Attn: GC Fashionistas! I need your help!

My company has an annual big conference type thing that lasts about a week.

It's coming up.

Very quickly. (As in less than a month)

I need a DRESS! Preferrably a black cocktail dress with an A-line silhouette that's not sleeveless. (at least some type of strap is preferred)

I'm not a fan of clingy fabrics like matte jersey.

Please help?

I'm desperate! I've scoured the malls to no avail.

Have you taken a look at the dresses on bluefly.com? Nice designer stuff, reasonable prices (for the most part). The shipping time is relatively fast. The only problem I've ever had with them is that you may find the perfect dress, but they may not have the size you need.
