Okay so my school has a dance coming up, and we're supposed to wear a dress or a skirt, so like semi-formal i guess. And that would be an easy thing to do, but they have to have straps as wide as your middle and index finger put together. I cannot find ANY dresses online that I like that have straps with a good wide-ness!!! My style is "vintage" "floral" and"tribal" and I like stores like brandy melville and pacsun. pleaseeeeeeeee help me someone and find me an afforable dress online that has straps that are the wideness of your middle and index finger put together!!!!!! whatever you find is great please post the links below!! i love little vintage websites too so if you find any of those please post them!! the dress doesnt have to be from a big chain like nordstroms, and i rather it be from somewhere more unqiue.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING ME :)

Sew wider straps on over the skinny straps. Any sewing supply store - even a Walmart store will have ribbon-like strips of material you can sew over your skinny straps.
Hiya I'm Julie,
Have to tried looking on ebay web site for that dress with wide straps? try this web-site www.shopstyle.co.uk/browse?fts=wide+strap+dress or this one

www.dorothyperkins.com/.../ProductDisplay?.
Above are some web-site links for wide strap dress but I will say when you do find that dress do wear an underskirt/petticoat underneath.

I think something like this is adorable

It has wide enough straps, pretty girly lace at the top and floral print on the bottom
Another option that is so cute is something like this

I am personally obsessed with that dress. It is semi formal and sooo cute. Anther good option is to get a strapless or spaghetti strap dress and wear a plain white cardigan. These can be found at places like target, forever 21, old navy, etc. for very cheap. Here's a good dress to wear one over,

Plus this dress is only $15! So that leaves plenty of money for a cute cardigan. A few other cute school appropriate dresses are some like these
