    Where in town (Dublin) can you find dresses?

    I had a look in most shops on Grafton street yesterday and there don't seem to be any! Okay, the odd place had a few but wouldn't there be more coming up to Valentine's day? Also the few I saw were navy or black and I'm looking for a brighter colour, preferably red or pink for Valentine's day..

    Any ideas?

    EDIT: I have a budget of about 50-80 euro..

    Oh right, thanks Miss o.

    I know the shop you're talking about. I didn't have a look there but I generally don't see anything I like in it. I'll have a look nonetheless, thanks.

    Julian tends to be very expensive, just to let ya know.
    dont think you'd find much in the 50-80e range there

    Do you want a shortish classy kinda dress or a debs looking dress?
    I go to Christmas balls every year and get debs dresses from Debenhams and some shop at the end of Grafton street has lots of dresses but there mainly debs dresses. But if you are looking for just normal but a bit fancy dresses I would go to Debenhams,you have the debut section which has ball gowns but also lots of shortish classy dresses and you also have all the different designers there with all different dresses! So basically all that I'm saying is that you should try debenhams in the jervis shopping centre thats were I get all my dresses. I get all my valentines day disco dresses there!

    Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll have a look and see what I can find.

    Apple Gal - What kinda prices do Debenhams have?

    Some dresses Ive seen have been a couple of hundered but they are debs dresses but they are always having sales especially in the dresses bit and you can usually get a nice dress for about 70. My last dress I got there only cost 50! Some of the dresses are expensive but you will find a nice cheap one! ;)

    Does anyone have any pictures of nice dresses? I never know what to look for. I have one patterned wrap dress that's blue and green and my debs dress for next September(I found the perfect one for £55 so couldn't resist!) and that's all my dresses. I'm more a skirt kinda girl but feel like being adventurous.

    I just realised how vague I was being! I just want to know what kind of a dress you would wear for a dinner out or to a party. Nothing too formal but not too casual either. I never really know what to wear dress wise in that kind of a situation so tend to stick to my usual items. I'd really love a nice dress for parties though.

    Hrm, the name of that shop alone would suggest they'd have very little in the 50 - 80 Euro price range.

    I think I've looked in every clothes shop on Henry St, Ilac Centre, Jervis St, Grafton St, Stephen's Green shopping centre... I still haven't found anything suitable! I saw a few nice dresses but they were either the wrong size or the material was too skin catching..

    I would love a dress! I was tired today and was just frustated that I couldn't find anything so many I missed something while not paying attention??

    Anymore suggestions would be really great, thanks.
