MESH
Theraven:
Depending on the items.
Clothing - Create A Sim/CAS OR buy on a community lot OR find a mod that lets you buy them on residential lots. When they're bought, choose a sim, click on a dresser, and choose the outfit.
Accessories/makeup/hair - mirrors --> "change appearance". Toddlers have to be carried to a mirror.
Furniture/build items - buy/build mode

About the only advice I can give (and it's worth 2 cents, if that) that you haven't already received is to ponder the following questions:
1. Do you have the expansions for the dress to show up? Some require that you have a particular one, such as Nightlife.
2.. Are you sure you're looking in the right age group? I can't tell you how many times I tried looking for adult dresses on young adults ... they don't necessarily apply to each other.
3. Is it a recent mesh? Occasionally, the creator messes up and later posts a correction.
4. Is the outfit a two-piece when you thought it was a one-piece, or vice versa? I have done THAT numerous times!
5. Did you look in all categories ... sleepwear, PJs, etc. Sometimes, either the creator wasn't clear if the outfit was a pajama or not, or gets a little sloppy.
You've probably done all these already, and if so, I apologize.
Sometimes, by the way, the outfit is a bad outfit. The mesh is messed up, for instance. In that case, you can politely let the creator know this via private messaging, chat, e-mail, etc.

Did a couple of changes to my previous post. And good advice, gazania :)

And I had to change my last sentence. Sorry about that ... someone kept talking to me about AIM and MSN Chat while I was posting, and I stuck that into my post instead of the correct words!
My point was that if the mesh or dress is bad, try contacting the creator and politely tell him or her that you can't see the dress on your end. List your expansions. I had an incident where a house I downloaded didn't come out, and the creator didn't realize that it needed OFB to work. (I didn't have that at the time.) "Politely" is the key term. 99% of the time, this was an honest error on the creator's part, and most of the time, it's fixable.
