Re: Would you spend $425 on this dress?
Posted by krwm
nope. I just feel like you could find something similar cheaper. It is pretty though.
Find it for me then...lol I HATE dress shopping and don't have the patience to look.
I saw it in saks last week and it stuck in my head. I should prob try it on and if I still like it.. go from there.
And I like how someone pointed out that it's like spending $140 for a new dress for 3 weddings. I'd have a problem finding 3 dresses that I love.. so why not use $420 to get one that I'll be comfy in.
Thanks everyone!

Not sure where you live, but I often have a hard time finding dresses too. For some reason I always have luck at ABS in Manhasset. I think you could find something in there for a little less (usually around $300). I have 2 dresses from there and ALWAYS get compliments on them! I have worn each dress at LEAST 3 times as well!
Good luck!

Re: Would you spend $425 on this dress?
I hate to spend a lot of money on something but that dress is gorgeous and it something tht I do not think will be out of style anytime soon. If you can wear it to a couple of events right away I think it would be worth the money in the end. How often do you really buy a new dress to go to a wedding in?

Re: Would you spend $425 on this dress?
hell no. It's a beautiful dress but if you really do the research, which I know you can, you can find something similar for way less.

Re: Would you spend $425 on this dress?
The thing is with looking around for a cheaper dress, is I don't think it'll have the same fit and feel as this one. This is 100% silk, and it made well. I truly believe you get what you pay for. I have some other Diane von Fursteinberg pieces and they last, I think this dress would last a lot longer than a cheaper similar one... unless I get lucky and hit a sale!
Watch me try it on and hate it.. then all this back and forth won't even be worth it...lol
Thanks for all your opinions!!

Re: Would you spend $425 on this dress?
I think the dress is gorgeous, however I would not spend that much money on a dress. If I had the money to spend maybe my answer would be different, but I know I don't have an extra $425 for something I will not get a lot of use out of.
