My search for a modest formal dress to wear to military functions is beginning and my outlook is not at all rosy on the prospect. Has anyone found a site or retailer who has garment friendly formal dresses that don't scream prom dresses
, bridesmaid dress
, or mother of the bride dresses
? In the past I have used a sweater skirt combo, but hubby doesn't think it quite works. He also thinks this should be a relatively easy task. Maybe it is and my pessimism is getting the best of me, but this subject has caused me many a headache in the past. I have found a few that might work, I just cling to the hope that somewhere out there there is someone who recognizes that there are younger LDS women who have to attend formal events who don't want to look like a frumpy old lady or a tiny-boper Laurel off to prom. If you know if such a thing exists, please let me know!
