Default Help me find the designer of this dress?

So... long story short... I had chosen this dress from an internet retailer that makes them inexpensively. Now I am starting to get nervous about what if it arrives and I hate it. I guess then I'm only out $200. I have to order it soon so if it comes and I dont like it, then I have enough time to buy something else/have one made. But I'm also considering having my dress made by a seamstress from the photo. This would cost around $800-900. Can anybody help me figure out who the designer is so that I can maybe see more photos of the dress so I can decide? Anybody wanna give me some advice about what they would do... because now I am second guessing my original decision to get it on the internet. TIA!

I think that Watters has a bridesmaid dress that looks like that - you can order it in all white I believe. Check their site!

Yup, the one I am thinking of is on the Watters website, style #9826. They show it in black and white.

That Watter's dress is definitely similar. So far, I can't find your exact dress, but I think with enough *similar* pics ... a seamstress can do it w/o a problem.

What website were you ordering from? Maybe someone on BDW has some experience with them and can offer some insight/feedback.

Here's the link. I'm also inclined to say its not a Watters copy because they have a Watters section, and this gown doesnt fall under it. It's grouped in with other A-line gowns, that don't say who the designers are (obviously the ones sold by this Chinese company are copycats) but some are clearly brand identifiable.

I was going to mention the same thing. I'm pretty sure its Jasmine, however I tried their website and only found 2008 collection. Try searching through brides.com

Default Re: Help me find the designer of this dress?

If you can get some good reviews of that website, they seem great to use.

Here are some comments I found:
Has anyone heard anything about www.weddingo.net? - Yahoo! Answers

Here are people trying to figure out if the site is legit. They don't really figure it out though
Kvetch: Wedding Dress Alternatives => wedding dress from http://www.weddingo.net
