Post all "Knock Off Wedding Dress" questions/comments here

Ok so I just read this entire thread and I also ordered a dress from gianinarbridal on ebay a week ago. She's great to work with, i got a prompt response in less than 24 hrs each time.
I ordered this dress hoping it looks beautiful and if it needs some alterations I can just go get those done.

It does have a corset back so I know that helps but I realize it might be too long, which isnt that hard to fix anyway.

Here is my dress..


It will be in white, and I should be getting it by mid to late March.
Once its here I will post pics

OK, maybe it is not as bad as I thought last week... I am still disappointed, and will e-mail Landy Bridal about this later tonight. I purposely chose them based on good reviews, and must admit that stitches and beading seem well done. Here is the original:



Here is mine, please pardon the bad hair and no smile on some pics, DBF was driving me crazy not taking the pics like I wanted. Front:



On this pic I'm pinching the back to hold it better:



See how much room I have at the back:



I don't know if you can see how the neckline was done, it is kind of sweetheart strapless, and they added that chiffon layer to give it a halter like look. Not very linear like a true halter, specially since I have nothing to fill it. Can you also see the creasing at the front about waist high? Seem like the extra layer used on the bodice (sandwiched between the satin and the inner layer is not sewn perfectly straight and bunches a bit. We tried to iron this out without success.

I think most of it is fixable, not sure the neckline can be made perfect though, which disappoints me, since how hard can it be to make a nice halter in the first place? (Adding lots of padding should help, I've tested it using my magical filled push-up bra.) Someone here gave me a reference for alterations, I have to contact them, but I'm so busy next week, and time is running fast!

Hi Ladies,
Thanks for all of the great options. I have emailed a few of the options to get pricing. What was it that "sold" you on a particular company? I'm so confused as to who to work with. Thanks!
