These 20 Tricks Are A Must-Know When Buying a New Dress
Shopping for a new dress is the dream for any fashionista and shopaholic. But before we get to wearing the gorgeous new gown to a wedding, prom, a black tie ball or a fancy brunch event, there are a few factors you must know for shopping. Make this retail therapy as therapeutic as possible with our top 20 fashion tricks for shopping that new dress!
1. Always Try Before You Buy
This really should be a #1 rule for anything fashion-related. Dresses especially will look very different once you’ve tried it on, in comparison to the hangar or the not-so-realistic mannequin in the shop window.
6. Can You Close It Yourself?
One thing to consider about buying a new dress is knowing if you can close it by yourself. If there’s a zip at the back, can you reach it and zip it all the way up or does it require an extra pair of hands half-way up? If it buttons up at the back, you may need a helping hand every time. Unless you have mastered the jump and tug, don’t try this with a dress you’ve just spend a good bit on.
