Recruitment Party Outfits HELP!

Hello all I am the new recruitment chair for Zeta Tau Alpha at Old Dominion University and I was wondering if you all knew where I could order cute skirts, or dresses in bulk for recruitment. I am having trouble finding vendors!
Thank you!

We used to go into J Crew or David's Bridal to order dresses. When we told them we planned on buying that many dresses, they'll always gave us quite a nice discount. J Crew opened the store an hour later than normal one night to let us all come and get fitted and David's Bridal sent someone to the house to take measurements.

If you find a dress in a major catalog that you like or with a big department store like JC Penney, they should be able to accommodate you. Know in advance the general range of sizes (if you have any plus size gals, ordering from some catalogs may be problematic) and CALL to see if customer service can help you. Ask for a discount, and make sure what the return policy is. Feel free to ask for a supervisor. Ordering 100 or so dresses is a big deal and a revenue manager would be pretty annoyed to lose that sale.

And this just occurred to me, but don't some campuses have rules about ordering matching dresses? Just make sure you're not breaking any rules.

Lands' End is a company to look into as they do bulk ordering for companies (you can even get embroidery), and their clothing often comes in misses, plus, and petite sizing for the same item. For the non corporate orders returns are super easy as they can be done at Sears so that's handy as well.
