Im uninsipred by blaze today so im asking for your suggestions I was just going to suggest Blaze I was at an Italian mall yesterday, and there was a store called Limited Edition that had really nice dresses. She sells only so many and then the dresses are gone forever....hence the name. The slurl is on my blog ( http://virtual-freebies.blogspot.com)

So uhmm.. would I be tooting my own horn to say take a look at my stuff? Everything is copy/mod- but of course would change perms for you if u need them- as well as if you have an idea you would like to see my take on- holler

Innovations They are on the pricey side but they have some stunning gowns. I know they are transfer because I have given several away as gifts before.

Another consideration for buying gowns, you might want to look on the SLExchange. The great thing about that is if the person you are giving the gift to is registered there, you can send on a gown, regardless of the perms. That way, your recipient gets the perms needed to make adjustments without fear of breaking the gown permanently.

I love Blaze but she has so many blaze dresses it would be my luck she already has the one I pick. Honey thanks ill take a look, limited edition sounds rather fun as a gift esp  Ama i need it for tonight *giggles* Anyway keep them coming with suggestions  Raudf.... i find SLX frustrating if I am just browsing a category as there is sooo much crap to get through. At least TPing i can usually go maybe or no within like 10 seconds

For a special gift, look at Nonna Hedges. I especially like the "Devine Sarah Bernhardt" dress.
I don't know the transfer status of her outfits...you may have to IM her and ask that one be sent.

Nikcy Ree does really good texture work, and has a large selection.

I adore Husky GFX for dresses even if most have a medieval theme. They are so beautifully made. I don't believe they're transferable but I'm sure they do store cards.

My favorites all come from Last Call, but, well... Simone has lovely gowns. Edit: And she's on OnRez, which would help with gifting: http://shop.onrez.com/Simone_Stern

Sparkle Skye Designs - pricey but fabulous, and include lots of mix and match pieces to change the look. Not sure about transfer but most good designers will have a gift option or will be glad to send a copy to the lucky recipient.

Witchy's. Check the room in back for one-of-a-kind outfits.
Some stores will do gifts by special request. You don't get a transferable item, but the store will deliver it directly to the gift recipient.

I see my two favorites have already been mentioned, but I will second them. Nonna Hedges and Innovations. Both are a bit pricey, but very well made and beautiful.

I just came upon a store called Soraya Shan Collection. I do not have any of these yet, but they look nice -- they are Transfer.

At least TPing i can usually go maybe or no within like 10 seconds did you get a chance to look through my formal dresses (and of course if something is no xfer, I can make it transferable or gift it to them for you) all you have to do is ask  (keep that in mind of any place you visit, if you want something in different perms it never hurts to ask) kinda like going to a RL store, and wanting a specific color of something, you would ask a saleslady if they have it and if not would they order it hehe
