Sorry, for some reason my posts werent showing up, and i couldnt paste the image. Here is my dilemma. I tried the dress #1 on the pic, and it was missing the blink, so i tried it with the swarowki crystalls belt and loved it(well didnt like the cost of the belt 450$)its made from tafetta material,then i found a similar dress online(dress#2)with a different top chest shape, and loved that more open chest area part. What do you all think if i would order the dress #1 that i tried and have them do the chest/breast area cut like dress #2. But do u think i should have manufacture in china put the bling crystals like this belt?or should i buy this belt separately and have seamstress in USA do it? i thinks what they do with this belts, they stitched on the material, so it looks like it was there originally. i also like the beading on top on dress #3...i know i kind of confused u all,sorry. I know not all of you will be able to open the attachment, i tried pasting it in the post but it wouldnt let me. Ned you opinion/amd advice. I also believe sometimes less is more, and dont want to overdoit . Thank you all for the input:)

I tried to put pics up for you with no luck

 

I really like dress # 1. You can probably get a sash from ebay. I think you can add them if you order through Jasmine's.

@erin, thanks for trying to put them up, idk why its not working...

now i found a bride who is selling her dress(the dress #1) she is asking 650$(originall dress is $950) i wouldnt pay 650$for it defenetly, so now im debating..i kind of wanted to buy it made. and it will be under 500$for sure, but i think this bride may sell it for 400$, which is still a good price. But for this cost i can have it made,and ask for a different cut/shape on the chest. what do u think?

I suggest getting quotes on getting it made how you would like it, and go from there.

Do you have an idea on who your gonna go with if you order?

 

I am going with Jasmine's. I'm just waiting for them to email me back the price and ordering procedure.

ive gotten quotes on my other dresses from jasmine and dressylime, they r my top 2. they both do incredible job!jasmine usually chages dowble 40%more then dressylime. So i thinks i will go with dresssylime. But again they are both top 2dressmakers. I have seen pictures of their work, they both do incredible job and i would fell safe going with either one.which dress u end up getting?/ordering?
