Thanks for your inquiry. This is Tansy at your service.

- Dress Design

Keep the original design of this dress with color alteration.

  • Silk satin fabric is soft and expensive. This dress would be more expensive than your budget if we use thick silk satin fabric. Here are some options for you.
    1. Use thick silk satin fabric, this dress will cost about *** USD.
    2. Use high quality acetate satin which is not very thick, this dress costs *** USD.
    3. Use high quality silk imported satin fabric, this dress costs *** USD.
    4. Use normal thick satin fabric, this dress costs *** USD.

- Additional Detail

  • It will come with padded cups and lining.
  • Zip closure

Any question, please kindly let me know. Thanks.

Hi Tansy! Thank you so much for the quick response as well as for that information. Could you tell me the difference of 3. And 4. Also, in your opinion do you think this dress will be flattering in that material? I have a body type similar to the models but of course some fabric shows body imperfections more so than others. What do you think about velvet? I’m getting married on a beach in Mexico in May. I wouldn’t want to be too hot but I love the shine of these fabrics. I’d love to hear your thoughts. And thank you again, I’m excited to work with you.

Here are 2 other pictures I found that might be helpful to you to best achieve the original style. I am open the the string back design if you think it will help taylor the fit. Also here’s a picture of a dress I found in velvet that I mentioned. It seems like it would be a more flattering fabric but again I’d appreciate tour artist insight since I’m just guessing :)

Thank you for your quick reply!

3. Use imported satin fabric, this dress costs *** USD. Imported satin fabric is softer and more expensive.

4. Use normal thick satin fabric, this dress costs *** USD. Normal thick satin is less expensive, stiffer.

Velvet is soft, stretchy and have great draping. It is a good fabric to achieve elegant and classic look. If it is not hot, velvet fabric is a good option, but it is slightly heavier.

Personally, high quality acetate satin is best. It can get an expensive look but cheaper than silk fabric. Also it is neither too thick nor heavy.

This dress is made of high quality acetate satin fabric for your reference.

Since this is beach wedding, how about we remove fabric to from low back with crisscross straps as below?

Zip back.

Thank you!

Hi there! So sorry work kept me busy so I’m just now seeing this. Yes, I agree a lower and lace up string back would be great. I do love the style of a lace back in the picture I sent. As for the velvet material. Do you happen to know the cost of that? Also, I’ll keep my alerts on so I can answer you in between work so I don’t keep you waiting. Thank you :)

I was referring to the $10 subscription I paid ontop of purchasing the dress. I signed up for that before I made the dress payment bc I was unsure.

I didn’t realize the prices were adjusted to the satin, I’m glad I caught it at the last minute :)

Will the 15% off be applied to the prices you had just mentioned?

Hi Tansy!

Along with my previous message I wanted to add that my wedding planner informed me that a May wedding in Mexico will be hot and humid. So velvet will not be best and she suggested maybe not satin either. So I came up with another option to help me decide. I’d appreciate your input and I want to apologize for putting you thru the ringer. Just back story I already purchased a wedding dress of $600 and it fits terrible, the fabric is terrible and I was so disappointed that now I overthink everything as this will be my final purchase. So again I do apologize if this is not a pleasant experience of working with me as I decide.

Anyhow, the picture of the “Potential new option” dress in black would be preferable satin top and whichever fabric you feel best for the liner underneath the chiffon. And if it’s possible for the chiffon to be less “poofy from the waist” and be more stream lined and closer to the body, that’s be great. I’d be afraid this style will Have the illusion of adding inches to around my waist and Id like to have a clean smooth transition there. The design itself front and back can remain the same. If it’s not too much trouble could you tell me the cost (With the 15% off please) for the dress as well as your thoughts. Thank you!!!!!!

Thank you for your quick reply!

I am sorry that Fabrics, sketches, accessories, clearance items, membership( 9.9 USD you paid for), rush service and shipping cost are not eligible for a refund and exchange. Thank you for your kind understanding.

*** USD I set is for making this dress from velvet fabric. The price might be different if you choose satin fabric or change another design.

Yes, 15% discount could be used on this order, as it is placed and paid before 31st Dec. I noted that you did not fill in coupon code when placing order, so I will reset remainder after 15% discount off after confirming all details with you.

I think you will stop here as we are professional in dress-making and we are confident in our works.

Thank you!

