Summer Sample Sale - Yay!

August 2nd, 2007 @ 4:25 pm by Mrs. Eggplant

Any SF bay area brides out there still looking for a gown?

Alexandra Bridal (where I purchased my gown) is having a major sample sale! Here are the details from their website:

END-OF-SUMMER SUPER FLOOR SAMPLE CLEARANCE

Selected couture designer wedding dresses MARKED DOWN TO $500! Savings of up to 90% off their original prices! One week only!

Melissa Sweet :: Priscilla of Boston :: Romona Keveza :: Amy Michelson :: Bonaparte NY :: Palazzo :: Janel Berte :: Domo Adami :: Model Novias :: Richard Tyler

Space is very limited so call or email to schedule your appointment in advance.

From my experience, samples sizes at Alexandra are mostly size 8-10 so if you fall in that size range and you’re looking for a dress, give ’em ring!

Hi Mary,

It totally varies with each designer, but I’ve found that in general, wedding dress sizes run a little small. I’m a 0-2 in street clothes but in wedding dress sizes, I’m a 2-4.

i really wonder why… they should make bridal sizes smaller! :)

8-10 gowns prolly fit a range of 4-8 street size.

Oh, and a seamstress told me that gowns can be altered two sizes down without changing the look/structure of the dress.
