I would say 0-200. But if the dress is really beautiful then i may splurge to 300

And when you say ball… what do you mean? Is it a black tie fundraiser?

My recs are: In price range and in person; Lit boutique on Newbury https://litboutique.com/collections/best-dressed-guest-2

Splurge: reformation (also on newbury- $300+)

If you’re willing to gamble, rent the runway is a great option. And shopbop does two day shipping which has saved me in a pinch
