so after much back and forth and some changes in the beading of my dress (They used plastic beads and I had seen on their site earlier that they only use rhinestones and crystals so I requested for a change which they promptly did), I have my final pictures from Jasmines.

 

I am very pleased with the results and hopefully the dress will also look great on me.

 

here are a couple of pictures.

 

Its a Jasmine Knock-off of the Pronovias Jalea.

 

 

 

Here is an older picture of the sleeve in action.

 

 

Please share your thoughts ladies.

 

To me it looks perfect now tho

I love the beading and design.  They did a nice job on the dress. I can't see any issues with it on my end.  Also, thanks for the headsup about the plastic beads. Mine also has a lot of beading on it and I will make sure to pay attention to what they use.  I am also a "Pronovias" knock off bride!

I ordered the dress 10 days ago, so they are super fast. Having said that, my dress is quite simple. They asked me to give them specific instructions on what I want them to change. So I spent about an hour triying to work out things I want them to change. Here are the results.

 

Have I missed anything? I am happy with what they have done so far, but there are a few things I want them to change as you can see in the photos I attached.

 

They will be putting embellishment once they have fixed these things.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The dress without a train you show does have an a-line style.  The difference is that it was cut slightly on the bias for a more flowy effect and the replica dress is a straight cut.  If you were to lay the dress out flat you would see a slight trumpet flair.

This is so pretty I hope my replica will be as nice as your's is. This was one of the dresses that I was considering. I might have chosen this one if I had known how well it can be replicated. I think the one I chose is a little harder to make so I'm really worried about how its going to come out.

Twas pretty easy. Here is a pic of the initial (Plastic) beading. It just looked...well, plastic (it helps that I grew up beading clothes for my mum when she was a seamstress )

 

 

And another picture showing the full beading.

 

While it looked nice and all, I just wasnt comfortable with it as the original dress had crystal beads.

 

Here's a picture of the original Jalea.

 

 

And Voila, they did a second try and this is the result:

 

 

Initially I was a bit uncomfortable with the color contrast but it gradually grew on me (my dress is white) and now I wont have it any other way.

 

And yeah, I'll be sure to help when the time comes Tulumbride2013, just as lots of brides have helped me on this forum. I cant say thank you enough.

You all rock!