Would you like to customize this A-line dress with these details? Please provide link taking me to check bigger and clearer dress details.
5fdc440710ff8

  • Dress color: light ivory

  • Bodice would be made of satin. Come with build-in-bra. Is satin a must-have? If yes, silk satin is advised. Otherwise, we could use lace fabric.
    5fdc4437b54af

  • The original skirt is made of tulle with lining underneath. You would like to replace tulle with flowy chiffon and lining.
    5fdc44afda361
    - I outlined tulle fabric for your reference.
    5fdc45e9617ea
    - How about we replace tulle with thin chiffon fabric which is sheer and replace lining fabric with 100D chiffon fabric which is semi-sheer? Double chiffon fabrics might be slightly sheer, but not too much.
    100D chiffon fabric would have double slits as original design.
    - Is this A-line skirt shape okay?

Please illustrate "the illusion of adding inches to around my waist and Id like to have a clean smooth transition there" for our reference, because I do not quite understand it.

Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Hi, yes I’m ok to stop there. I only asked bc you had sent me the info on it and it did not reflect correctly when I purchased the membership before I purchased the dress. And as for the 15% off I again didn’t know of it until you sent and was only inquiring about this bc I wasn’t aware of the fabric quotes that were sent along.

Anyhow, the dress had changed significantly so that clears up spent things (Unfortunately there goes my dream dress) I will get back with you in the morning when I have a moment to screen shot and explain.

Thank you.

Hi Tansy! I hope you had a great holiday season! I apologize for the delayed response but this past month has been wild.

Anyhow I thought about what you said in regards to the lace. And I found a picture similar to the one I sent but with a lace bodice and slip with one slit that I love more. So thanks for mentioning it!

I can’t exactly tell in the picture it is took or coffin but the transition of the fabric at the seam is what I was talking about. I like this better than the back dress as it gives a little body but not too much. I don’t care for as much (let’s just call it chiffon) I don’t want it to be too heavy and consuming. I found with a dress I recently tried on that is similar to this, is that I could take quite a bit of the chiffon and be happy. I do want to add that I like where the chiffon stops before the slot and where her hand is at.

This is not as simple as a dress so I don’t mind having a simple back but I do like that it is a thin halter that like the one in the black dress.

I’m so sorry to switch this up yet again but I think were there!

Ok, I’ve decided. Finally! Thanks for bearing with me. I’m going to stick with my original idea. I feel I’ve strayed too much and keep compromising so I’m going to do simple and clean.

Here is exactly what I’d like but please let me know if you need more clarification in any way :)

-I would like it to be form fitting but not as completely tight on the lower half as the green dress. i like the tight and fitting empire waist and top but I like the movement in the rust dress. It still fit tights and forms your body. I would like the fit to be a little off the butt as in the white and rust dress, NOT as significant as the white dress tho but not nearly as tight fitting as the green dress.

-I would like the back to look that of the purple dress. Halter cross cross, low back but NO cowl draping.

-I would like the exact draping and fit of the green dress.

-I would like the exact length of the green dress.

-Imported light ivory rich fabric (per our convos I I think this would give the best fit but please confirm)

Thank you! And I’m ready to submit my order today once you confirm :)

avatar - Tansy

Customize this dress with these details.

600111a0ddb31

  • The main fabric & color would be light ivory imported satin fabric.
  • Do you mean change skirt shape to the following one? It is different to white skirt shape.
    6001131457860
  • Keep skirt in floor length.
  • Halter cross cross low back as purple dress but NO cowl draping.
    - Please provide purple dress picture for us to check. As I do not find it here.

Thank you!


avatar - jessc093

Yes, the orange skirt is what I’d like. Not as tight as the green dress but still form fitting around the curves and not as loose as the white dress.

Oh I’m sorry it must not have loaded, here you go!


can can you please confirm the price. Thank you.

6001249f87152

avatar - Tansy

Crisscross back would be as below as below, but fabric covering hips will be flat without cowl draping design.

New design costs *** USD. With 15% discount off, the price should be *** USD. You already paid *** USD. Thus, remainder should be *** USD. I have set price, please kindly check it.

Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Perfect. I’ll go ahead and pay the rest now.

I have a soft measuring tape arriving on Saturday and will send you the measurements then.

And I just wanted to note that I do want a low back on the dress. I was looking at the purple dress again as imagining without the cowl and if it’s possible to go even lower than that. Even if it means adding another cross cross. (Looks like 3 inches I’m not sure)

And that’s the last of the changes. I’m finalized with what we’ve decided :)

The lowest backline we could do on the back is 10 cm from natural waist. Otherwise your panties will expose.

