  • YEH i had a maggie sottero dress They are excellent:j :j
    We spent over £1000 on my gown new and it was worth every penny :rotfl:
    They are great!! i wore mine all day from start to finish!.
    Very comfortable,and excellent quality:T QUOTE]

    I agree! I love my maggie sottero dress, I was really comfy. I got married in St Lucia and was lucky enough to wear it twice - Once for the wedding and once for the hugh party we had when we got home.

    Mine is Bethani - with the black detail - very striking. It also has a corset up the back - i don't think it went all the way up, but i didn't wear a bra. It was very comfy, even with my mum pulling it as tight as she could get it!

    At the moment is sat under the bed, all dry cleaned and nicely boxed up, until i decide what to do with it.:confused:

    Mine was called 'paige' it had a corset for the back, that i wore with no bra and my back showing.
    I had like foam(lol) fitted in the frount to keep my boobs in place and to make it look like i had great tits! and they didnt move once which gave me the confidence to wear no bra!!. and also the extra 'boobs' gave hubby a shock at the altar!! lol

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Lol. Ive just bought a gorgeous strapless bra so i deffo want to wear it. Fingers crossed the seamstress lady my OH's mum knows can do what I want inside the next 4 weeks!

    I had a maggie CINDY it is stunning and really beautiful dress :D I wore mine for 9 hours but mil did the corset up too tight and i nearly passed out after 2 hours of wearing it!! make sure it is not too tight. I had padding put in so i didnt have to wear a bra, I had a panel in the back which i had fixed in as it kept moving, I am tiny and had a size 4 US dress, I think the photo is on here!

    I remember the lady in the shop i brought my dress from saying 'once your in a maggie dress.. your in!'.:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Boy was she right, i got sis-in-law to do my corset up as tight as she could and it kept all me 'bits' well in place!!, gave me great posture to and hide all lumps and bumps!:T
    well in them days didnt really have lumps and bumps had size 8 dress but after having my daughter in aug 06 deff got them now!:rotfl: :rotfl:


    I know maggie dresses arent exactly 'moneysaving' but i would recomend to anyone if you have the money cause i should imagine they are pricey 2nd hand to then take the plunge and get one you wont regret it!!

    I'm still in two minds - my head says sell it, I have no use for it, my heart says but if your wedding dress. :confused:
