ExcitedBride.com, 12 October, 2011 at 14:12 Posted on Planning 0 28

Hi All,

From reading all the posts on here about BM dress etc, Im definitely not the only one struggling to find some and for less than say £70 each!! So just wondering if you would all mind flashing the dresses you have bough and saying where they are from!!

Many thanks!!!

    I'm considering these dresses

    you can get them in a choice of 28 colours from www.jjshouse.com and theyre £66.00 (up to size 26, although after a size 14 they add 5.19 and they can also custom make it for the same price)

    Probably no point flashing as I'm an OM and my dresses were bought over a year ago, but Warehouse were great and right now they're getting in party dresses for Christmas which would definitely be suitable for a BM.

    I'm really struggling with bridesmaids' dresses too. I can't look in any of the high street stores because they don't go up to the sizes we need ☹️

    Purple pixie - Im exactly the same..... My BMs range from an 8 to a 22!! I want them all to feel comfortable so Im thinking of taking a trip to the Birmingham lady and seeing what she can do. Mixed reviews on here but lately they seem to be positive!!!

    Its causing me so many headaches, and all my BM's want to give me there two pence worth of what and how they would like the dress to look like, which would be fine if they were all the same size which they arent. My CBM, my best friend, she is the larger of them and Im most weary of making sure she feels comfortable in what she wears, the slimmer girls suit most things.

    Aaaaarrrrgggggghhhh!!

    Hi MrsBtobe 1980. I ordered this dress from ebay at £40 each with no delivery charge, which I was told would take 25 - 37 days to be delivered - well it took no longer than 7 working days! It came on Monday!

    The dress is a bargain at £40 and the quality is good too! But if you have any tall BM's then it wont be any good.

    If your paying more than £40 a dress - definitely have a look on ebay!!

    Just out of interest - has anyone successfully ordered from the jjshouse website? I know a few have said they are going to....reason I ask is there is a dress on their web site that is IDENTICAL to one I ordered off ukdress.com, same model in pic, everything the same. I ordered 2 of the dress day before Royal Wedding, they finally arrived late July and were NOTHING like in the picture. They came with a chinese dispatch note. When I tried to get a refund it was like getting water out of a stone - they would not accept that the dress was not the same colour, had e-mails in broken English that were hard to read. In the end I gave up, and am trying to e-bay them, they are actually well made, just not the colour in the picture.

    Just wanted to warn people to be careful, but am also interested to see if anyone had any luck with this company ?

    I had no problems with the ordering and delivery etc....but im about to send it back....so we'll see how i get on there.

    Also just bear in mind that the dress do come up a little small, one of my bridesmaid is a normal 18 in clothes shops here, but is 18 weeks pregnant, and the biggest size they had - a 22 - was a little snug...

    Good luck though!!!

    I got them a couple of months ago. I think the larger stores should still have them. Word of advice they come up

    V small. You need the next size up x
