I will be attending a wedding this September as part of the entourage. The bride and groom will be providing the grooms men's barong tagalog (formal wear in the Philippines worn with trousers and plain undershirt), while us bridesmaids will have to get our own in pastel colors of our choosing. We all coordinated so we will not be repeating the same colors and I ended up with light violet or baby lilac.
Now I am short, I am only 5'0". The dresses should be floor length and most of the dresses online are yards too long for me. I tried looking for some dresses locally but they are too expensive for my liking.
A friend suggested to look for ankle length or midi length dresses. I found the one online and true enough the ankle length dress is just the right long dress for me even if I wear heels. I found it in my size so there will be no need for alterations. And the best part is, I paid only $30 for a $120 dress!

Great savings and I bet the dress is pretty!
They're paying for the guys outfits but not the ladies?

@Raine38 oh yes it would cost a lot. Glad you found a color for the wedding to wear and a good deal also! :)
Have a good time at the wedding

That's a bit of luck getting the perfect dress for such a bargain. Sounds like a very pretty color too
