Lynn, please dont take this the wrong way- but that dress is awful! I'm not sure if its just the lady trying it on or what but the bodice if badly structured and it looks so ill fitted!!!! Was it professionally made or did someone make it themselves/ order it from abroad? keep looking though- you will find your dream dress!!!! xx

Please dont get upset by it! I'm not trying to be rude... but I know its a struggle with your budget, but you will get something amazing- I promise!! x

I agree with Honey...

It looks all out of shape to me Maybe a dress maker can sort it out for you if youre on a low budget x

I'm only looking at the pics on my phone, so can only see them small, but to me it looks like the dress is too small for the woman modelling it, wich is making it look worse than it is it worries me that she is holding it up at the front to take pics of the detailing. If she needs to hold it up standing still, what is it going to be like walking down the aisle?!
From what I can see, the dress itself looks 'ok', but remember, I am browsing on my phone so cant get a big picture!! I may change what I've said completely when I look online!!
If its near you, maybe you could go look at it in person and maybe even try it on before commiting to buying it?! x

I agree it looks too big for her and that's why it looks awful. I second going and trying it on if it's near you so that you can get a better idea. £50 is a lot of money to waste when you're on a tight budget!

 

[honeybee2]

ye thats true, didnt realise it could be too small for her. Honestly try it on because her holding it up at the front is very worrying- which is what i meant by bad bodice structure! Go try it on but dont be pressured in buying it!!

 

[krissie1234uk]

I meant too small!

 

[pinkmummy]

I have to agree with everyone else I think it is awful. I have posted a link to a lady on here selling a dress for £50 on your othwer thread. You can see the difference between the two dresses.

This dress just doesn't look fitted properly, the sewing work looks really shoddy and personally I wouldn't pay 50p for it never mind £50

I think the dress would be nice on a smaller model i'm guessing that dress is a 6-8 like you wanted and she obviously isn't it will look lovely on the right size. Go and try it on before you buy get the woman to take some pics of you in it and then we can give you better advice on wether to go for it. Then you won't waste the whole budget you have for your dress. I think it'll look lovely on the correct size she does nothing for it i'm afraid would have been better showing it on a hanger.

 

[katieandbump]

Forgot to say the gorgeous dress in buy and sell on here is only £50 too but i guess that would be out of the question because it would need altering which would prob cost another £100 definitely get some pics of you in the above dress.

 

[aly888]

Having now looked at it on my laptop, I definately stand by my original comment of thinking the model is too large for the dress (which does it no favours at all). If she will let you go see it and try it on then i'd say it's worth a visit, but I still think you will be able to find a good quality dress on ebay for £50 (unless you are really tall, in which case you might struggle!)

 

[lynne192]

i am really small so it might fit me alot better than her, apprently she thought she was a size 8-10 and when she had the dress made for her it was too small and then she put on more weight.

 

[buttonnose82]

the model is making the dress look awful, I would like to see it on someone that is the correct size as I do think it would look better

however

You said you thought it was lovely, to me that says you are willing to make do, you should describe your potential wedding dress as beautiful or amazing, 'lovely' makes me think you wouldn't be 100% happy with it

Hope that makes sense

 

[tmr1234]

the pics dny do any thing the dress it is a nice dress if it was on the right size person her boobs are way to bid for it and it needs a hoop under to flow it out a bit you can see she is way to big for it with the lace at the back it is almost under her arms.

any dress even 1 thats £1000s will look really bad if on the wrong size person the dress its self is nice if you see past the shap on her

 

[princess_bump]

i think you should go try it on sweetie, but from the pictures i don't think it's your 'one'. don't feel disheartened you will find it, regardless of budget! have you looked at all in the monsoon sale? xx

 

[honeybee2]

yes!!!! sales!!!!!! you have over a year and a half to go- honestly, january sales is for the win!!!! Debenhams have an amazing january sale on wedding dresses!!!

Lynn I can understand your excited about buying the dress, but with your budget and so much time to go, I'd deffo leave it for a bit. Instead of searching- it will come to you in due course I promise!!

You will regret it if you dont wait for the sales!

Good luck xx

 

[aly888]

I agree with honey...you have plenty of time to find something. I know it's exciting buying the dress (if I had the money I would have ordered my dress months ago...without even trying it on. and would probably have regretted it!!) but when on a budget, the sales really really are your friends. You might find in the run up to xmas there are alot of dresses on ebay too. From women who got married this year selling their dresses for some extra xmas money

 

[lynne192]

not excited at all about this, i am not that bothered tbh lol i just want everything sorted so i can stop worrying about the money lol....i know on a budget i wont get anything that will blow me away so not going to try and kid myself gonna look at the sales just looking around really

 

[honeybee2]

ye, its a good idea to get a feel of things lynn, but dont rust into buying it- loads around )

 

[lynne192]

yeah was gutted seen beautiful one on ebay and was bidding on it and my OH and DS were jumping and shouting at me so lost it lol ah well my luck only ended at £35 too
