Bridesmaid dress dilemma

Katmandoodle, 22 January, 2012 at 20:13 Posted on Planning 0 15

I'm having trouble finding bridesmaid dresses, I'm trying to stick to quite a tight budget and every chiffon dress I find is over that. I have tried looking for sewing patterns, but there doesn't seem to be much out there. Any suggestions on budget dresses or sewing patterns?

    You could just choose a dress from a store like Top Shop or Dorothy Perkins, sure it wouldn't be made to measure, but it would probably be cheaper, and more likely to be something they'd enjoy wearing again.

    How much is your budget and what colour are you looking for? Maybe we could help you?

    Coast have a sale on at the moment, so some of their chiffon dresses in certain colours are very reasonable, might be worth a look.

    Not sure what your budget is, but my bridemaid dress for my sister's wedding is from Debenham and was £95 fits perfectly and is beautiful. They do a wide variety of colours ?

    A second vote for Coast. I was in the outlet store at Bicester Village yesterday and they had some amazing reductions. Would be worth a visit to there or somewhere similar if you can make it.

    Try Warehouse! Especially when they have a sale on. I dressed my BMs for £65 each which included dresses, shoes, shawls, jewellery and hair flowers. It can be done on a budget!

    Have you tried looking on Ebay. I ordered 3 made to measure halterneck gowns for £35.99 inc delivery. The blue is gorgeous and makes the pictures pop!
