    How did they differ (at all) from the photos?

    Were the measurements correct too?

    oooo good news all round :j
    Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....
  • Seller is jcgc2004830. You buy dress and get emailed a measurement form. Asked for quite a lot of mesurements. You can pick any of the dresses and choose wht colour you want. You can ask for lace up or zip. I went for this dress (Item number: 220883121132) but ordered in white- having bridesmaids in white, and me in purple. I asked for buttons to be removed, and lace up back. Purple ribbon. You can also add matching shawl for £5!
    Ordered two for my older bridesmaids.
    Sizes are generous. Fully lined.
    I bought on 11th Oct, and they delivered on Monday!
    They are posted to London, checked, then poted to buyer. If they are not right when they arrive in London, they send back. Saves on import costs too!
    Apparently they will fund alteration costs too (see despription on dresses)
    They also included 2 free necklaces which was a nice suprise!
    I can't praise them enough really!
    Just need to let dresses hang as creased from transporting. Very pleased.
    Lots of dresses to choose from too, and at good prices

    Just be aware - when ordering from China, you need to factor in the customs charge!!

    We ordered some fur shrugs from China, 3 for £53 from light in the box.

    We didn't factor in the extra £22 customs charge, COD!!

    Thanks for sharing your sellar Claireabell. I've saved the seller and am hoping they'll still be around in 18 months time! Can't buy the dresses yet as my BM's will be 10, 11 & 12 so have no idea what size they'll be. I love they idea of the made to measure and the prices are fantastic!