Hi tansy I have a few concerns.

1. The draping of the cowl neck seems higher than is on the green dress. It wouldn’t show the same amount of cleavage.

2. The silhouette of the “skirt” is not of that that I asked which was to show off my curves and be of that in between the green dress and orange dress. I do not want it a line. I want it to have a form fitting below the butt but not nearly as tight the green dress. As in the photo I resent the orange dress shows that it is fitting as I suggest where it just drapes off the body but you can still see an hourglass body shape.

Can these changes be made?

601aac869b9eb601aaceb8b11b601aad149bbe9

I don’t want to be negative I know you worked hard but I really wanted my dream dress. And I feel compromising even in small ways for such a simple dress will make a big difference. The quality looks great and I appreciate your time.

I understand there are things that can not be avoided. For instance the cross cross back has more cross cross that the purple dress that I wanted but I’m sure you had to do that for a good fit or some other reason. So even tho I don’t prefer it I do understand it might be for a better function. But for the cowl neck I wanted the exact fit as the green dress and for the silhouette an inbetween of green dress and orange.

I apologize

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your reply!

  1. This dress was made by following your measurements instead of our mannequin and it does not fit our mannequin. Additionally, our mannequin is very stiff whilst your skin is soft. Thus, when you wear this dress, the V-neck would be similar to the original one. (Minor difference might be caused by different body size.)
    - If we adjust the V-neck to fit our mannequin, it will do not fit you. Please kindly confirm this.

  2. I am sorry that our mannequin does not have leg. It is hard for the pictures to show the exact skirt shape. If measurements you provided are correct, when you wear this dress and do the same pose, you could get a similar look as below.

Well now that makes sense! Thank you for clarifying and beautiful work! I just approved the dress but it’s still asking for payment although I have paid in full. Once that is cleared up of love for it to be shipped before your holiday. I have included a picture of all charges. Again, thank you.

I will ship dress ASAP. Thank you for your kind patience.

Hi tansy your work is wonderful and detailed. Thank you. The only thing is the length is a little off. What are my options for lengthening the dress? I would prefer not to have my feet showing even tho I am wearing sandals but even so the dress doesn’t hit the ground, it is inche(s) above the ground and makes it seem even shorter when I walk. 60254d6535c06

I know your on holiday and will await till the 19th however I just wanted to let you know the beautiful satin dressed you made will be used for my reception dinner. It’s perfect to avoid making it longer which would manly be needed for pictures etc.


can I place another order with you? These two are the ones I am deciding between. If you can please provide quotes.

1. I’d like to make the lace a health dress with over skirt. Like we talked about but I’m not very fond of the beaded lace. Is there another option?


2. Boho dress with detailed short underlining.

Thank you very much for your kind review.

Would you like to use this same light ivory imported satin fabric like your previous dress'?

The bodice could be made of grid fabric and decorated with lace applique as listed below. No beading & sequins.


This dress costs about *** USD.

As you are kindly give us good review, I apply to give you some discounts. Thus, you could pay *** USD to get this dress customized.

Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Thank you! I’d look to order the last dress please.

-the same light ivory fabric was beautiful

-the Appliqué and grid are great

-it looks like there’s a bit of a nude lining and a pretty transition so it not easily recognizable in the bust area, can we also do this?

-I do like the empire waist leads to somewhat of a form fit to show body shape but I also like that you can stand and you toes do not show.

-I was thinking half the size of the train shown but whatever you think that will esthetically balance the front.

-Are there any other measurements you need?

here is the measurement from base of neck to my shoulder to help with the cap sleeve: 5inches

here is a new measurement for my height from shoulder to floor: 58inches

i am leaving town right now to a mountain area so I do not have signal but I’d like to pay ASAP since I need the dress for wedding april 20th.

thank you so much.

Here’s another picture I found of the back.

and my credit card number as well to move forward with production. Thanks again and I’ll reach out next week when I receive signal again

Hey Tansy just a quick question. I showed my friend the dress and she said she didn’t think that was satin. Is there another material that you think the dress is made of that may look better than the satin?

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your quick reply!

  • The bodice of original dress is sheer without lining, so nude build-in-bra and model's skin show through. Please kindly confirm if you would like to keep the sheer design as original one too.
    If we add nude lining underneath, the nude bra will be covered.

