Ok so you guys were very successful IDing the other dress Gretchen wore. I have been dying for this dress and have not been able to ID it, so hopefully someone here can! Its the dress she wore to Tamra's dinner party, which is the "Naked Drunk" episode.

Here are a few pictures.

I need to find that dress in time for my class reunion in July!

Hi Ladies...as mentioned in my previous post, I'd love to find that red dress for my upcoming class reunion. I threw caution to the wind, after
an exhausting online search for the dress, and decided to email Gretchen
directly. I emailed her inquiring about the dress and she responded within a day. I'm including her response for all to see as it includes all the details about the dress. Good luck in your search. Here is the email I received from Gretchen:

Hi Ava,
What a big day for you! Of course we all want to look amazing at our reunion! So I completely understand. The only bummer part is that I bought the dress last summer! That is when we film, and therefore I got the dress back then.
I bought it at Bloomingdales and the designer of the dress is by Bari jay and the tag says shimmer. I hope this helps in possibly finding the dress somewhere at this point.
I hope you look great no matter what you find to wear and that you enjoy yourself at the reunion.
Thanks for watching and being a fan! If you want to see me on next season I would suggest e-mailing Bravo at bravotv.com about it. They listen to all those people that e-mail in and that are fans of the show!
Thanks again for being supportive and being such a fan.
Also just as a side note, always remember that no matter what you have on it is all about the confidence level you show that will make you look hot!
Xoxo

I posted it on the Jessicastyle ID thread and got the same response "Shimmer by Bari Jay"

I went to his website and the style is no longer on there. :(

I was lucky enough *Whew* to have found this dress..... I looked for months on Ebay and finally was able to find it in MY size lol...

Just keep looking on Ebay if you do use Ebay at all...

It's a wonderful dress and I've recieved so many compliments on it :)
