    Oh Kate, it looks lovely it really does. It fits and suits your figure perfectly! I love the train.

    Are you happy with it?

    Thanks Sarah - I'm sure yours will be fine. Post some piccies when it comes!

    Sammy - yes I'm thrilled with it! Can't believe I've got such a lovely dress for so little money. It was based on a Maggie Sottero dress costing £850 and whilst it isn't an £850 quality dress it is about a £300 to £500 quality dress that I paid £100 for!

    I'm now going to have fun accessorising it with jewellery, a tiara and a veil. Because the design of the dress is quite simple, I can really go to town with the accessories!

    They have ground to a halt for now haha! How are things going with you?
  • Oh Kate your dress is GORGEOUS =o) beautiful fit. I've sent her a pic of the one I'd like her to make, now waiting for her to let me know how much and how to pay.....I can't wait to even just order it :D

    Oh no Aimee - how come? Hopefully it is due to money and not anything else!

    Thanks Snugglepants - what sort of dress are they making for you? It's very exciting waiting for your dress and even more exciting opening it! Just remember they pack them inside out - they look a bit odd like that but it protects the fabric. I thought they'd made mine out of cotton sheeting to start with! :rotfl:

    No not really. It is very busy at work and there isn't a great deal I can do now until my sister (Maid of honour) has her first child in April. It is driving me mad not being able to get her dress!

    I ordered mine in January and received it at the beginning of March.

    Do bear in mind when ordering that China shuts down completely for 2 weeks in January for their New Year so it will add 2 weeks to delivery time if its in the middle of your dress being made.

    Maybe order in December to be on the safe side?

    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p
