debs dresses in dublin

keevita

a lady in my office has a daughter who is going to a debs soon. anybody know a good place to get resonably priced debs dresses around the city?

Is she from Limerick? Try big and Tall.

You don't want to buy your dress in Dublin if its a Dublin debs... what if she runs into someone wearing the same dress???

Try 'Venus Designs' in Blackrock Co. Louth, Just 45 mins down the m1, alot of French Gowns and hand made Irish designer 'Purple Peach' ... they where in image magazine not so long ago. Its very luxurious (the service and dressing rooms etc) but reasonably priced.

The dresses are very unusual. It has alot of jewellery to match too ... mostly for evening wear.

the debs is in limerick, less chance of someone having the same dress if she bought it in dublin. thanks for the advice klodax. joejoem- ????

TK Maxx may be worth a shot. If you go in when they have a new shipment in you may be in luck and everything is way cheaper than it used to be. In all fairness the fashion for debs does not change that much each year so "last seasons" dresses shouldn't be that different. Only difference will be the huge drop in price.

Julien in Stephen's Green centre

About 8 ppl at my debs went to roccoco and ended up all wearing wither the exact same dress or some variation on it.

Roccoco is alright but the same dress(even colour) happened at my debs

Debenhams do some lovely evening wear dresses.

I'm going to a debs in September, but I don't want a 'normal' debs dress, anyone know anywhere that sells 'older' styled dresses(think anything from the Victorian to 1940's eras)?

Try Jenny Vender just behind Powescourt TownHouse. Also try second hand shops.

1920's will be in fashion soon so ya might get something in the high street.
