    depends if you want to take the risk of it not fitting...? it could be a different size but then again could come and it could fit beautifully. its a risk you would have to take. x

    BEWARE!!! They ask customers to give good feedback on the promise that they will get their dress free but you ebd up having to pay and the quality is not great. Also costs a lot to ship the item back if its not what you wanted and they add customs tax on so you have to pay it when it is delivered to you!!!

    JellyBaby has made a good point about the feedback above :) But If i was going to buy a china dress (which i may do) i would defo get in contact either on here, or with other B2B's somewhere, and ask them to send you pics of their dress etc, so u can actually see what they are like as these sites use the stock photo's...normally from the actual designers images.
    I think if you know you are getting a dress made or replicated in China, for £95, you would be aware the quality is not going to be that of a heavyweight designer effort, that you would pay lets say £800 for. Thats why its cheap!

    There are also loads of threads on here hun, have a look as lots of ladies got theirs from china, and are really pleased. The customs tax, is not payable on everything leaving china, only over certain amount, and even then its on average between 5 and 9% of the overall price of the item.
    I think whats best to do here is....do your research properly. Have a really good look at the websites you know of, try and contact other ladies who have these dresses, get someone to measure you PROPERLY! alot of designer gowns all start in china with their materials...(according to a well known gown designer)
    Of course there are going to be people who have had negative experiences with dresses...but all you need to do is look at some threads on here! there have been some horrendous stories about bridal shops! so just weigh out the pro's and cons .xxx best of luck xx
