I'm needing to help 2 of my girls find an inexpensive dress that she and i both like, and it HAS to be under $70, and 70 is pushing it! Both girls have a VERY limited income, and i want to try and make it so they don't break the bank when they get their dresses. I have looked all over amazon and found a few dresses that are cute, but the listing is a bit sketchy (bad photoshop, sizes that only go up to xxl and aren't in numbers, etc.). i've also looked at jj's house, cocomelody, azazie, and a two other websites i've never heard of that literally only go up to size 10 and size 14. those sites made me mad, but that's a different story.

Both girls are size 18, i need a dress in Plum and a dress in Mint.

Azazie has several that are around that price, including "ready to ship" ones for 50. The styles, sizes and colors can be limited though. I got my MOH"s on the site. My bridesmaid got her dress on Torrid.com for 44 dollars in the clearance section. It was actually part of their wedding collection. Not a ton of colors either though.

Have you tried Ross or TJ Maxx? Or any of the major department stores? If you're only looking to match certain colors, you might have luck there. Macy's, Nordstrom, JC Penney, even Kohl's may have something that will work. You could do a quick online search, then hit the stores.

My girls all got their dresses online and all under $75! We shopped at Toby, Pink Lilly, & Lulu's! I highly reccommend Lulu's! They have a TON of options - & were fairly size inclusive.

Other places I would suggest would be Forever21, Torrid, ASOS, & JcPenney.

Even check out PoshMark! They have great affordable stuff!

Birdy Grey has a couple of styles on sale for $70 that come in a mint shade. David's bridal also has ~100 dresses listed under $70 in various shades. Have you thought of Rent the Runway? They have tons of nice dresses at a low cost that are typically worth much more.
Good luck!

If it’s in your budget, I’d just pick whatever you want and pay the difference for your maids so their price is $70.

I've bought a few lovely dresses from Amazon. Definitely check out the reviews though. I have some that look like I bought them in high end boutiques and have worn them for formal occasions.

I think I am going to have my bridesmaids order from Ever Pretty on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/node/5307647011?_encoding=UTF8&field-lbr_brands_browse-bin=Ever-Pretty&ref_=mh_bl_sl_ap_ap_mw_5307647011
I ordered a test dress and was really pleased with how it looked, purple was a deep purple and sizing followed the measurements posted. It was also easy to return.
