Honestly, the number of times i dont think of macys first then get last minute guest dress for reasonable prices there is wild. If you're US based. I've done well at tj maxx and marshalls. Though that can be area dependent. Otherwise lulus, nordstrom, Karen millen ((though a bit more expensive on the expensive) hello molly, asos, oh polly, abercrombie is a good option, sometimes you can get lucky on revolve- they have some good options under $200 but def on the trendier side I'll try and think of more places. But I'd start with macys, abercrombie, lulus and nordstrom More on reddit.com

Look at Lulu's, ASOS, and Unique Vintage. The clearance section at Nordstrom Rack sometimes has amazing stuff. I found several last time I was there, and if you catch them during their seasonal clearance, you can get an additional 60% off. (Plus they have great shoes in clearance too.) More on reddit.com

Poshmark and ThredUp are online thrift/consignment stores. I’ve gotten some really nice mid level designer dresses on there for cheap! More on reddit.com
