Re: Im so upset!!!!

Re: Im so upset!!!!

I just cant justify spending $4k on a dress for one day. My FI would kill me!!!!

ETP - Its a Givenchy. I found it for $1700, but there's no way my fat a$$ is fitting into a size 6. Ugh!

Re: Im so upset!!!!

Even if you don't end up getting this, I am sure you will find another that will be THE ONE!

Word of advice: DON'T TRY ON DRESSES WAY OVER YOUR PRICE RANGE

I decided that before I started looking. Knowing me, I'd probably pick one that was 4X my budget

I agree 100% with this statement...I made that mistake in the beginning and TO THIS DAY I keep thinking about that first $5k dress!

Re: Im so upset!!!!

I also agree with the knockoff statement...there HAS to be one somewhere! I will look until I find one.....

Re: Im so upset!!!!

I know how you feel, the 'DREAM' Vera Wang dress 1) no way it will fit..EVER!! 2) No way I am paying 5K for a wedding dress It SUCKS!!!

I agree with the girls only try on dresses in the price range you can afford this way you wont get crazy

Re: Im so upset!!!!

Is it possible to hire someone to replicate the dress for you???

Marisa&Brian Posted: Aug 10, 2004 07:39 PM

Re: Im so upset!!!!

Can you bring the pics to someone and have them make it for you ???

suezboss Posted: Aug 10, 2004 07:59 PM

Re: Im so upset!!!!

try to find the dress on the internet... and a lot of girls use RK bridal in NYC, they ship, and can get MOST designers.. and i've heard there prices are great! (almost at cost)... try them.

Re: Im so upset!!!!

Its beautiful. Maybe someone can make it for you?

Re: Im so upset!!!!

I am sorry. Just pretend you already tried this one on and that it looks awful on you!
But kidding aside, I'm sure you will find something just as great in your price range. Good luck!

Re: Im so upset!!!!

I know the feeling! I found my dream dress but it's in Amsale's Blue label collection & they 'start' at something like $6k an there is no way they make my size. Trust me your dream dress is out there just waiting to be found!

Re: Im so upset!!!!

Diva,

Did you try the bridal garden in NYC. Givenchy has discontinued bridal dresses and they have many. I found one and did not buy it - and I really regret it.
