I bought this dress for taking on a cruise and i used it for a Christmas party. I got many compliments from complete strangers I sew and I know that I would barley have been able to buy the fabric and notions for what this cost. Excellent construction and received it in a timely manner. This is the fourth dress that I have bought from this company and I have always gotten exactly what I ordered and I've been pleased every time. I order a custom fit and I never need to alter it. I have never tried to return a dress so I can't speak to the problems that people have complained about. I do wonder if some of the problems people have is not correctly measuring before ordering or not having the imagination to realize that a dress in size 20 isn't going to look the same as it does on the model. I have a pretty good idea of how certain styles work with my figure so I avoid the ones that I know won't flatter me.
I have a few suggestion if you are serious about getting a good fit. First, go with the custom fit. The extra cost will more than make up for the alterations you many have to make. Second, measure very accurately. Get a friend to help. Don't add or subtract an inch thinking that you need to get the right fit, They get it right if you send in the correct measurements. Finally, If you are planning to buy an expensive dress or wedding dress, find one in a similar cut in the $100 range. In the world of wedding dresses $100 isn't much to pay to be sure that it fits the way you expected. And you get an extra dress.

I didn't expect couture and for the price the quality was very good. BUT, it took too long. I purchased a few items that I planned to take for a trip about three weeks before the trip thinking that they would come in time. Instead it took 6 weeks before I got my order. I didn't expect overnight but 6 weeks is way too long. Also the sizing is on the small size so order a size up and order WAY in advance.

These guys are really incompetent. I have ordered twice now, think that I would have learned from the first time. First time I ordered 2 yards of a very large, repeating pattern. They sent me two, one yard pieces, which were useless. This most recent time i ordered 4 1 yard pieces of stretch lace in different patterns. They sent 2 yards of the same lace pattern an a yard of cotton canvas. They did refund my money both times but really that's not what I wanted. I had to pay shipping and I ordered mostly for convince, which it was not.
