Has anyone seen what they are charging for J. Crew wedding dresses these days? Regardless of how fine the material is, $3,000 is a bit much for what is still "off the rack." Right? Any thoughts?
How do you try these on before purchasing??? I never see them, or any of their gorgeous dresses on the floor of the stores. JCrew has become very expensive, it seems, especially in light of the current economic stituation.
How many people order a $3,000 dress over the internet? I'm amazed that J. Crew is still in business because they are, for the most part, ridiculously overpriced.
I completely agree. I got my reception dress from jcrew but for $300.
However, the good thing is if you order the dress online and find it's not the one, you can return it at your local store, so you're only out the shipping.
A friend of mine just had to get a bridesmaid dress from there and it was $400 and she said it was total crap! I would not be pleased about that! Just came across your blog. Love the storage places too! I'm hosting a blog giveaway for another few days if you are interested!! www.gleatieanddeaner.blogspot.com
Personally I think Crew has started cutting corners in the quality dept. All the fabric seems a little "less" this season and whenever I pull something over my head while trying on loot there's a slight chemical smell. I 've kept my conspiracy theory confined to just family, til now. Me thinks they are trying to pull the wool over our eyes...
and ps...I wore a Crew wedding dress for me second marriage and it was about $200 and that was only 4 years ago. Suddenly they're to the manor born I guess...

I think you can try on a few of them at the store at Rock. Center in NY. Other than that, I think you just have to work with someone over the phone.
seriously.
