Tall BM dresses help pls

What about getting lace or some sort of fringing, beading etc to go around the hem & add a few inches? You could cut off a few inches of the shorter girls dress, then leave the longer ones as are then add the extra length to all of them.

Keep an eye out on Long Tall Sally. They're really good for tall women and tend to have offers on a lot (and really good sales).

Just had a quick look on there and although there's not much on there at the moment, it's worth keeping an eye on after Xmas, when they get their new stuff in.

HTH

Will do thanks. I had looked and thought there wasnt much on there so will keep an eye now!!

Thanks I dont think that would work with the coast ones as they are very chiffon and floaty but may well be the way to go with so others so will keep this on mind thanks

My sister is 5ft 11 and my other bridesmaid is 5ft 4. My only option was bridal shops and my budget didn't stretch to the 200+ cost of most but I found Forever Yours dresses a bit cheaper, A long chiffon dress was £149 I then (only just) needed extra length added to my sisters dress which cost £30. Tbh I think you will struggle to find dresses long enough on the high street, I know I do at 5ft 8!

Honestly... I think you'll struggle. I'm 6'1" so I speak from experience, and if you intend for them to wear heels as well I think you'd be better having them made, this is what we've done and it's been around the same price that you'd pay for a dress in coast.

Ive had maxi dresses from new look and Dotty Ps they have a tall section, next long sizes are never long enough. Zara is also quite long length.

I've never bought anything in long tall Sally because I think it's all a bit anne-twacky.

Coast is never long enough and and neither are the dresses in Debenhams.

I'd look into having them made, then you can specify fabric, design etc.

Are you looking specifically for full length dresses? If not then what about getting standard full length ones and then shortern them to knee/tea length, that way you can tailor for each of them, you'd have to pay a little for the alterations but it would give you more choice on the high st which might balance that out.

Or, have you asked them where they normally buy from? Since they are the tall ones they will have the benefit of previous experience!

Thanks for all your help think we will go down the made to measure option!! Thanks again

I am having the same problem with my BM's but i got my dress from Berketex and they have a bridesmaids dress designer called EMily Fox who does gowns in loads of different colours, loads of different sizes and to suit different shapes so have a look at booking an appointment there as they were really helpful with fitting my BM's into their gowns ?

Do they have to be long? You'd have less of a problem with tea length/knee length dresses. When I was BM for my sister, we were 5'8, 5'10 and 5'2 and all managed to get the same dress and the shorter girl had hers shortened.

We are loking for blue but quite flexible on the shade, but both girls want long and thats fine by me. They have been very good to me and if they feel happier in long then I am happy to give them that.

Thaks for all of the advise guys. ?
