Reviewing: David's Bridal Not Sure No Longer Sold
Purchased at: David's Bridal     Price: $125.00 USD

I should say that I am not a big fan of bridemaids dresses.In fact, I didn't have bridesmaids at my wedding because I wanted all of my friends to relax and have a good time.That being said, I was a bridesmaid in a wedding, and she used David's Bridal separates for her bridesmaids.

I do like the convenience factor of using David's Bridal - I was in a different state at the time, and just had to go to my local store to take care of things.The price was also reasonable, but I have to say that the dress left some things to be desired!

The color was a weird shade of purple, but it did match the other dresses.It worked well for the other ladies with lighter skin tones, but was just not a good color for me.The style also did not suit me well, since I am fairly tall.Again, it worked well for the rest of the bridesmaids - 3 people out of 4 isn't bad!That being said, these sorts of thing are more a matter of personal opinion.

The worst part for me was the material and the construction quality.I got a horrible rash while having it fitted (the dress was only on for about 10 minutes).I had it dry-cleaned prior to the wedding, and thankfully I didn't have any issues.Still, you should be able to try on a dress without having that bad of a reaction (I don't have extremely sensitive skin).

Also, the zipper broke on my skirt the day of the wedding - it wasn't a size issue, it was just poorly made.

All in all, I am not sure if I would recommend David's Bridal or not.None of the other bridesmaids had any issues that I know of - I think I might have been an isolated incident.

Bless your heart, a terrible rash and a broken zipper? Hardly the things dreams are made of. LOL! Sorry this was such a bad experience for you.

Oh goodness-you had a broken zipper on your dress?! I now see why you didn't have bridesmaids at your wedding!

Yikes. Bridesmaid dresses can be pretty awful. Too bad about the quality issues.
