We'll give them a bash. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-mother-of-the-bride-dress#post-148934 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 01:53:10 +0000 Angie 148934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I honestly think that Bridal sites are your best bet at this point, unless you keep scouring the sales and get to brick and mortar stores. Have you tried Lane Bryant and Jones? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-mother-of-the-bride-dress#post-148892 Tue, 27 Apr 2010 23:29:55 +0000 Becky 148892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She's 5'6". We haven't looked at David's Bridal; she was hoping to get something informal enough to wear again for a variety of other occasions, like church. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-mother-of-the-bride-dress#post-148781 Tue, 27 Apr 2010 18:46:33 +0000 Angie 148781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How tall is your mother, Becky? Have you tried David's Bridal? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-mother-of-the-bride-dress#post-148758 Tue, 27 Apr 2010 17:26:05 +0000 Becky 148758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My sister will be getting married in August, and I am my mother's designated shopping assistant for her dress. We've tried many online retailers without much luck (e.g., Nordstrom, Macy's, Dillard's, etc.). She has some very specific requirements:<br /> *Three-quarter sleeves (can be a jacket worn over a sheath)<br /> *Mid-calf skirt length -- No, she can't be talked out of this one! I've tried! :-)<br /> *Less than $200<br /> *No black or nude tones so prevalent this season<br /> *Must be available in size 16</p> <p>Do you have suggestions for online retailers we might try? </p>
