my fsil found this dress in a magazine 6 MONTHS AGO, and said it was made for me. she showed me the magazine and i agreed. it looks like the perfect dress for me.
i went on the designer's website and got the style number. i called every store that carries his designs in long island and manhattan. NO ONE HAS THIS DRESS!!
the only place that did have it, had it in a size 28W. i'm a size 8.
i don't want to order it unless i know what it will look like on me first. i tried on other dresses but i just keep thinking about this one.
what to do?!

Re: ugg!! i'll never find my dress...
awww you girls are so cute.
first of all, the dress is an alfred angelo.
i used the store locator on the website and i called around 22 stores in long island and manhattan, all of the stores from here to there which are listed as selling AA.
i called the alfred customer service months ago, and they gave me a few places who were listed as havng recently stocked the dress. but when i called those stores, they no longer had it in.
i called alfred again today and asked, but the woman told me that even if she gives me the names of stores who are listed as having it in stock, it is near impossible who will still have it in their stores today.
should i try calling all 22 stores again? will they think i'm the most annoying person ever?

Try Phyllis at Bridal Elegance. She carries Alfred Angelo and she will order anything for you.

Re: ugg!! i'll never find my dress...
i would at least try the size you found it in.they will clip you in real good so you can have a better idea..unless you find someone to order a sample for you..a lot of stores will do that

Re: ugg!! i'll never find my dress...
I LOVE that dress! have you tried wedding center? I know they have a lot of alfred angelo dresses. I also know they have some bad reviews but it's worth a shot! If not, maybe they have an alfred angelo dress that is similar that you can try on just for size. That dress was in so many bridal magazines, it's so weird that it would be so hard to find.

Re: ugg!! i'll never find my dress...
Some bridal shops will order a dress to add to their collection, but since pink is not a popular color it may be the issue. Have you looked into any of the shops having the same dress in white/ivory? This way you can at least try the style.

I am so obsessed with pink too, I mean it's almost to the point of ridiculous. I LOVE that dress, I think it's beautiful!
I hope you find it, I really do! But maybe you can take a look at the other dresses in the other colors and order them in pink. Good luck!!

Re: ugg!! i'll never find my dress...
that was the dress I wanted for a long time. Wedding center in commack does carry that dress, AA 1797. I tried it on. Not sure what sizes they have it in but you can at least try it on to get the feel. If you like it they can order it in your size.
