BM/FG Dress At Good Cost


Recommended Posts

With the economy tight I need to find a nice but cost effective dress for my MOH and 2 FGs does anyone have any recommendations on a dress or where they got them. I am open to colors, which is why I would like to find a dress soon so I can get some of my DIY stuff done.

Here is another option that I never would have considered originally....I ordered 2 fg dresses only to have them both come back as discontinued, not happy....but happy I saved $300 on both trys at ordering. I was going to wait until spring to see the new lines. I went to the fabric mart (garment district in LA) and found some amazing fabrics this weekend. I was shocked that a fabric I was goign tospend $18/yd on was only 1 or $2/yd here. Casually on the way home, I asked my mom if it would be cheaper to have it made...her thinking I have no artistic taste so she was concerned, until I explained what I was thinking (I had a specific dress in my head that I had not seen anywhere in the right colors/texture). We now have $20 (this is high as I bought lime silk and extra organza) in fabric, $10 in a pattern, and a seamstress will make it for almost nothing....

I am getting exactly what I want for over $200 less....a great way to go.