  • The original dress comes with natural waist, so the waist stops at smallest portion of waist. Would you like to make bodice shorter to form empire waist?

  • Since your height is 66 inch (167.6 cm), your hollow to floor should be about 142.6 cm. If you want floor length dress, hollow to hem = hollow to floor + shoes height. ( You provided hollow to hem 54 inches (137.2 cm) for your previous dress which is shorter than your hollow to floor, so your previous dress does not touch the floor).

    - Your hollow to front hemline as marked below will be longer than 142.6 cm. What is your shoes height? We will decide the hollow to front hemline by following this dress directly.

    - I noted that you provided new shoulder to floor: 58inches (147.3 cm). The hollow to front hemline will be longer than 147.3 cm as a bit front skirt drag on the floor and you will wear shoes.
    602f1eac91ad2

  • The back train length could be slightly longer than in front.

This dress will be made by following these measurements you provided before.

Bust: 35 inch

Under bust: 29 inch

Fullest part of butt: 35 inch

Belly: 28 inch

Armsyce: 16 inch

Height: 5 feet 6 inch

From shoulder to floor: 56 inches

If needed, you could provide below measurements.

Bust Point to Top of Belt ( Dip of neckline)

Circumference of Top Of Belt

602f229c4f5dc

I have set price, please kindly check it. We will make dress after getting payment and your reply!

You'd better choose expedited delivery.

Thank you!

I am sorry that it is hard to tell the exact fabrics from the pictures.

It looks like that this dress is thicker than the previous one, so we could use thicker light ivory imported satin fabric.

The thicker imported satin is less glossy but slightly more structured.

If needed, we could use matte side to make the dress matte.

Thank you!

Hi tansy!

I just attended a wedding yesterday and wore a dress similar to this style and it didn’t feel flattering I’d like to change the shape of the skirt to this as pictured and using the material crepe. Please keep the empire waste and everything the same. Please let me know the new cost and I can pay for it then with expedited shipping thank you. 6032a0fc28b4b

6032a1893865e

Again the train doesn’t have to be as long but I would like a train. Just as long as it is proportionate to the front of the dress that will cover my feet but won’t trip me as I walk. Thank you.

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your reply!

I list all design details for your check. If anything wrong or missed, please kindly let me know.

  • Bodice design and belt as below.
    60330d7814ee6

    603310422640f
    1. The bodice is sheer without lining, so nude build-in-bra and your skin will show through.
    2. Change empire waist
    3. Belt will be made of crepe fabric.
    4. The bodice could be made of grid fabric and decorated with lace applique as listed below. No beading & sequins.

  • Skirt design as below
    603310cc977b0
    603310d5c9e97
    1. Fully lined to avoid sheerness.
    2. Come with small train. About 15 cm long.
    3. It could be made of high quality crepe fabric which is matte, stretchy.
    6033111e0aa60

Under bust: 29 inch

Fullest part of butt: 35 inch

Belly: 28 inch

Armsyce: 16 inch

Train:

I’m unsure of what 15cm will look like but I found the back of a dress that may look better with a smaller train. Here is a picture of the detailed style in #1 and the length I would like in #2 (I don’t mind if it’s more than 15cm)

Length:

I have also included a picture of how I’d like the length. Where it can cover my feet in #3 but I can easily walk #4.

Bra:

Can I have nude lining the entire front and back of the bodice. And not just the bra. Like in pic #5. I’m afraid the nude bra would be too big of a difference between my skin showing through and wouldn’t look as classy as I’d like.

Measurement:

All of the measurements remain the same

Bust to belt= 7.5 inch

Circumference of belt= 27.5 inch

Base of neck to top of the shoulder=5.5 inch

Pay:

I made the payment so that the dress can be made on time. Thank you!

Thank you for your reply!

  • Do you mean back skirt shape is as below one? Front skirt shape will be changed accordingly.
    6035addb0a237
  • Train length would be as below.
    6035adf09530a
  • Dress length depends on From shoulder to front hem: 56 inches you provided.
    Hold the measuring tape at your hollow while a friend pulls it down to the length you want your dress.

    Prompt: It seems that front skirt in picture #4 does not touch the ground, so bridal feet are exposed, whilst front skirt in picture #3 is in floor length, so bridal feet are covered. If you want the front skirt to be as long as in picture # 3 or #4, please measure hollow to hem accordingly.
    Wear shoes when taking this measurement.
    PS. It is better to make the front skirt longer, so you can alter it locally after trying it on. If we make it short, it is hard for you to lengthen it.

