Hi ladies! Im new to the thread, sort of. I've been reading all day. lol I guess I'll add my two cents on knockoffs. I got married on 7-23-11 and ordered my dress from monicabridal on DHgate. The dress was a replica of a maggie "simone." It was a little off when I got it, the sweetheart (which I asked them to add) was a little crooked and the rouching in bodice wasn't as tight as I would have liked it to be. But any way, I had it altered to fix the sweetheart. There wasn't much you could do about the rouching. (I'll add pictures for reference at the bottom of this post) When I took the dress off at the end of the night I noticed that the seams on the inside of the dress were coming apart. SO to make a long stort short, I dont like our wedding pictures so we are redoing some bride and groom shots. I would like to order a new knock off but this time I'm thinking of ordering something with lots of lace. Since it's just a photo shoot and not my actual wedding, I don't want to pay more than $200. I know you get what you pay for, but I can't justify more than that just to take pictures for a couple of hours. Im trying to decide between babyonline from DHgate, Duosheng or Topspartner. Anyone ordered a somewhat complicated dress from them? Any pictures so I can see their quality? Thanks! back of dress an example of the rouching if the dress was not pulled up tightly :
@missT- thank you!
