NWR - Where to find Halloween costumes? (other than party city)

So...FI and I spent a zillion years at a party store today and finally decided on a gangster and flapper for our halloween costumes. I bought tons of flapper accesories, however, i don't have a dress to wear! Any suggestions as to wear I can find something other than party city????