  • Yes, we can add nude lining to avoid whole bodice sheerness.
    - Here is our nude lining color for your check.

    6035b0b37e7fc

Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Yes.

I would like shape of #1.

I would like length of #2.

#3 and #4 is the same dress. That is my friend that got married in august and the dress she wore. I’m unsure how it was able to cover feet while standing but still able to walk in it. I suppose going longer would be ideal as you suggested and I can later hem it.

I like the nude material.

Thank you.

avatar - Tansy

Great.

We will make front skirt longer, so you will alter it locally.

We will make this dress ASAP. Thank you for your kind patience.

avatar - jessc093

Thank you I can’t wait to see what you create. My parents are excited for this one

avatar - Tansy

You are welcome.

Please kindly confirm Bust Point to Top of Belt ( Dip of neckline) and Circumference of Top Of Belt.

602f229c4f5dc

Normally, it is about 15 cm (5.9 inches) - 19 cm (7.5inches)from bust point to natural waist. Since you want empire waist, the bust point to top of belt should be shorter.

Please kindly mark out the Base of neck to top of the shoulder=5.5 inch for our reference.

Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

6037de81a86e6This is what I mean by base of neck to edge of shoulder. Please let me know if you need anything else.

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your reply!

Please kindly confirm the following measurements:

  • Bust Point to Top of Belt/ Dip of Neckline
  • Circumference of Top Of Belt


Normally, it is about 15 cm (5.9 inches) - 19 cm (7.5inches)from bust point to natural waist. Since you want empire waist, the bust point to top of belt should be shorter.

In another word, if we make the waist by following measurements, your dress waist would be lower instead of empire waist.

Bust to belt= 7.5 inch

Circumference of belt= 27.5 inch

Thank you!

Hi there! I hope production is going well! I was wondering if you have a better eta for the dress. Just bc a tailor in my area said it will take 2 weeks to complete the hem and I wanted to be sure I meet my deadline for the weddings thank you so much

avatar - Tansy

I am sorry that this dress is still pending here for waiting your measurements.

Prompt: we have bought all fabrics.

We will make this dress after getting your following measurements confirmation.

I didn’t know you were still waiting on the measurement. I figured if there was an issue there would be a follow up. Last time I sent an email in response to yours I didn’t know it didn’t send. So I was here thinking we were on the same page. I didn’t receive a follow up stating we’re still in progress because of my missing response. Will the dress be ready in time? I’m extremely worried it won’t be ready in time. I would need it in 2 weeks.

avatar - Tansy

If we make this dress now, this dress could be finished about on 10th April.

Please kindly let me know your measurements. Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

I’m not sure exactly where the empire waist would sit so I typed in the measurements I provided for you previously and it said 5 inches. I’m not sure if that is correct bc when I measure on me I am eye balling it as I don’t know where it should sit. Given the measurement I provided can you find the best spot for the empire waist?

avatar - Tansy

How about we make it about 3 cm higher than natural waist?

avatar - jessc093

If you think that would fit the best for the bust plunge line and flattering effect sure whatever you think. But more importantly when will the dress be ready? I don’t want it to be made if I can’t get it in time.

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your reply!

We will make this dress for you now. It could be finished about on 10th April.

Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Thank you! I’m mid panic mode right now so I appreciate your effort into getting it ready. If here is anything you need and I don’t respond in a day please resend. Thank you.

avatar - Tansy

I can understand you.

I am sorry that I am too busy at this peak season to re-check all orders. I will pay attention to your order. Thank you for your kind patience.

I am glad to tell you that we finished the dress, please kindly check the top of current page.

If any questions, please kindly let me know in 2 days. Or we will arrange shipment. Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

It looks great. The only thing I notice is that there isn’t the white piping following the seams on the bust. Is it possible to add this?

Also I would like to make sure that the deep v is spaced apart all the way down to the empire waist so that it shows skin, in other words a bit wider and deeper deep v.

So with that being said can we please remove the tan fabric in between the deep v.

And I just want to be sure that the transition of shape will sit on my chest as it does in the picture and not any higher or wider than in the pic. It looks like there is a flattering curve to transition from breast to shoulder.

