I've checked out mint velvet, fever, joules, john lewis, debenhams, house of fraser and al the brands within the department stores, monsoon..

the bride to be would like us to wear red, style wise she's not too fussed, however i have huuuge droopy boobs Blush so asked if dresses can have 'proper' straps, rather than sleeveless with a token gesture of a shoelace strap to cater for my construction like bras Grin, I'm short, brunette and about six=ze 16, the other bridesmaid is shortish, about a size 10 and blonde, oooh I am so probably going to look like a binman whatever I wear Grin

I adored this one:
www.monsoon.co.uk/new-dresses/erin-dress/invt/85319237/

and we've found this one might have potential www.marksandspencer.com/Autograph-V-Neck-Button-Back-Dress/dp/B0048AVOJ4?ie=UTF8&ref=sr_1_17&nodeId=192501031&sr=1-17&qid=1301172620

but I'm not very good at locating smaller brands or sites that could be useful.. any one can help?

Have you looked at Style Shake where you can design your own?

//www.styleshake.com

Then you could all pick the same fabric and length but have different styles.

I can't get on it at the mo either, it is worth a look though Smile

BHS has a pretty good wedding shop too, as untrendy as it may sound.

I second the Alfred Angelo recommendation, reasonably priced, wide range of colours and styles to suit all bridesmaids
