What's the quality like Gleeful? Will you be happy wearing it?
Quality is reasonable, the back is lovely but the front is a bit dodgy I think. I was lucky enough to pick up a genuine dress last week so won't be wearing this one. It's up on ebay now advertised as a prom dress as it's not a wedding dress due to the colour.0 -
The Landy evening dress I ordered arrived today.
I've thought hard about posting this, and I hope this does not upset anyone, but I have to say I am very disappointed, and I am posting this in the hope that I can stop anyone else wasting a lot of money, as I unfortunately have
Thankfully, for me, this dress was 'just' for evening wear. I would have been devastated if I'd ordered a wedding dress and it arrived in this state. It has been an expensive mistake too, as I paid 20 odd euro supplement for a plus size, which was not mentioned anywhere until I had completed checkout and received the demand by email.
Quite apart from the fact it doesn't fit (too small, in spite of me ordering a size larger than I thought I needed, on the premise that it could be taken in but not made bigger), the stitching is of poor quality, the dress isn't finished properly - trimming is just tacked on randomly, and the material is not of particularly nice quality, especially the lining. The dress weighs a ton too, so would be expensive to post back for them to sort out. I think it is going straight to the charity shop.
It may or may not be a coincidence that my credit card details were 'compromised' at some point shortly after this transaction with Landy. My credit card issuer stopped my card and I had to phone the fraud team to verify my recent transactions. I had to have a new card, new account number and PIN.
... Today I received an invoice for £7.49 in VAT from DHL, who apparenty paid this on my behalf prior to delivery and only just thought to let me know :mad:
I took the wretched dress (unworn) to a charity shop weeks ago, and had pretty much forgotten all about it.

I would never order from Landy again either, the dress was awful, the communication was rubbish and I too have had a customs letter from DHL.
I sold my dress on ebay as a prom dress for £50, making a loss of £190 so that's obviously all the dress was worth!0 -

I've just seen the photo Angelina. Not nice at all I'm afraid. However, I hope you get suited with whomever you choose.0

Although I bought my dress from landy and am happy, with the reviews that are coming out I wouldn't for a wedding this summer. If you have lots of time, maybe order a bridesmaid dress to check quality or wait till a quieter period of the year - such as the end of summer as it seems the busy wedding season has taken a toll on quality.
Also be very very realistic about what you want - if it has to be perfect - buy from a shop or a local dressmaker so that you get want you want. If you are a pretty laid back bride with lots of time to rectify any potential disasters then you are less likely to be disppointedHad a thrifty wedding 17-06-10