Can we go ahead and tailor the bottom. The shape looks great and I’d be confident that my toes will not show and will fit as in the pictures I have sent you previously if tailor it to my height measurement I provide plus 1 inch or 2 inches. What do you think?60645fda7b2ee60645ff224b8f

The quality looks great and I can’t wait to try it on. Thank you for working so quickly to get it done.

Just to clarify. Here is a pic of the piping in the back too.

And a picture of how I would like the bottom to be hemmed to fit my measurements. Hiding from the measurements I gave you for my height and how the satin dress turned out to still show my feet. I would be comfortable with what you think is best so that it fits as in these two pictures I had sent in the past.

thank you!!!

606476cbaa48a

It is important to me that the train transitions as in these pictures and is not a complete circle. I’m sure it is that way since it still needs to be hemmed but I do not want it to be a full circle and the train to be the same length as in the second picture. I would like it just to fit just as these two dresses do. Thank you. 606477a4a1085
6064784abbca0

And I know that the mannequin is not my size but again just want to be sure that the sleeve length is not too short I’d rather it hang lower than sit too far up my shoulder. Thank you. 606479917b4de606479b1ea140

Hello I just would like to check in and see if the alterations could be made to reflect our conversations when I ordered the dress. Thank you.

Hello it’s been a few days and just wanted to check in

avatar - Tansy

I am very sorry for keeping you waiting, as we are too busy at this peak season. Additionally, we have 3 days off for the public holidays.

Here I confirm the alterations with you.

  1. I am sorry for it. Yes, we will add white edge for you.
    606c17184fcf3
    606c1a0e15e2d

  2. Your skin will show through the whole cleavage. No worries.
    606c177844911
    - Yes, we could make the bottom of cleavage open wider.
    606c18b0b7c5f

  3. If we remove sheer tulle from cleavage, the fabrics will do not cling to your torso and your breasts will pop out. Open plunging neckline dress is only suitable for women whose breasts are very very small. Please kindly confirm this.

  4. This dress was made by following your measurements. It does not fit our mannequin. Additionally, our mannequin is very stiff, it is hard to adjust the dress.
    - If measurements you provided are correct, you could get a similar look, except minor difference is caused by different bodice shape. No worries.

  5. The dress length depends on measurements you provided.
    - Personally, I advise you to keep this dress length. If needed, you could shorter it locally, which is very easy. If we shorten it now, it would be hard for you to lengthen it later.

  6. When you walk in this dress, the fabric will fall down vertically. as below. No worries. We just place the skirt in that way when taking pictures for you to check the mermaid shape.


  7. Your sleeve length is akin to the original one. No worries. You feel it shorter might because of different lace patterns. If needed, we could send some leftover lace applique together with this dress to you, so you can add more if needed. Thank you!




avatar - jessc093

I understand. All of that sounds great! You have my approval to move forward with everything you’ve said. You may ship once it is complete. You do not need my approval to ship if it’d be faster just to send it as soon as it is complete. Thank you!

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your reply!

  • We will add the edge for you.
    606d62d6599f6
  • Make bottom of neckline wider.

We will arrange shipment after finishing alterations. Thank you for your kind patience.

I am glad to tell you that we finished alterations.

Please kindly check the last three pictures at top of current page.

We will arrange shipment in 3 days if there is no reply. Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Thank you! Can we have it overnighted please. Thank you.

avatar - Tansy

Thank you for your reply!

We will arrange shipment ASAP. Thank you for your kind patience.

Is the piping not made of the same crepe material? It looks different. Only bc the shape of the outline of the right breast looks different than the other. Can you confirm that this is uniform, thank you.

avatar - Tansy

Do you mean the edges along neckline on front and back bodice as marked below? The edges are covered by hand-sewing beading.
6073b87a16e4a

We used beading to decorate along the edges because of followings.

  1. The edges of original dress seem to be made decorated with beading.
    6073b9d6255d9
  2. The crepe fabric is out of stock already, we contacted the fabric supplier and were told that it takes about a month for they to create this fabric. But your time does not allow it.

  3. You did not ask for using same crepe fabric to make the edge.

The last but not least, beading is the best choice not only because it could make the dress looks more expensive but also makes the bodice more delicate and beautiful.

Thank you for your kind understanding.

avatar - jessc093

Ok I only ask bc the shape of piping on the left and right breast don’t look even. It looks like it is made of yarn. I’m hoping in person it is different. The only reason I assumed it would be of crepe is bc of the uniform material and how it would lay.

avatar - Tansy

We double checked the dress before shipping.

