Try on the dresses at these upscale boutiques to find the dress you want, and to determine the size, but then see if you can't find the same dress on eBay or another website for less. I'm sorry, but I can't imagine spending that much on a dress, no matter what the occassion. I bought my L'Amour dress at a shop in Minneapolis that sells overstocks and discontinued dresses for $499.|||RK Bridal had a very large selection of dresses and many of them were under $1500. They are on 318 W 39th street.
