Help finding a dress

Help finding a dress 1
I an having a Halloween/gothic themed wedding and want to do a black dress. Found this dress on Etsy that I have fallen in love with but had a funny feeling about the Etsy shop. All the pictures are cropped weird, heads and feet of models cut off, like they were trying to take out watermarks. Did an image search and found the original photos are from a Japanese website that not not look trustworthy. 😭 Please has anyone seen a dress like this anywhere? I can post more pictures if needed.

    Maggie Sottero has a few black wedding dresses that might fit the look you’re going for! I found this one just by googling “Maggie Sottero black wedding dress”

    As must as I love that dress it was way over my budget sadly. Maggie Sottero dresses I could totally see myself wearing. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Since you love that specific dress, it might be better to have it made.

    Cocomelody can do serious customizations if you find a silhouette to work with. They can add sleeves, change color, etc.

    Are you sure the Japanese website is the original and not vice versa? Often times Chinese knock off sites steal Etsy images, I've rarely seen it the other way around (though of course it's possible!) That Etsy store does appear to have high ratings.
    You may have luck just checking another Etsy seller Smiley smile

    I was surprised also but the Japanese website has the full pictures with watermarks.

    There's an Etsy shop called Wedding Dress Fantasy. They have a storefront location in Teaneck, NJ called couture de bride, I think. She does a lot of custom stuff, especially black dresses. They may not look exactly like your picture but maybe it would help?

    That's so wild, I'm surprised the shop has such good reviews! Are there any pictures in the reviews from past buyers? They may be stealing the design, but if their work is good..? 🙈 that being said, the lack of photos of their own work means that even if they are a talented seamstress, they have not yet made this dress and therefore it may be different Smiley atonished
    Best of luck!!

    On Etsy, search by US only and that might help.

    You could always see about getting your dress made custom. I am getting mine done through Anomile 😊💛

    Look on Cocomelody. They can customize your dress and have multiple colors to choose from.

    Have you considered buying a dream dress in white and then having it dyed black?
