We got invited to a black tie wedding. does this mean I have to buy a fancy dress? long? where? lord and taylor?
Yes, it should be on the fancy side, but no - it does not have to be long. Lord and Taylor has some nice dresses. Jones New York has some nice styles and they are usually not that expensive.
Should be a formal dress. If you're looking for affordable - try Loehmanns or Filene's.
Generally I'd wear a floor length gown for black tie. Especialyl if it's black tie, not black tie optional, but that's just me. For black tie events I actually wear ballgowns. Jessica McClintock has some nice inexpensive stuff, and I also second lord and taylor
I just bought a dress for a black tie optional wedding. Don't laugh but I bought it at Annie Sez! I bought a long black dress (with an a-symmetrical top-one strap) that I plan on dressing up with a nice broach and some earrings. I checked Macy's and Lord and Taylor but didn't find anything!
formal dress yes and i always find gowns/dresses at lord and taylor- or bloomingdales
