The Bates boutique is a tiny new company with lots of overhead that needs to be covered by sales of a smaller number of dresses. The only way they can eventually make a profit is to sell their dresses for more than $10.

If you click on one of the dresses, it takes you to another screen with the dress plus detailed info. Look at the upper right part of that photo, and you'll see some real small squares. If you click on those small squares, each turns into a new photo showing a different part of the dress, or a side or back view of the dress. Looking at all of the photos of the same dress you can almost picture how you'd look in it, or how the dress would move if you wore it. Maybe they should put a note on the Boutique website about how to find alternate views of the dresses.
