Hi MrsMcK2B
Dont worry about what type you want, I definetly didnt want a strapless dress, I was determined I'd have a lace top with cap sleeves (good for hiding big shoulders) but I saw THE dress and almost stopped breathing lol. I turned the computor round and asked my sister what she thought and her reaction was WOW!! I was worried about ordering from China but have only heard good things to be honest. And alot of the bridal shops stock these now but with huge mark ups. I thought its definetly worth the risk. xx

my daughters just been having a look at "she who cannot be named" website, in particular the prom dress section (mori lee) there is some stunning dresses on there that could be made in white, anyone ever ordered one of these? just wondering if prom dress quality would be on par with wedding dress quality x

I've ordered from L.I.T.B. got my invites at 80% off, they are gorgeous you do have to be aware of import taxes on some items though. I've ordered loads of stuff from China over the past couple of years and these were the only thing i had to pay import tax for. Only an extra £12 though so wasn't too bad, still alot cheaper altogether than getting them here or making myself so I didn't mind x

CommentAuthorMrsRatcliffetobe
Well my dress came, but its going back :( Not because there's anything wrong with it, its gorgeous. I was so excited to try it on, my MOH came round to help tie up the back and the second she saw it all she could do was tell me it was horrible, wrong colour, wrong style. As soon as she left I just sat there crying. She's completly ruined the dress for me.

MrsRatcliffetobe I've just read your post and can't believe your MOH could be so mean! Definately try it on for someone else and get a second opinion on it (she may just be jealous). Quite frankly, I dont think your 'friend' deserves the title of MOH, I can't believe they way she said everything to you. Fair enough if it didn't suit you then you would want someone to tell you, but not slag it off in such a horrible way. If you love the dress then don't let her ruin it for you, and tell her to keep her nasty opinions to her self in future! I am so angry for you! Lots of hugs being sent your way xxx

MrsRatcliffetobe, your dress is similar to mine and I dont have half as nice a figure as you must do! Why not post a pic of you in it before listening to the bridesmaid. She may be jealous! Strangers online are more likely to be honest with you.
I am buying mine from YBW aka She Who Must Not Be Names and its actually the bodice of one and skirt of another. Im bricking it in case its a mess and its a plus size so who knows what I will get.
I ordered my bridesmaids dresses from bay of e. A uk seller who ships her stock from China. They are great quality with only minor flaws like a pleat not going all the way across on one dress and the heart shape on another bodice not being perfect. Pics in my folder.

The dresses cost me £46 each and the sizes were spot on, nice heavy satin and good quality. They easily match anything in bridal stores. Im chuffed to bits. :-D
CommentAuthorkirsty91
Linzi-Jo, postage was basically a £10er a dress tho totally worth it! If u have people who are inbetween sizes get them the bigger size, as they are smallish sizes. They are very well made though, and came in 10days of being ordered.