But you can adjust it if the beading makes the neckline slightly out of shape. No worries. Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

Do you have a picture of it head on? The picture is not centered. This would help. And is beading a term of hand sewn technique or are there actual beads? Thank you.

avatar - Tansy

I am sorry that it is too late to take any more pictures, as this dress has been taken away by courier companies after you asked us to ship it over the night.

This is tracking number DHL 8582210081.

The shipping time is about 4-6 working days.

Prompt: at this peak season, the courier companies are too busy to update tracking information timely. Thank you for your kind patience.

Hi I’ve received the dress and the measurements of the dress are very off. Despite the stretch in the material there is so much fabric off of my hips, back and stomach. My body measurements are exactly of what I provided. Here are pictures. I am freaking out since I spent all my money on this dress and we leave on the 20th. Can I send it back for a refund? Can I have it tailored near me and you pay the bill? This is not what was excepted and I am very disappointed especially bc the measurements of the first dress was spot on .

Here are more picture. I got a quote of usd $250 to have the waist and butt tailored. Will you cover that. They need it tomorrow to have it done in time.

avatar - Tansy

I am sorry to hear it.

I could appy to give you 110 USD refund if you alter it locally. Please kindly let me know your toughts. Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

I went in today and they quoted me $400 for the hips and buttocks. That is far too much. That’s an extra expense that should have been included with my dress. I’m not sure how this huge mistake could have happened. Can you please provide a return shipping label so that I can return the dress for a full refund. Thank you.

avatar - Tansy

I will reply you in 24 hours, thank you for your kind patience.

avatar - jessc093

Hello it’s just at the 24hr mark. I am so very disappointed in the dress that was made with the improper measurements. My money is tied up. I don’t have a wedding dress and my wedding is less than two weeks away. I am so upset. I need a return slip and a full refund for the incorrect dress that was shipped to me.

avatar - Tansy

Sorry for keeping you waiting, as we are too busy at this peak season.

I checked this dress plate and found that the dress size is correct- this dress WAS made from the measurements you provided.

Please kindly provide a video of measuring your body to for us to figure out why this dress does not fit.

Please email video at cs@lunss.com

Please kindly check our refund policy by clicking here. Thank you!


avatar - jessc093

There was a huge error on your end. Not mine. Here is a picture of the measurements I provided. Being that this is my second dress ordered from you and that my wedding being the most important day of my life and I am stressed bc I do not have a dress and it is bc of no fault of my own I would hope that your company would do the right thing and take the dress back and provide a full refund. I would assume in a busy season my particular case would be a priority. It very much upsets me that I feel that I am fighting for what should be a very understanding matter.

Measurements provided vs measurements today:

Waist: 25 inch and 25.5

Hips: 32 inch and 32.5

Fullest part of butt: 35 inch and 35


607edf25e7463

607edec6b3156607edf04b17e5

This is over a 4 inch difference from the measurements I provided. As you can tell in e pictures the hem is way to long and we discussed this. The train doesn’t sit as it should and is too big as well.

607ee15290558607ee1cca79a7

And here is a specific note confirming my dress that I had approved will not have beading on the bodice and yet it has a ton of bead work. This all the way around is not the dress I asked for. 607ee30d58ca3

avatar - Tansy

I am sorry for it.

This customized dress was made just for you based on your measurements, choice of fabrics and customizations. The finished images were also provided for your confirmation before shipping. And we shipped it as you said "you do not need my approval to ship if it’d be faster just to send it as soon as it is complete. "

Yes, at the beginning, I said the bodice does not have beading & sequins. But when you asked for adding edge, I told you that we hand sew beading to form it and you did not disgree.

Based on our refund policy, this customized item can not be returned after shipping, but we will alter it until you satisfy with it.

Being that you know it is a wedding and the measurements were NOT fitted for me it is not possible to do so. There was a mistake on your end, not mine. Can you make an exception in returning this dress. That is very unprofessional if not.

avatar - Tansy

I am sorry for it.

I applied to my company, if you return this dress back, I could give you 70% refund. ( You will cover the shipping fee).

If you do not send it back, I could give you 50% refund. Please kindly let me know your thoughts. Thank you!

avatar - jessc093

I will accept the 50% refund.

Thank you for your reply!

I will inform our financial department to process refund. It would take about 7 days for the bank to transfer money. Thank you for your kind patience.
