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

Maybe you should go try them both on again! I know alot of times you feel like you really like 2 things but when you put them on again one outshines the other!

oh Michelle! Definitely don't feel down! I LOVE my dress. I was also afraid it wouldn't have that tighten in every angle of my body and make me look like a million bucks. But it does and I feel AMAZING in it. As long as I can still zip it up it makes me look great other than I need to do some work on my arms!

My dress was a moonlight bridal dress. I really didn't feel like looking through all of her dresses and knew I wanted this dress so i emailed her and asked. I've heard she's told some people they are unable to do their dress, but I think they are dresses w/ ALOt f detail and she knows it won't turn out exact and feels like she'll just let a customer down so she'll flat out tell you if she can or can't make it.

Here is the dress I asked her for:

And here it is on me:

I LOVE it. It's ivory taffeta. if you notice in the original picture there was a sash that went around the bottom part. I forgot to tell her that I didn't want it so when I got the dress I put it on and friend was taking pics and i cut it off but realized after lookin at the pics I like it better with it!

I ordered a standard size 10 cause she will only let you return if its standard sizing and I was really afraid I might not like it. She told me the measurements for the standard size and I was so excited I just said yep those will work! Well it didn't fit when I first got it. I lost some weight and rechecked her measurements and they were exactly what I was so I jumped into the dress and it zipped right up! I'm really short so I do have to have it altered cause the top body part is just a little to long and I'll have a couple inches taken off the bottom so I suggest getting custom measurements.

It fits sooo good. I'm not even wearing a bra in the pics! Its comfortable and everything! I highly recommend her.

another girl used her and got a more detailed dress and posted pics here:

I hope that helps you out some!

Thanks for the info. I think I might give it a try for the TTD session the next day...

 

I might give it a try for the actual dress!! I'm still deciding between the 2 but I think i'm going to go with the lacy one (San Patrick- Binefar)

Even for a knock-off it's not cheap. One website says $345, another says $380...

Wow guys!! This is just the thread I was looking for. The dress I love is $2200 and I really don't want to spend that kind of money on that. I'd rather spend the $2000 on my family's travel expenses or something else!! I did find an ebay seller that does replicas and their feedback is great! AND they have the Jim Hjelm dress I'm looking to buy

I would rather though get it from someone that you guys have used. Maybe I'll give Landy a shot and see if they can make it. What would I do without you guys

I'm so glad I ran across this thread! I've been eyeing a La Sposa dress but I don't want to pay that much $$ for a 2nd dress. It will just be for my vow renewal at our AHR.

Jacilynda, thank so much for the detailed reviews on this ebay seller and posting about your experience. Your dress looks amazing and fits great!!!! For the price of the knockoff, I figure I can't go too wrong right. About their sizing, how exactly do they run - US standard or wedding gown sizes?

the seller i used runs pretty close to US sizing. She has a sizing chart on her site wedding dress,prom gown and bridesmaid dress by landy bridal you can also order a dress to your exact measurements for no extra charge!

Jacilynda your dress fits you so well and looks amazing! I've been thinking about ordering a second dress and you are making me feel much more confidant about ordering it from Landy. Thank you!
