Any Ann Taylor Bridesmaids Out There?

I'm considering an Ann Taylor bridesmaid dress for my bridal party. I ordered them online this weekend (they're returnable). I'm still looking at other possibilities, such as Jenny Yoo, but considering I'm three months out at this point I'm kind of itching to get this all settled, plus the Ann Taylor dress was only $140.

Has anyone used Ann Taylor Bridesmaid dresses? Any feedback on your experiences?

Here's a link to the dress I got -- in Pistachio:

I have heard nothing but good things about their bridesmaids dresses, but from what I have read, make sure to order enough dresses, because they faze out their styles often, so if you were to add a bridesmaid or one of your bridesmaids gains/loses a lot of weight, getting a new dress of the same style and color is very difficult.

That's good to know. I actually did just that -- when I was on the site I saw there were BARELY any left in pistachio -- so I ordered several alternate sizes for my bridesmaids in case they don't fit right! For example, they literally had no size 0's and only one size 2 (Two of my bridesmaids are very slender), so I had to order a 4 as well and one of them will just have to get it altered downa size. Hopefully I can figure out the right sizes quickly so I can return the ones I don't need (and let other brides order them!).

If anyone else has any feedback on Ann Taylor dresses please let me know! They are arriving on Wednesday so I'll keep you all posted.

I actually bought three different ones on clearance ($29.99 each!) because they were a classic cut and beautiful colors. This was just for me, not related to anything wedding related, they were perfect for work functions I have often!

I love them! One had to be altered down but you couldn't tell - it did cost about $75 but it was several sizes too big, I only bought it because it was the perfect color (and I trusted the sales girl that it would be a quick cheap fix).

Well, I decided not to go with this designer based on these responses! Thank you ladies! I am going with Jenny Yoo, her dresses are really lovely!
