Hi all, I have emailed "she who cant be named" and have had no reply as yet but cant get my head around it so thought i would ask u lovely ladies as lots f u seem to be more clued up than me.
Are her dresses actual designer dresses or just replica (on her website it gives u the choie of designers thats what comfused me & no it doesnt take a lot to do that) Does she only do the dresses you see on her website or cans he get hold of or make something if seen soemthing thats not on her sight?
I love alot of her dresses but nothing has jumped out at me am going to try dresses on but the one i think i have my heart set on from the picture i think is going to be well out of budget so am hoping that it a case of can design ur own and she wil do it for you.
Be really greatfull if anyone able to advise me xxx

They're not designer dresses, they're replicas. But they are the best replicas out there as far as we know.
I've stolen some pics of her FB page. one including one of our own Rockabillychick

They're replicas. But to make things more confusing a lot of the designer dresses in the shops are replicas as well. This is due to the inability of designers to copyright their designs. So a lot of the dresses you will see are a copy of more expensive gowns! An example of this is a dress that has a striking panel of colour down the back that goes through to the train. Originally designed by an American designer I have seen other designers selling the dress at higher and lower price points!
CommentAuthorCrawf
I would be happy with a replica if it meant it was a bit cheaper but still what I wanted! I am of the opinion that if the dress is right, thats the one I will get - hopefully - regardless of the price!
It is very misleading though that you pay for a designer label but its a replica. Hopefully it doesnt mean anything about the quality though!!
CommentAuthorHayley Elizabeth
I was considering this option but when i tried the dress i want in the shop it was so structured and you could tell it was of high quality and i just don't know if you would get that from a replica?? xx
If you were paying for a replica and the label it would be a counterfeit item. Instead the photos of the designer dresses are examples of what she can create/replicate. She has loads of photos on her book of face page that show the dresses she's made. If I didn't already have a dress I would seriously consider getting one from her.
CommentAuthorShazk
Oh my samanthap91 that does confuse things!
Crawf i more than happy to have a replica that's why I asked the question and because her reviews seem so good and had seen few photos of her work and I think that's what made me ask (like said doesn't take lot to confuse me) as long I can get the dress I want I dont care if has designer label (think I own 2labeled items in my waredrobe lol im not one to spend money just because of the name lol.
Thanks Lego bride for them photos its always nice to see them on real brides I think I going to have to just be patient and wait for her to reply. Do U know if she is England, America or china based? X x

CommentAuthorLegoWife
she might take a few days to reply, she took nearly a week to get back to me but she was very helpful. I think she is England based and sends the orders off to be made in china, I'm not certain on that though.
Hayley Elizabeth- honestly my dress wasn't very well structured which is why I ended up buying a corset for it. It has plastic bones and one of them are piercing out the top a bit so I need to figure out a way to fix that. It's probably down to me trying it on so much though lol

Oh that's ok I will just have to be patient she obviously busy lol Is ur dress from her Lego ride? Would she not put better bones in if asked?

CommentAuthorLegoWife
The boning probably depends of the style of dress. I don't think my dress is a proper corset dress anyway so that's probably why it doesn't have really structured boning.

Mrs Brammer to be, I was in the same situation as you but found a dress I liked and forwarded voldemort as many pics as i could to see if she could produce a replica - which she says she can! Ordered last weekend and will post pics when it arrives in 7 weeks. Took the risk as all the reviews look good - Legobride's dress looks amazing - and best of all if it pays off I save a grand! :-)
Took her a few days to reply to me too but was very helpful and send me link to my dress when I was ready to order.

CommentAuthorCrawf
hahaha! I am in the same kind situation, my mum is 600 miles away and my BM's are 2 hours in opposite directions! I really don't want to go on my own - my mum and MOH are teachers so it has to be in the school holidays too, and when other BM can get time off work. grrr even booking a day to go is stressful LOL

aww how sweet of u! I am in Coventry :( My boss keeps begging to take me dress shopping, I think she has more wedding fever than me! I have been looking at preloved and hoping that if I find something in a shop (whenever I finally get to one!!!) I like then maybe I will get a pre-owned dress - saves some pennies! Then I will customize it to make it my own.
CommentAuthorShazk
Thats a good idea.
Its so hard isnt it, i have loads of friends that are dying to go dress shopping but i really dont want to go with them as if can i dont want to many people to know much about it till the day (not that i very good at keeping secrets when im excited lol) x

hahaha! I think if I went with anyone other than my BM/mum they would KILL me haha. I'd have to pretend I hadn't been yet LOL

Lol well u could always do that!!!
My sister (BM who lives 3 hours away wouldnt be that botheredshe undersrtands and as she not up again till OCtober she will of expected me to of gone as im so impatient), my other BM i think would feel bad that she wasnt able to arrange something more than annoyed id done it without her but my otehr friends i Know what they like none of them can keep a secret so everyone would know (not intentionally but tehy would be so excited lol) x

I've sent HER pics from 2 different dresses that I want as one (in my albums) & she said she can do that. She gets back to me within a day or so, but it is chinese new year this weekend so that may be why. You can also request samples from her, which is what I've done & just waiting for it to arrive in the post now :D xx
