I hope you are doing more than just posting this here   Honestly, there is really only a slim to none chance that anyone of the people who read this question will be in a position or disposition to send you a dress.  

but I can give you some advice...

Before you approach stores that might be interested in sponsoring you, define the benefits of such sponsorship - what advertising or promotional benefit is there to the store for such sponsorship?  

Once you know what you are offering in return, you can either go in person or mail your proposal to stores which have such items.  Follow up your proposal in about two weeks with a phone call.

You can also try to 'sell' the sponsorship on Ebay ... I've seen stranger things on sale.  Again, you will have to clearly define and describe the benefits to the purchaser what the benefits to them would be.

Finally, you can try to run local fundraisers to get the money to buy a dress - try bake/yard sales, car washes, door to door, etc.  This might be the most viable option if you are serious about getting the dress.
