Where can i get a cheap dress that is formal enough to wear to a bar mitzvah?
November 22nd, 2009 | by prom |Chillbear323 asked:
I am going to a bar mitzvah in June and i’ve been searching for a formal dress that i can wear to the ceremony. Though I have been looking, I can’t seem to find one that is in the right price range and that is pretty. Does anyone have any suggestions for a pretty dress, thats under $40.00?

Stores like Joyce Leslie, Mandee, Dress Barn, and similar ones to that all have very pretty dresses that are all under 60-70 dollars.

If you’ve only been shopping in new retail stores, you might want to check out some local thrift stores (like Goodwill) (also called charity shop or hospice shop(UK), thrift shop or thrift store or hospice shop(U.S., Canada), resale shop when not meaning consignment shop (U.S.), or op shop (Australia/NZ, from opportunity shop)). They are not junk stores, a lot of them are very picky about what they will take, quality of available goods has risen greatly in the last few years.
One where I live has some knockout prom/wedding/formal dresses and they’re usually priced $20 or below. Chances are, if you find something there, it’s only been worn once. Try many different places if you don’t find anything you like in the first store you try, I’m sure you’ll find something you like, and it will be priced right.
If you find a consignment shop, they might have something, too, but you will likely be close to or exceed your price range, even there. Good luck!

Check to see if there’s a local Goodwill Boutique – they carry a better quality of used clothing than their Thrift Stores, a bit more expensive, but worth it! I got a gorgeous blue silk dress there for $12, and it still had a price tag on it from Nordstroms for $158!!!
