any1 got or getting dress made??

just wondering has any1 gone this route? cant find a dress i love. advice please on this please tanx

yup - bought bottom half and bought a pattern for an oscar de la renta top half which my aunt made - i adore it!

Getting mines made inDubai Vera Wang but alot nicer if I do say so myself.. Very excited although it would be nice to see the final dress to try on v excited...

Me me me I went to the dressmaker on Friday and she's got the best ideas! I brought her pics of dresses I liked...you know, the back of this one, the top of that one etc. She has loads of samples to try on too. She showed me all the materials, and went through the styles that would and wouldn't suit me. She then did up a gorgeous sketch of the dress and gave me two prices....a minimum and a maximum depending on how much detail I wanted and which material I pick. She's absolutely fantastic. A friend of mine got her dress made a couple of years ago and it was unique and so beautiful! The dressmaker I went to is Paula Cullen, phone: 01-4558233, and she's in Crumlin

I was the same as yourself - I just couldn't see what I wanted. So bit the bullet and getting it made. I have to admit - I'm a little bit nervous as to how it will turn out. I just hope that the designer has in his head what I have in my head

My mum is making mine... I have NO idea what I want, but she's been dressmaking on the side for... well... EVER! I know I'm in good hands.

tanx for the replys i like different parts of different dresses so maybe i could go to some1 and see what we could come up with. thanks for the number in crumlin but im in munster, shes sounds great. hope it works out. going to 1 more shop so if i dont see anything im going to look into getting one made. its a nice touch getting your mum to make the dress. best of luck to ye all getting them made enjoy the long weekend, hope it drys up!!
