The dress in the picture is too big, so I ordered a smaller size. Unfortunately, even that size was too big on top, and since that doesn’t work with a strapless dress, it had to be returned. I did love the architectural pleating and the warm gray color, but if it doesn’t fit and it’s over $200, it goes back to the store.

After taking it back, I did a little more shopping and found this other Calvin Klein number and bought it at Nordstrom’s big anniversary sale for $80. I really love it in general, but when I looked at the photo later, I looked pregnant. I might have ’wobbly bits’, but they’re generally not in the belly area.

I was thinking of wearing some great yellow heels with it. I just like yellow and purple. Some might say it clashes, but I can only reply that I was born in the ’80s. So, this might become a shower dress, but I’ve already worn it twice (with yellow heels) since I bought it, therefore it’s still a good dress.

In short, the search for a rehearsal dress continues.

How many dresses did you buy before you found the one for your rehearsal dinner? Did you keep most of them, or return them all until you found the one?
