With so many overseas online shops popping up everywhere offering ball dresses at hugely reduced prices to what can be bought locally, many girls are now starting to look online to buy their dream ball dress to save money.
I am all for technology, and saving money, however I would purchase a online with caution.
With ball gowns being sold for as little as $50 online plus postage there is no wonder girls are tempted to purchase and ball dress this way and take a risk.
Before jumping in and buying a online I would recommend considering the following;
What is the returns policy?
What is the cost to return?
The colour on the dress on your computer screen will vary significantly from what you receive
The dress may not fit and need altering
The style may not suit you
The colour man not suit you
There are no registries kept for dresses purchased online so you may find other girls wearing the same dress to your ball. You might think this is highly unlikely, however, currently there are many businesses online advertising the same dresses so it is more likely than you think.
Ordering early to allow time for possible alterations, return and exchange of size or if you don't like the dress at all and want to find something else.
What guarantees are given on craftsmanship
There are so many options today for girls to purchase ball gowns with buying new, second hand or hiring ball gowns I would recommend sourcing these options first before purchasing the unknown online.
