it depends on where you're planning to wear it. if for a particular special occasion like a wedding, i suggest you buy in department stores like sm and landmark, or in stores like petit monde, shapes, x, etc. i personally don't like splurging too much for weddings since the most you can wear these dresses are twice or thrice lang until the style gets obsolete. hehe. hindi mo talaga sila mauulit-uilit. but if you want something na you can wear to cocktails, special events sa work or something, i suggest you get an lbd from the higher end ones like promod, zara etc. at least yun you can dress it up and mix it up with accessories. and masusulit mo talaga yung presyo. =)
