Where to buy a gown off the rack...

I need to get a gown for a black tie OPTIONAL wedding in October. Where can I get a gown that I dont need to ORDER? there's not enough time!

(anywhere online would be helpful also!)
TIA

I like 2 or 3.. don't really like 1.

I like #3.
#1 is not my taste at all and #2 is nice but not for an october wedding - JMO

I agree about the pink.. not good for October.
Is the black one too 'daring'?

Well pink plus the second one is like calf legnth.

I dont think the black one is too daring I think its really elegant and classy.

I have to remember that I will be an old married lady by the time this wedding comes along. I can get away with a more 'mature' dress now! LOL

Man, I am going to be 29 soon and I still feel like a teenager dressing up.

I like 3 as well- Bloomingdales & Nordstroms have great formal wear.

Definitely ABS in Greenvale. THe dresses are really reasonably priced and they always have a very large selection. I have bought a ton of dresses there over the years. In fact, I bought a second wedding gown there to change into for my wedding.
