Non-white dresses? Has anyone bought a non-traditional dress? I went shopping this weekend at a store that caters to wedding, formal, pageant, quinceanera, etc, and came...

David’s Bridal had a Vera wang grey one I tried on that felt bridal to me because it’s a ball gown if that helps? It was definitely grey though not silver. I nearly brought it. There’s probably a pic of it somewhere in my post history. But instead went for a champagne dress with black lace overlay. (Tristyn by Maggie Sottero)

Maybe have a look at etsy and AliExpress but be sure to read Shop and dress reviews and look for many reviews with authentic photos

Silver sounds beautiful and will certainly make an impression! I'm wearing a pink dress (true pink, not blush).

I wore a black wedding dress. I found it at Torrid. I loved the dress. I felt beautiful in the dress. If you want a non-white dress, then get one! Its your day and your dress!

Check out my post history to see my gold dress. I bought online but I did lots of research and although it needs alterations, so would anything I bought in store!

I am having my colorfully-embroidered-black-mesh-over-purple dress custom made by an Etsy designer, Tonena. Yay non-traditional dress colors! There are a bunch of Etsy designers who will work with you on a custom designed gown.

Dillard’s outlet frequently has lots of formal dresses for clearance, and I’ve seen silver there before.

I got a beautiful white and gold dress from Macy's that was intended as a prom dress or quinceanera dress. I really loved it at first, but I'm kind of starting to have some doubts if it suits me. When I start to have dress regret, though, I think about how memorable it will be to have a dress in a different color, and how great the metallic color will look in the sunset. I think a silver one would too!

I ordered from needle and thread, I was able to order the brand through a bigger retailer that offered free returns

David’s bridal has a few options. Otherwise, maybe consider a custom made option, or check on Etsy?

Have you checked out Frock and Frill? They had some really nice silver options. I was also nervous about ordering without trying on first, but I recently got an F&F dress through Atterly, which has a really easy return policy, and the fit was a pleasant surprise.

1861.ca, cocomelody and Adrianna Papell come to mind. Also look for bridesmaid dresses and prom dresses. There's some pretty bridal bridesmaid dresses from azazie and david's bridal.

I immediately thought of this Hayley Paige dress I’m obsessed with but doubt it’s very budget friendly https://images.app.goo.gl/4 wmhJfvkruckZtGE6
