February and March and they all came in after 4-6 weeks. 
  
  As for the styles, I wouldn't go by what you see online necessarily.  When I saw the pics of my BM dresses online, I wasn't crazy about it, but it looks totally different in store than it did online.  My girls ranged from size 4-18 and the dresses looked great on all of them.
