dreaming of dresses

What does it mean to dream of a dress? Well, thanks to Zolar's Encyclopedia and Dictionary of Dreams, you can find out. (Have I mentioned lately how much I adore Google Print?)

receiving a dress: you will be helped by an unknown man
changing a dress: you will suffer because of your own foolishness
closet full of dresses: a constant love of social pleasures
designing a dress: you will receive a proposition and turn it down (I dream this ALL THE TIME, yet I cannot think of the last proposition I received)
buying a new dress: health and happiness
nice dress: efforts will succeed
tight dress: you are being unrelenting your control of others
purple dress: happy marriage and death of a friend (huh?)
a partially sewn dress: you will be disregarded by friends
a dress in a shop window: your ambition is inspired, follow it
taking off a dress: trust only your own counsel
sewing up a torn dress: you are neglecting your own children
washing a dress: be more financially frugal
wearing a daring evening gown : your selfish, presumptive personality shines (I dream this fairly often as well. At least I'm a SHINY jerk.)
someone stepping on the train of your dress: you will have a new love affair

Well, I've googled unsuccessfully, so perhaps you can help: What does it mean when you dream of fabric? Specifically, shopping for fabric? I have fabric-shopping dreams fairly often, and while they can be frustrating while I dream (the hunt! the hunt!), sometimes they're more frustrating when I wake without the unusual fabrics I found while sleeping. Like the beaded silk and lace I found for a wedding dress, which was, I think, $514.00 per yard, and I needed six yards - but the bodice was already part of yardage, so that helped.So ... what do you think it means?

dunno. But I could use a few dressy dreams in my life. I just dream about losing my teeth.

Zolar has more than a page on the significance of fabric dreams? Who knew?http://print.google.com/print?hl=en&id=2j_ELj22fMgC&pg=PA148&lpg=PA148&dq=fabric&prev=http://print.google.com/print%3Flr%3D%26q%3Dwell-dressed%2Bwoman%26start%3D70&sig=E4UQsMzwuYpwS2r09v14IsLcMEc

@Madelene

If you dream about losing teeth, that's really bad! It means someone close to you is going to die. Do you experience any pain when the teeth fall out?
