Fox's in Flatbush has beautiful dresses for $40-$50. I saw several purple and some green dresses there. But the biggest size I saw was 16. Not sure if they carry 18. Maybe call and ask?

You can also buy something like this and shorten it to knee length and use the extra matterial to build up the top/make straps....

yeah - the floor length won't be an issue ... but the tight too fitted ... the others do not have my size & it is too high so I would look busty & pregnant - and the middle I tried on something similar the tight pleats make a woman of my size look like a hippo ...

but I really appreciate your time looking Mr. Green

They said they don't have women's sizes at all? That doesn't make any sense... Is this the number you called? 718-645-3620

Have you tried Dressbarn.com. They have 15% off today with the code ALLINFALL. They also have a store in the Erskine Mall (Gateway Center.) That mall also has a Burlington store that has good prices.

yup those are the very same digits

women's sizes usually refers to plus so I think that is what she meant

Sorry. Thought you had access to a car. You can still look at their sites and order online if that is an option.

no luck at fox's or anywhere on king's highway ... although I tried on a stunning teal gown in marshall's - I got my body in it ... yeah it was stretchy so luckily I got out of it too

no worries on the way home got ice cream - treating myself to a very hard day of not fitting into anything Ice cream

Have you tried Burlington Coat Factory? There's one at Atlantic Ave. I once found a really nice wedding outfit there.
