<p>Baystate–assuming you live in the Baystate–I’d go with your D to Bloomingdale’s. My Ds have always had good luck finding a special occasion dress there. We’ve found a big selection of semi-formal dresses (formal too). D1 had to wear white for her eighth grade graduation (private, independent school) and we found a very pretty dress at Bloomingdales. If you don’t find anything there, check out Nordstrom.</p>
