    Hi,

    Does anyone know the price range of dessy BM dresses?  Has anyone used them?  What were your thoughts?  I really love some of there dreses and the aubergine and smashing colors.  If you have any pics of them on your girls and know about their cost I'd really love to see/hear!  Thanks!  ;)

    Once again I have to mention an Ebay seller who sells Dessy & After Six (NWT) for a song compared to either Dessy or the bridal shops. They have all sizes ranging from a 0~26 and they ship fast & cheaply. If you're interested,let me know,as I've posted the link several times before.

    I was looking at short/teal length Dessy dresses and they were definitely under $200. I don't remember exactly what they were, but I think the styles I looked at were around $150 (vaires depending on where you buy them).

    Dessy after six is very reasonable-less than $150. The other styles, especially Lela Rose start at 200. After 6 is a good bridesmaids dress for those on a budget and offers a wide variety of styles. However, like other bridesmaids dresses, be ready to spend on alterations. I spent about $60 on Nu Georgette since there are so many layers!!!

    Five years ago, most of their styles were in the $120-$170 range at least for the satin ones.  I'd imagine they are still similar.

    I would check out Smyley's lead - eBay worked out great for me! I bought my Dessy bridesmaid dresses from EBay from a private seller for $50 for all three. They were brand new and had never been worn. I consider myself pretty lucky!

    My girls wore Dessy dresses in Concord and ivory. They were $198 with tax and shipping. I loved them and was very happy with them. My girls loved them too.

    Along these lines... do any of you know what the price "diamonds" on the Dessy Group site mean? I can't find anything online that explains what the code means. Is one diamond equal to one hundred dollars? Two hundred? Fifty dollars? So frustrating... I'd like to find bridesmaid dresses for around $100 to keep it affordable for all my girs... Any help would be great! :)

    not sure exactly what the diamonds represent.  sometimes you can get a better range on brides.com.  i dont think you'll find dessy dresses for 100 or under though :(

    not sure how many dresses you need but you might find some nice dresses under 100 on bluefly.

    I love the Dessy dresses.  We got ours at Amica Bride... www.amicabride.com.  They were $85 less than our local store.  I am wearing an Alfred Sung dress, which I am buying from them for $99.

    I second amicabride.com... I;m waiting for my girls dresses to come in.  They're After Six and are $130 each.  I was quoted $170 at a bridal store locally.  The service has been good too!  I can't wait until they come in!

    My girls are wearing a Dessy After Six dress that we ordered online for $135 (I think - it was something like that).  Find somewhere online to order them from - you'll pay way less than the bridal stores (I think they quoted me $185-$190 for the same dress I found for $135 online).
