That no one else will be wearing?

I’m very simple so I’m worried that something I might wear for my son’s bar mitzvah is what another person would wear when attending a simcha.

I have plenty of time so I want to do this right. I’m also a very hard size to fit since I’m short and not thin

I like a simple but classy look.
Nothing super elegant.

I live in Lakewood but can drive within an hour or two.
Or I can shop online with free returns.

Where would you recommend I look?

When should I begin looking for a pesach time event? I do not like to wear light colors so I will probably wear something dark but lightweight.

The only way to get something no one else will be wearing is custom…

Another option is to get a nice fitting dress as a base and dress it up.

I’m having trouble assessing how you evaluate classy but not super elegant. I totally understand wanting something unlike others. I really like dress and long jacket combinations. Look on Kaspar.com, Zappos , or even Talbots. Terri Jon also has some nice but expensive options. Personally, I would avoid the frum stores so you’re not wearing what everyone else does. Make an appointment with a personal shopper and go to Nordstrom or Bloomingdale’s. They can help you find clothes for your body type and also have alterations. Mazal tov and good luck.

I just googled. I never heard of them. Is this a new place? What is the approximate price range? Do they have things for older women too?
