I need dress help for my sister
I have a lovely fuschia sari that will fit anyone! LOL!
I got my gold A-line floor length skirt for my son's wedding at David's Bridal for $79. If you find an outfit at their store but they don't have the right size, they wil search their opther stores and the other store will send it to you for $15 - but it may be not returnable, not sure. I got the dark teal protrait collar, 3/4 sleeve blouse at Dillards for around the same price. Both are size 18W or I would give them to you. My point is that these stores both carry plus sizes. I couldn't find a complete outfit at one store anywhere, but putting it together worked for me.
I might be able to locate one or two for you .... I will check the sizes of the ones I am thinking of, and if they are in that size range, I will let you know. Both are formal, floor length dresses....seems to me one is forest green and the other is a deep red with a sa****hink they are both from David's. Let me check and I will get back to you.
I actually live in Stafford but have family in Manassas....so if these work out, I can make arrangements to meet you or something in Manassas.
I'll be back in touch,
Cindy
Courtney,
I know I had your cell number someplace - actually Bob had it to call you after surgery,. but I can't find it. I have a closet full of stuff - some more formal than others - I know I have a long brown velvet 3 piece dinner type suit, with some gold sparkles on it - I believe it's a size 24 - you're welcome to it (and anything else that would fit her) if you'd like. Email me at [email protected] if you want to get together and shop my closet. We might even be able to put a skirt and fancy top together for her. I know how hard this is for you - I was a big bride with a bigger bridesmaid and it was a challenge. Hang in there - it will all fall into place!
Hugs,
Chele
When I got married, I was a sales rep and visited the Pa. area frequently. There are lots of wedding appropriate stores up there. Have you looked for their adds in the back of the wedding Mag's? I know you may be crunched for time, but it was amazing how much I found in Pa.that was pus sized and really attractive, it's only a couple of hours away.
Also, I was in a wedding and asked to wear black as a bridesmaid. With black Tuxes it looked really beautiful! You need to have some color in your flowers though to give it balance.
