Your Questions About Betsey Johnson
Betty asks…
Designers like Betsey Johnson!!?
i am beginning to look for a prom dress and i really want something unique. i am only 5 ft 2 and am around a size 2 or 4 so i think i’d look better in a shorter dress rather than a gown. i love color and vibrant patterns…basically anything that pops! betsey johnson is one of my absolute favorite designers and i was wondering if anyone knew of designers similar to her with cute dresses? (i’d like to stay under $300 about) thanks in advance!!!
admin answers:
I know of a few great brands for short prom dresses. Some are similar to Betsey Johnson and others are unique in their own right. Especially similar to Betsey (with the flared skirts, sequins, etc) are Aqua by Bloomingdales, ABS (some styles), and Sue Wong.
ABS by Allen Schwartz is a popular choice for prom/dance dresses.

BCBGMaxazria often has a lot of great dresses, especially if you check Dillard’s. I’ve gotten a few short BCBG dresses for $70 (retail $200-300) during their sales! Be careful though, because some of their dresses are tacky lol. But if you find the right ones, they are GORGEOUS. Here’s their entire dress section on Bloomingdales (which usually has good price compared to BCBG on Saks, etc):

Some of the short ones are really cute!

Hope that helps! If you want an actual Betsey Johnson though, I've seen a ton on eBay for less than $300. I don't know how the sellers get them for so cheap, but they seem authentic. You probably want to size up to a 4 though – I hear that they run small.

Hope that helps! Good luck. 🙂 I'm about the same size as you so I agree that a shorter dress would be better than a gown.

John asks…
Where can I find a Betsey Johnson umbrella?
admin answers:
*the betsey johnson retail stores no longer carry umbrellas. They stopped about a year and a half ago. I think your best bet would be on ebay. The only listing i found on ebay was this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Betsey-Johnson-Handbag-Jewelry-set-diamond-umbrella-set_W0QQitemZ150156644168QQihZ005QQcategoryZ63852QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247
which i think is ridiculously priced because each piece was priced around $40. Just keep checking on ebay and i’m sure something will pop up.

I love Betsey Johnson, too! She is a great designer. I don’t think anything is going to be quite as great as hers.
