But, if you want to be an oh-so-gracious girl and find a compromise, then more power to you. If not, more power to you. Heck, more power to you no matter what!! :) Yeah, prices have gone up here, too. The secret is to go to the very back of stores, and look places where no one else would look. I got my prom dress at Eaton's. No one will ever know the difference. Try Sears or JC Penney or whatever it is you have down there. Another suggestion (and don't laugh ti'll you've heard me out!) is to try... well, we have La Senza or Silk & Satin... the only thing I can think of would be Victoria's Secret in the US. Now wait!! Let me finish before anyone comments!! :) A friend of a friend went in there and bought two very pretty slips or nightdresses or whatever... nothing flimsy or revealing, sewed them together (ie one over the other) and voila! Prom dress! Another friend of mine did the same thing for our formal last week, only she found one nigtdress - long, completely covered, a sort of satiny material - very, very pretty. And if she hadn't told me what it really was, I *never* would have known! Plus, you can find them for like, $40. As for the far away school thing - hey, look at it as an opportunity to make friends! Be the sweet, charming, wonderful person we all know you are and suddenly you'll have a flock of people following you around going "Who is that amazing girl, and where *did* she find that dress?" :) Or you could look at it as an opportunity to convert more people. :) As for making a dress, there's always hope. When I talked to my mom the Wednesday before my formal, my dress was a large pile of cut out pieces.

So Mindy. Lemme share a little story with you. I went to two Senior Proms. One year, I went with a close friend of mine. We decided to go "Casablanca" and I found a gorgeous dress at a vintage costume rental shop. We had a fabulous time. I looked good (if I may say so). What I wore: a vintage blue velvet dress with rhinestone trim, gloves, vintage shoes, elaborate rhinestone choker, two rhinestone bracelets, earrings, and a vintage maribou jacket. How much did I pay? $75 smackers for the entire thing All of it. Jewelry too. Prom Number Two, I decided to go all out. I designed my dress and had a dress maker sew it. I bought feather wings. I had a fresh flower halo made. Yadda yadda. Total cost of ensemble? Ohmigod. Something absurd like (wait a second, lemme add...) somewhere in the neighbourhood of $400. Sick? Yes. Which dress and overall evening was I way happier with? THE FIRST ONE! The moral of the story is this. Great things are to be had for rental. Have I worn my prom dress since the dance? Uh, NO! It was a one night deal. Sad but true. At the rental place, though, I got accessories galore and a huge range of extremely glamourous dresses from which to choose. So go out and find some cool rental shop near you see what you can see.
