They did not have my size! I went to Estelle's and found a beautiful MoriLee dress that I loved, but it was a size 12! I tried it on and the saleswomen pulled about a foot of fabric from the back to make it fit me. It looked great but they could not order a 4 for me Apparently they could only get an 8 and that could take three to six weeks. My wedding is September 13th (THIS YEAR). They wanted me to buy the 12 and alter it. I'm a size 4! I don't think that would work. it would cost me more in alterations that the actuallu dress!
Why did I wait so long????
Anyone know where I can get a MoriLee dress online fairly quickly???
Thank you!!!
Christine

Re: Help!! I found my dress...but.....
you could try netbride.com. not sure if they'll be able to get it that fast, but i think they carry that line.

Re: Help!! I found my dress...but.....
i had the same problem. i have a dressy affair sept. 13 and couldnt find a dress and when i did, they didnt have my size so they would have to order it and obviosly not in time. what i did, was look up the manufacturer on line and then go to store locator and called every place asking if they had my size. after about 13 stores- one finally had it in my size. just call the stores with the style # and size and they will check it out for you. im sure a store has your dress in your size!

Are you a NORMAL size 4 or a wedding dress size 4? Wedding dress size numbers run 2 sizes bigger than your 'actual size'. See if maybe you can get it in an 8

I tried on an 8 in a different style and it was way too big.
I'm a normal size 2, so the sales lady said I could go with a 4 or a 6.
I sent some requests to online sites:
bridaldiscounters.com and netbride.com. No responses yet

Teacher....get the dress 1 or 2 sizes BIGGER...wedding gowns run small!! I'm glad you found a dress you like!
I took everyones suggestions and I went on the Mori Lee website and searched locations. I came up with 17 locations in LI. I started calling and came to Centerach Bridal and they called and are able to get me a size 4, by next week because they have it in stock (just not on site)!
I am so happy!!!
Thanks ladies for all your suggestions!

I was NOT happy with Centerach bridal suite. The girl took measuremnts that were 5 inches too big. Im a size 8/10, and she ordered me a 16 And they had the nerve to charge me the max for alterations. This was for a BM dress
