help finding a dress similar to this one?

Oh my lord, OP. Just buy some fabric and get someone who knows how to sew to stitch it up for you. Fabric and labor = $20. Or have a seamstress on Etsy make it for you... more expensive but not $358. Yeesh.

Have you considered A quilted jacket instead? Perhaps paired with a Lonchamps bag?

OP, It's a perfect summer dress! When you walk nothing will sticks to your body it even will add some wind It will keep your bra's straps hidden. What's important it's 100% cotton. And it will look on you fabulous on you. I want that dress too.

Here's what I found that looks similar:

1. Not cotton unfortunately http://www.lordandtaylor.com/eng/womensapparel-dresses-Tie_Dye_Racerback_Dress-lordandtaylor/218010

2. Cotton, but doesn't have a color. Cute though

3. A bit pricey, silk, but pretty http://www.lordandtaylor.com/eng/womensapparel-dresses-Sleeveless_Floral_Print_Silk_Dress-lordandtaylor/209483

check out nordstrom. i agree on the search "tiered sundress." nordstrom might even carry it and you can put it on your wishlist to see when it goes on sale.

You can? Then what am I wearing now?

Touche' (closest I could get to an accent mark). Is this the same person who posted on the Hilary thread that everyone on DCUM is a frump? I also wondered how she has acquired this superpower vision that extends through cyberspace? And why, if she has this superpower, is she slumming with us anyway? Shouldn't she be putting this to work for the benefit of all humankind?

OP, this is what I would suggest too. You should really learn to sew. You would save a ton of money on new clothes and alterations. This dress is a really, really easy pattern too. I would buy the fabric--you get great selection at any fabric store. You should look through the pattern books and purchase a pattern when on sale (a few bucks). Ask the fabric store if they know anyone who would sew it for you--they may offer to do it too for a reasonable price. Summer stuff is very easy to sew.
