Evening Dress
Pretty dresses have been an obsession of women of every generation for centuries. In the '20s, women fell in love with the fringed flapper dress. In the '30s, silky crepe styles were all the rage. Dresses with full crinoline enhanced skirts dominated the '50s. Flower power took over '60s and '70 fashions, including bohemian style sundresses. Since that time, dresses of all silhouettes and fabrics have maintained popularity, grabbing styles from previous eras and calling them retro looks. There are several places available to find pretty dresses of all types.
Department Stores
Chic boutiques offer pretty dresses, but their selections are usually small. Department stores provide large selections from which you can be sure to find a pretty dress that suits your style and taste. Many top designers have started designing lines exclusively for department stores. Most stores have websites as well, where you can browse, and order from the comfort of your home. Purchases are usually shipped in a few days with rush delivery almost always an option.
Vintage
Thrift stores and consignment shops are wonderful places to find unique retro dresses from every era. Your best bet is to search through every rack in these stores, because you never know where a hidden treasure may be waiting. Setting aside an entire day to hunt for one-of-a-kind pretty dresses is also a good idea, as shopping here can be time-consuming, but the rewards are well worth it.
Discount Chains
Chains such as Marshalls, T.J. Maxx and even Target all serve as excellent resources for trendy, pretty dresses at reasonable prices. Tracy Feith and several other designers have created lines just for Target. Marshalls and T.J. Maxx have deals with designers and department stores in place allowing them to offer pretty dresses, and matching accessories as well, at discounted rates
