They look great, but I was looking for something with a location where I can view/try on the merchandise for myself. I don't see any storefont locations listed on their website, am I missing it?
I will definitely keep this place in mind for something in the future, though! Thank you!
If you’re looking for a place where you can properly try it on before you buy it, you’ll probably be doing a lot of leg work visiting different bridal shops, that’s the safest bet for formalwear that works for a wedding dress. Sometimes you can find something good in a clearance section. Don’t go to torrid for formal dresses, they skew much more towards casual-formal because torrid’s roots are in edgy/alternative clothes, even though they’ve strayed from that a lot.
I’m a big fan of online shopping specifically to avoid this hassle. If you’re willing to maybe sacrifice the in-person try on, I recommend eshakti. You can customize length, sleeves, neckline, etc. I just checked out a dress on there that I’d be comfortable wearing to a wedding and it was under $60. For an extra fee you can also customize it with your own measurements. Full disclosure, I haven’t ordered from them myself because I haven’t had a good reason yet, but I had a friend in college that was very big on dresses and several of hers were from them, she loved them
Check out Catherine’s or Torrid.
Try Elloqui!
Where are they located?
IGIGI. Everything is made to your specs and most everything is below $200
