One of my alpha class sisters (teeny tiny girl!) ended up buying a children's size 12 white dress for our ceremony--- she looked like a doll in that little white dress!

I remember doing this. There was NOTHING left in any of the stores. Girls were pulling white dresses off the hangers and buying them without trying them on. I needed an inexpensive, white dress which was impossible to find after Labor Day. I bought one that was 2 sizes too big and settled for using safety pins on the dress whenever I had to wear it. Other girls bought their dresses in the sleepwear department. Nothing is cuter than having a ritual dress that looks like a mumu.
