The costs of Sheath/Column V-neck Short/Mini Taffeta Prom Dress are expensive. Especially when you have to spend more money on shoes, accessories, a hairstyle and much more to perfect the dress.
There is still a way to achieve the perfect look you want and could make the formal dress look like a million dollars though you are on a tight budget. You can save lots of money on buying a formal dress if you follow these six easy ways below.
1. Start your search early
Don’t think you can find a perfect dress in a week (or even less than a week), you may get something you don’t like or improper. If you shop early, you could find better deals and more choices since most of the formal dresses haven’t been sold out. If you don’t want to buy new shoes and accessories, you can choose a formal dress that could match the ones that you have. Be sure to keep in mind that keep everything is under your control. Don’t buy a dress that over your budget or something you don’t need.
2. Shopping online
You can find lots of newest 2011 formal dresses online and most of them are much cheaper than local shops. The most important thing of shopping online is you need to buy your dress ahead of the event date at least 2~3 weeks, so there are enough time to amend the dress if you are not pleased with it. The worst thing of shopping online is you even can’t believe the dress you get is the one you paid for. Be sure to confirm everything is right before you send the payment.
3. Outlets, samples and clearance sales
Most of the boutiques and brand shops have clearance sales, most of them are cheap, and you can get some dresses you like. I usually check the shops. I like and buy the dresses in slack season; it could save me a lot.
4. A second hand gown
If you have any friends or family that have formal evening dresses, consider borrowing one from them. All you will have to do is paying for its dry cleaning fee. You could perhaps even have it alternated to specifically fit you if the person you’re borrowing from says that is alright. If you don’t want to borrow a dress that you can visit thrift or second-hand stores and buy a formal gown. Thrift stores usually have a wide variety of cheap formal dresses to choose from. Don’t be afraid to buy a formal dress you like is too big for you, you can have alterations.
5. Have alterations done
If you have a dress that borrowed from a friend or bought at a thrift store or online shop, and it just didn’t fit quite right, just get the dress altered to fit you. Additionally, if you find a dress you love but need it in a smaller size; you can buy the larger size and have it tailored.
6. DIY – make your own dress.
The most used DIY material is lace, pearls, sequoias and silk flowers. Choose a long dress and add the suitable material on the dress, you will get a unique formal gown that no one else in the world will have one.
Get an affordable formal dress could come true if you follow these ideas.
