Actually, I think there are pictures from the '80s...
...which none of you shall ever see.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What kind of dresses do you like, Hil and shrift? Me, I'm easy. I want a million dresses that I could wear to weddings. I just don't have a million dollars, nor a million weddings.
I'm flipping through bluefly, and I can see where what's out there probably doesn't match either of your dress codes.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm flipping through bluefly
Ha! Me too -- it's my automatic response to someone online saying they just bought a dress.

I like whiskey AND pink - not mutually exclusive. ex-cigarette and gas (diesel) purchaser. Can't sync up on the comics though.
non-ruffley, pleated or horridly colored 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
but the stuff out there in general is pretty scary - lots of shredded looking hems.

But really, just ruling out the ugly stuff was a good half the store.)
Also, there's a lot of stealth fug out there right now. You know, when you see what looks like a nice black dress hanging and then you pull it off the rack and find that there's bright blue and blaze orange appliqued kittens or some shit all down the front.

Mostly, what I was going for was something that was a) not floral, b) not overly ruffly, c) not fluorescent, and d) wouldn't require me to buy feat-of-engineering-underwear.
Am now flipping through Bluefly. But I have the feeling I'll end up buying a suit and just wearing a cleavagey slutbomb shirt to make it festive.

I'm a ragged hem fan myself.
This needs a home, though I suspect with neither Hil nor Shrift.
Erinaceous says not to wear black to weddings. Me, I'm not so traditional, and would wear this if I knew the bride didn't care.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My "not ugly" requirements were not too many sequins, no huge flowers, not flourescent, and couldn't possibly be mistaken for a Lilly Pulitzer. (Lilly Pulitzers are fine in their place. The "Special Occaision Dresses" section of a department store is not it.)
