SongbirdHollow November 9, 2019 Share November 9, 2019 I thought I’d start a thread about the business venture. I predicted when it was first announced that they’d have great success and I think they have. But every single one of these dresses is sewn crooked! Here’s the latest and worst offender.

JessDVD November 9, 2019 Share November 9, 2019 Is that maternity? The way the skirt is sewn makes it look like it's supposed to be worn over a baby bump. Or it's just crooked.... 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5737196
floridamom November 9, 2019 Share November 9, 2019 The worst thing about these Bates Sisters' dresses is that they are cheap dresses. You can tell from the way the cheap fabric 'hangs'. It will not keep it's shape and will stretch over time becoming just too long to wear. I also am not a fan of combining patterns that just don't go together. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5737934
Temperance November 9, 2019 Share November 9, 2019 There's a young woman I don't recognize modeling "The Alice" dress. There seem to be two models for that dress. One is Katie? Bates and the other is a woman I've never seen before. Any idea who she is? Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5738740
Sew Sumi November 9, 2019 Share November 9, 2019 Is it Chaney (tall, light brown hair)? She's modeled for them before. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5738794

Bessiesue November 11, 2019 Share November 11, 2019 This is the best I have seen Kelly Jo look in a long time. Agree about the outfits looking cheap looking, but my daughter-in-law and all of her friends have all jumped into the vat of these "modest" dresses. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5742096
SongbirdHollow November 11, 2019 Author Share November 11, 2019 All of the Bates, including Kelly, are quite beautiful. I’m sure that doesn’t hurt sales. The photos are very professional even if the dresses look cheap. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5742239
Sew Sumi November 11, 2019 Share November 11, 2019 That picture gives a glimpse of what Kelly would look like with shorter hair. She definitely needs to cut off about six inches. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5742924
Tikichick November 12, 2019 Share November 12, 2019 Looking at the pictures of the dresses it makes me think of the cheap, knit dresses you pick up for your kids for summer and don't mind if they throw them on over a wet swimsuit at the beach or the pool. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5745217

65mickey November 23, 2019 Share November 23, 2019 90% of these dresses have an empire waist and look like they are designed for a pregnant woman. Other than one or two dresses and a few skirts they are marketing to pregnant women. They are all obsessed with pregnancy. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5770263

I've also noticed that even when wearing heels, their maxi dresses are always dragging on the ground. Nobody's going to spend money hemming a cheap dress, so you probably wouldn't get more than a season out of it before the bottom got stained and torn up. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/104043-bates-sisters-boutique/#findComment-5770660

So according to Keeping Up With Fundies Tumblr, this young woman is Alana. They replied to someone who asked about her. "Her name is Alana, and she has a boyfriend who is not one of the Bates boys. We’re totally all on guard for which new girls are modeling in the BSB pictures because Chaney did so early on, but in this case, she’s just a friend of the sisters."

trimthatfat December 30, 2019 Share December 30, 2019 It looks like they've purchased some of these dresses from AliExpress for dirt cheap.
