Quick straw poll...where's everyone getting them?

RainbowDrops

Got mine from Oasis - £65 each & they can wear them again without looking like they're wearing a bridesmaid dress

and my child ones were off ebay but originally from next, last years signature bridal collection i think.

Another one for Debenhams here! They're Jasper Conran ones, meant to be £85 but got them when they had one of their spectacular sales so they were reduced to £68, nice! I love them, almost feel like getting one for myself to where at some point afterwards!! : ) found them when I wasn't specifically looking for them and like others they're not traditional bridesmaids ones x

Hi Sammy, i was looking at ordering my bridesmaid dresses from her - can i ask why you wouldnt recommend her? I can recall someone recently getting married (April i think) and had 8 bridesmaids and she got hers from there and i was going to take the chance upon seeing her pics. I dont want to bother if youve have bad feedback against her

thanks

rubysmummy- i brought one from her last year- to check whether i liked it etc-- it arrived after 6 weeks- i liked it and ordered 2 more from her. it was the colour 806 with little straps put on.
i didnt recieve the dresses until 9 weeks after i ordered them- when i got them- one was the wrong size- i ordered size 12 and it came a size 10. so i asked to send it back and no reply- until a week later- she asked i return it and she would send me a size 12---- this took a further 6 weeks.
i took them to the alteractions women this weekend- and it took an hour to get them sorted-- she said that the birmingham lady had sewn the dress to the lining which normally dress makers dont do-- also the bottom of the dress wasnt straight- so the back she was taking off 4 inches and the front only 2 inches. also she hasnt attached the back panel- (its lace up) so the alteractions women is doing this--its costing me £30 a dress to alter because of the poor dress making from birmingham lady-- the dresses cost me £30-- so its now £60 a dress
i am gutted as i know that some people have got ok dresses from her-- but i have not!
