Bridesmaid dresses

[Emma09]

Im bridesmaid in a wedding in April, need to find my own dress.
Can anyone give me any recommendations of some good bridesmaid/evening wear shops?

TIA

We got mine from Myer.

Sydney Road has all teh bridal shops though if you are after a true bridesmaids dress...what kind of wedding it it?

Thanks LS!
It's a beach wedding in QLD.
The specifications are black and knee length.
I suspect I'm looking for more of a ****tail dress rather than a bridesmaid dress.

My friend was very happy with the ones she got from ebay/China - she picked the dress, sent in all the measurements, and everything was perfect! And a lot cheaper than anything here. But make sure you find a reputable one if you decide to go down that route, because it's not as easy as going to Fair Trade if you have a problem

ETA - You could also look at catalogues, like UCW or Postie. From the sounds of it they might have something perfect if it's a beach wedding

Yep, I would try Myer and DJs first then, we got some gorgeous black ones for my wedding.

The other thing is ModCloth, and if you want something a bit more special, check out a custom from Dig For Victory on Etsy, she is in the UK, but makes AMAZING dresses from vintage patterns and fabrics.

Or Hellpixie, she's AWESOME! Just ask Rouge, Trav and Sarah

I got my bridesmaids dresses from Crossroads for $8 each

Knee length black and white dresses that flattered both ladies.

Target has some nice dresses that don't look like they come from target

Or as others have suggested: myer, dj's, a chain store called "ever after" has very pretty dresses and another is jacqui-e.

Good luck!

Myers or DJ as others have said.
Spurling Bridal in Essendon
Noni B used to have lots of bridesmaids dresses

Look up the web site MrK they have lots of awesome dresses.

daniela's - great great dresses that I got for my bridesmaids - had so many comments about them!

they have a few shops - one at bridge road, and another at southland - I'm not sure where up your way, but there are a few locations so if you look them up there should be one closer I would think.

good luck!

ps. they are more like evening wear than bridesmaid dresses....

That's where my sister's and I got our bridesmaids dresses for our sister's wedding....gorgeous dresses there! start in small sizes up to 24 I think?

Lots of the bridal websites have sections for bridesmaid dresses, you could have a look on there and get an idea of what you like, then you could go to a dressmaker to make something similar and tailored to you! That is what I did for my wedding and for other peoples weddings that I have been bridesmaid for. I also would try DJ's, Myer and shops like Green with Envy - they often have gorgeous stuff. The wedding I was in last year we found our silk dresses at Sportsgirl of all places!

when I got married, we got bridesmaid dresses from Green With Envy. My sister in law got married recently and her bridesmaids chose a beautiful dress from chain store Forever New

[buffy1]

Agree re: Forever New.

You could also try Events (have had two lots of good BM dresses from there), Cue, Seduce, Jigsaw or Review (exxy but oh my lord, so many pretty dresses!).

Happy hunting!

Try Ravish in Burwood.

[Beach Mama]

Try Sasha Drake too - some gorgeous stuff for all sizes!

[myturn]

Try Ravish in Burwood.

oh yes!! or knox.... my mum got MOB dress there - it looked awesome

[RhiChiChi]

^^ Knox shop closed In November - that is where I originally ordered mine from and then had to pick it up at their Armadale store b/c Burwood wasn't opened then!
