With that said, here’s where I typically look: -Rent the Runway -Rouje (I found a gorgeous black silk dress with lace trim on the shoulders that I love to wear for semi-formal events) -Reformation (secondhand) (I personally feel their products are overpriced, but damn do I love/hate how well they consistently fit and how I feel in their dresses, so I source mine on Poshmark and Depop) -A.L.C -Doen (secondhand) -Self Portrait -Staud -Nordstrom (general browsing) Answer from __mentionitall__ on reddit.com
