I am planning a prank first look on my fiance where his best man will be in a dress. My problem is i am having a hard time finding a plus size dress for this man. At a really cheap rate. Does anyone have any ideas on where to get one. We are currently monitering the goodwills. Or would anyone be willing to sell or let me barrow theirs ?

Thanks in advance i am desperate

    I think you are going to have a hard time finding something much cheaper.

    I hope you get good photo/video, that sounds like it’ll be fun!
    I don’t know if you have enough time for shipping, but you can get really cheap (and usually cheap looking if that matters) wedding dresses on wish.com or the wish app.

    Does it have to be a wedding gown? JCP, Dillard’s and Macy’s had some gowns/dresses for 60-80% off. I don’t know if if that has changed and if they are what we considered wedding dress but it wouldn’t hurt to look if you haven’t.

    Check local thrift stores even if you have to drive to the next town

    This will be so funny! You can also check JJs house or wish. They might fit him. People also sell their used dresses on stillwhite.com. Do you know what size he needs?

    Why does it have to be a dress that fits? I'd find a cheap dress that will "fit" but perhaps not zip up? so it really does look like he tried on your dress. LOL

    That’s fun!!! Since it’s just for a few minutes and a few photos, I would purchase an inexpensive white sheet and wrap it around him in a cute style and maybe pin some lace fabric in certain areas, etc. You can look on YouTube or Google images and find cute ways to make a “dress“ out of a sheet.

    Lulus has pretty dresses that match different budgets. They may have something you can use.

    Contact a local theatre group. They often have donated wedding dresses that they use for shows. I bet they'd let you borrow one for a weekend!
