Ladies! Where do you buy your evening gowns?

[royalcruz]

I bought my last few gowns on clearance at Neiman Marcus and Saks. I also just bought a cocktail dress on Ruelala.com.

My evening gowns are tired and I want to get a few new ones. Just recently moved to St. Louis, and I don't know where to begin looking. Where do you shop for yours?

 

dont know if this has been mentioned yet, havent read the whole thread:

I ALWAYS shop at a store called Deb. Its more like a juniors store, but being 25 they still work for me. In thier sale section you can get gorgeous fun formal dresses for WAY cheap! I got my last few for like $9, $16, etc! I never break $20!

 

here is the store locator:

I have always shopped at DEB. But this year the selection seems to be very "Prom" and not many evening gowns.

I love Spiegel, Newport News, and Nordstrom (great for plus sizes). Don't forget to check out Ebay. Surprisingly, I got this cocktail dress on Ebay for $9 :eek:. Size 12. :D

St. Louis? How about the outlet mall at St. Charles?

 

I have gone on Coldwater Creek outlet and they sometimes have good deals.

I usually find my stuff at Dillards. A couple of times I have found nice dresses/formal tops at Ross. Back in the fall, I bought a formal top at Ross for $30. The same exact top was at Dillards for $90. Last week I saw it on clearance at Dillards for $27.99, but I have mine for 4 months.

Dillards has a huge dress dept, and lots of gowns and cocktail dresses in juniors too (with really low backs that I can't wear). They used to have more selections in petite too but they are scarce these days.

I've found some terrific buys at a couple of Dillard's stores in the past few days. There were formal tops for $15, and I got a Cachet formal marked down from $200 to $54! The Nordstrom's I went to had very little on sale.

Believe it or not...try Sears. They had some really nice dresses here in Orlando. I'm a thrift store shopper so I checked them 1st.

Got a great dress at Goodwill for $11 and a black cocktail dress at Ross for $20.
