My Dream Polka Dot Dress

First I want to say thank you to Helen for her attention to detail, patience, and being willing to answer all of my questions during this process.

The Story:
I tried on the Sherri Hill version of this dress 10 years ago but it was many sizes too big. I could not find the dress in smaller sizes and gave up looking. I kept dreaming about this dress but it was too expensive to get custom-made... but then I found Lunss! All they needed were the photos I had collected of the dress and my measurements. The process was easy and I could not believe how quickly the dress was made and delivered!! (They even found a belt like the original but I ended up loving it without the belt)

The Dress
Right out of the package, this dress was gorgeous. The only part that did not fit quite right was the bodice in the bust area but that is a simple trip to the dry cleaners and for $20 CAD the bust area is being altered. The measurements were correct from Lunss but of course clothing can fit differently once it is put on, so I do not see this as an issue. I added a petticoat underneath for volume and Voila, my dream dress!!

I love it, I am happy! My only advice is to set some extra cash aside for a petticoat (if required) or any minor alternations after your dress arrives.

Overall amazing work, great price, and attention to detail Lunss!

Hello Helen!

The dress rooms great. Just a few questions before I approve the dress.

Is the belt removable? Could you include a photo of underneath the skirt portion of the dress? Will I need a petticoat or will the dress have the same structure when I wear it?

Looks great*

avatar - HelenHan

Hi Zoey,

We are glad to hear that the dress reaches your satisfaction. YES! The dress looks beautiful, and also quite close to the original!😊

1, The belt is detachable.

2, The dress in the pictures is not wearing a petticoat. We made the dress a layer of hard mesh, lining, and dotted fabric, which totally has three laters. So it has some structure.

Of course, it is better if wear a separate petticoat underneath. I suggest you prepare a small petticoat, in case you needed one. 😊

Hello Helen,

I finally got my dress from UPS. I tried it on and the bust/top portion doesn't fit me 😭

avatar - HelenHan

Hi Zoey,

Im sorry to hear that the bust area doesn't fit well.
So, I just checked with our production, and they confirmed the they made dress in strict according to the specific custom measurements below...

IMG_4074
I suggest you can get a local tailor to alter it? We have leave of 2cm in each side seam, so total have 4-5 cm tolerance on both sides. I hope it helps...

Please let me know if you need any assistance. Thanks.
