Anomalie Fabric Samples

Jasmine, on August 9, 2019 at 2:08 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 32

Hi All,

I am BEYOND ecstatic and I just wanted to share my experience thus far. I am one step closer to getting my custom dress made. Anomalie sent me my custom sketch of my dress and lace options through my profile which I already approved. The next step was to receive the fabric for my dress which was contained in my fabric sample box that I received last night. I just opened it a little bit ago and already approved the fabrics through my profile.

They also included an Anomalie measuring tape, suggested shoe store pamphlet, gummy bears (which I'm probably not even going to touch because they were in the mail for so long) AND they even included a swatch for the groom. My ENTIRE experience with Anomalie has been over the top amazing and I'm so excited in continuing this process!

    YES! They've been great. At first I was a bit nervous being that it's an online company but I'm so glad I did it! I'm able to keep track of every step through my online profile and get updates when they send me something.

    I'm still a bit nervous about it. I want my own personal dress no one has had, but I also dont want to hurt the pockets.

    I totally get it. The main reason I even went custom is because I wasn't really loving anything I tried on. This dress is my one splurge. Their dresses start at $1K. Because of the simplicity of my dress, they quoted me $1,250 which I think is still a bit crazy for a dress but for custom, not too shabby lol. I wish you the best of luck finding your perfect dress!!

    Not a problem! I was recently emailed stating that my dress has been sent to the production team. They said I would be updated throughout the process. I'm not exactly sure if they will just tell me a timeline or if they will actually send any progression photos. The whole process has been so easy and comforting. I'm still nervous for when I receive it. I have an estimated arrival date for January! I'll let you know 😁

    I got my dress in June. It was all rainbows and butterflies until I got it. Not once did they update me on the dress or send pictures in the process. Had they done that I would have seen that they made my dress ALL wrong. I wanted scalloped sleeves and the lace I picked out couldn’t do scalloped so they just did what they wanted instead and I hated it. It was supposed to be fit and flare and it wasn’t. The top wasn’t fitting right and the dress was about 2 feet two long. Yes they say to plan for alterations but with a custom dress this seemed excessive. My alterations came to $420.

    HOWEVER, because the skirt was made so poorly and created a ripple in the back, they refunded me the full amount of my alterations. It’s not the dress of my dreams NOR is it the dress I designed but it is closer and cheaper than anything else I tried on.

    My advice is to not expect perfection. And if you have to get a new dress you will be fine. All in all I hope it works better for you than it did for me.

    I bought a dress from Anomalie as well. They estimated my dress to be delivered in December but I got an email about two weeks ago saying it was done already. They said it should be shipping to my mother's house (because I live with my fiance) this week. I've seen great reviews and I've seen terrible reviews, though the worst of the worst were from 2016 when they were still a start up. Luckily my mom is a seamstress so she can tell me whether it was worth the $1250 I paid for it or not. I have actually seen my mom make wedding and christening gowns from scratch and I'm pretty skeptical because of how fast the production of my dress was. It literally went into production Aug. 20 and less than a month later is finished? My wedding isn't until Jan 2021 so I still have plenty of time to decide my dress and Anomalie does have a 100% satisfaction guarantee so that helps ease the anxiety of it all. I just hope all of these wonderful reviews aren't a product of giving instagram influencers special treatment and making average women with less than 500 followers believe they'll get the same quality. I think that's what I more afraid of, not the disappointment of not getting what I want but the disappointment of a company that I really liked.

    Oh wow. I've heard good and bad as well but more good than bad. My dress is $1250 also! That is a bit skeptical that your dress is done so fast. Maybe because they're slow right now or your dress was just that simple to make? My dress went into production earlier this month and I was told that my dress would arrive mid January. Even if I'm not satisfied when I get my dress, I just hope they stay honest with the whole refund policy! Please keep me updated when you receive your dress. I hope it works out for you!

    I hope your dress works out too! I think mine is a bit simplistic, but it has lace throughout and the one thing I loved about Anomalie was that they hand sew any beading and/or lace on the dresses. I have the transparent mesh on my dress so my lace should be sewn on individually throughout the dress. The rest of the dress is pretty simple compared to the kind of dresses I see on their feed on Instagram. From other reviews I've seen, they do the full refund if you aren't happy so worst case scenario I get a refund and spend more money on one of the dresses that I've had my eye on. The reason I picked Anomalie was because I loved the idea of designing my own dress and because it's cheaper than most couture dresses. Some people find their dream dress cheaper and that's great! but the whole reason Anomalie is cheaper than most is because they take out the distributors that obtain their fabrics. They go straight to the source and are able to produce cheaper dresses because of that.

    I thought the same thing. I saw my dream dress but on a sketchy website. Couldn't find the designer or a respectable place to purchase online or in store. I turned to Anomalie and it's been great thus far. I just hope it continues to be that way when I actually receive my dress. I didn't think it was too terrible of a price either, especially to be custom made. Mine is pretty simplistic too and my sketch looks amazing so I guess we'll see what happens.

    Hi! My dress has just been delivered! I opened the box and it was in this large white box with “Anomalie” on it in rose gold letters! I opened and took a peek at my dress in the garment bag and it’s looking pretty good! I’m trying to figure out how the lace is sewn on because I don’t see any thread on the opposite side. I don’t want to take the dress out without my mom around to help me. I’m at her house now but she’s out with my brother until later so I’m going to wait and I date if anyone is interested!
