The dress is FAB! But I'd be very wary from ebay! Have you tried Milly or Landy???

Not sure how much you are looking to spend but this site has some beautiful dresses and a choice of colours, http://gothicweddingdresses.webs.com/apps/webstore/products/show/1267050

I got my dress off ebay, used, but so cheap! I use ebay a lot but to be honest I tend to stay away from sellers with any negative feedback (unless its for something trivial) especially if they are shops. I suppose I think I'm unlucky and if anyone is going to end up with a bad buy it will be me!!

If you're looking for a cheap dress then Landy or Milly seem to be the way to go, they will both give you quotes if you email them with a picture of a dress that you like, you don't have to chose one from their site. Make sure you leave yourself with plenty of time though as they do take a while to make and be prepared to pay customs on top of the final price.

Good luck with the search and congrats on setting the date

You could always buy a traditional wedding dress from ebay, then get it dyed to your choice of colour. In general used wedding dresses on ebay come with a picture of the last person wearing it, so you get a really good idea of what it looks like in the flesh.

I was going to buy a dress from china, but a friend of the family bought one for a prom and it was a disaster. Cheap thin material, shoddy workmanship. She was absolutley gutted.

I love purple so I'd say go for it but not sure about the seller. I don't speak german but stuck the negs into google to translate it for me, it's not brill but it gives you an idea what they mean
1st neg feedback says - very dissatisfied dress was broken and no agreement is possible with the seller
2nd- wrong size specification, the return is still no money back. Fraud.
3rd-dress does not look as beautiful as described, shipping very late.
4th-Size does not match
5th-allegedly discontinued would pay for it does not produce salable
6th-the seller refuses to send the dress to him, the price is too low
7th- in English-Avoid! very poor fit, returned for refund, said didn't arrive,ebay had to refund
8th -broken merchandise, return after consultation (vers. Pak.), No money back, unserious!.
9th- measurements of demand and supply were wrong. No exchange, despite Beweisfot
What is your budget & what size are you someone might be able to find something gorgeous for you. Oh and purple & teal will be gorgeous together.

I LOVE the color! Seems like we need to find you the same dress from a different seller?

Some nice dresses on the site that Maydot posted , I don't know them & suspect they may be selling frocks from China (not necessarily a bad thing though) looks like they will make the dress in the colour you choose, I think this would be gorgeous in purple. Looks like it would cost £259 with £10 for shipping.
This one is £209 might be nice too.

I think they might be dresses from China too, but if you look on their contact page they are registered as a business in Norfolk and say they only have stockrooms and dressmakers premises there. Hmmm...might google them and see if I can find any customer reviews. Nice photos of real brides wearing their dresses though, I like the one of the bride wearing her hiking boots through the snow

EDIT: found a review, but only one, but at least its positive! http://www.youandyourwedding.co.uk/chatroom/topic/286810

Stunning dress!! Loving the colour. As to the seller, they have heaps of good feedback and very few negs. The 98% comes from the neutrals, which actually appear to mostly be from europe, which may be more to do with sizing being different. Couple of comments mention they come up a little small, so if you are borderline in sizes may be safer to go up rather than down!

Maydot, I would bet money on them being made in China, from the posting its very similar to other 'sourced from china' sellers. I dislike the hiding behind a UK address but that is just a personal bugbear!! Most people are happy with them!

Thank you for everyone's advice and opinions.

I decided not to go with the dress I posted.

However, I found a gorgeous one which is so me and I just ordered it!

I am so excited right now! Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110509976924&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
