As some of you know, I ordered a dress from AliExpress, a recreation of the Alfred Angelo Belle dress from their first Disney Fairytale collection. I had a DB dress as backup, and this was somewhat of an experiment.
The dress is gorgeous and well made, from good materials. The seams are all finished (except the tulle hem, which would make it lay funny,) and to be honest, the tulle is nicer than what was on the original that I tried on, which was really stiff and scratchy.
The beading and embroidery on the bodice is very well done, there are just a couple of loose beads I need to tighten. It has plastic boning, and the embroidery is gorgeous. The corset back is well done, and they threw in a second lacing for it, unfortunately it was red rather than the burgundy I requested, but no biggie as it was free.
It took the full 15 business days to be made, but was shipped via UPS International Express Saver, which is a 2-day shipping.
