Now i dont see how you can really mess this dress up but im not suree who to go with. Now my wedding isn't until Nov which is why I want to figure this out now incase something does happen. But what should I do??? I appreciate all the input I can get!

 

Here is a link to the picture on Jasmines

that a beautiful dress! i feel like i've seen someone get that dress before too! i've heard great things about Jasmine and Dressilyme. you should see if Jasmine has any pictures of that dress if they've made it before in the past.

Thanks for your reply.  I'm not sure what type of dress I want, just know I want it to be not big and poofy.  I have a couple of styles in mind.  I think I may go wedding dress shopping see what I like then check out the Jasmines link to see if what I like can be made from there.

def go try on dresses so you see which silhouette looks the best on you!  and then even if you don't see something like it from jasmine's, i think you can send pictures and they can do custom orders as well!  good luck!

So I received confirmation from DHGate that my knock off Allure dress was shipped. I am furious that babyonline would ship the dress without sending me pictures! For those brides that purchased dresses from babyonline...did you receive pictures before it shipped? I just went in on them via email, I thought I made it clear that although they could not committ to mid production pictures they were supposed to send me pictures before it shipped.  So worried

Here's my dress from DHGate with my shoes & necklace, but it's not zipped, taking it in for alterations this week.  It also needs steamed:

 

 

 

Back:

It looks really good!! Love the color of your necklace and shoes too. Are you happy with it?

oh wow!  That's rough.  Well, fingers crossed that when it arrives, it's what you envisioned.  Otherwise, don't they have a satisfaction guaranteed clause or something on DHGate?  I think you'll be fine though.

oh no! that's horrible! i ordered my dress from babyonline and i had to constantly constantly ask them to send me photos before inccase i wanted to change anything and they did right before they shipped it. i'm hoping that the dress will still turn out great! email them again and ask if it really shipped. i've heard stories where it says it shipped but the makers will say it hasn't yet! crossing my fingers for you! <3

Guys the dress just arrived!! I will be sure to post pictures tomorrow!!!

I found a dress on babyonline that I absolutely love..its a very light pale pink..I'm planning to have my bridesmaid dresses in coral...any opinions if these two colours will look good together in pictures?

Okay girls my Allure knockoff arrived yesterday and I have to say although the vendor never sent pictures and I was totally clueless the dress arrived within 3 days and was pretty damn close! Of course there are a few flaws but its absolutely perfect for the purpose of the TTD and I am super pleased!!  I have since placed 3 more orders for dresses, hopefully I will get the same results. It did have a bit of a stinky smell to it, almost like vinegar which a bit weird...LOL

 

This is how it arrived...

 

 

 

The beading was clearly different and of course the quality of the beads they used but everything was well sewn in.  

 

It was surprisingly even lined...

 

 

The other thing to keep in mind is sizing. I am typically a size 6 but I ordered it an 8 with the intentions of having it altered here because I rather it be too big then too small and it fit like a glove. I am glad I went a size bigger.

 

This was the original from the designer website....all in all I am very pleased and def would recommend this vendor. For $150 you cant beat it!!
