Wedding dress

Personally, this strikes me as one of those “if it’s too good to be true, it isn’t” situations. The fabric and materials cost alone for that dress would likely cost about $170, not including labor. Though not quite as cheap, Azazie is a reputable site that has dresses for under $600. Looks like they do have some for around $100-$200, but they are more simple designs.

I don’t know if I would trust eBay. I have had good luck finding dressmakers on Etsy though! I would just say to make sure you look at reviews. You definitely want someone who has LOTS of recent reviews (especially reviews with photos). And also try to find somebody with a good return policy.

That is quite a detailed dress for only $170. I would be skeptical. Are there any reviews for that seller? Even better if there are reviews that also include photos of dresses they've made for other customers. If there are no (or not many) positive reviews, or if that seller has not been listed on eBay for very long, I would look elsewhere for a dress.

I am a seamstress, and there is NO WAY that dress will be quality at $170. Fabric alone (even if on sale) is $22 a yard (that is lace embroidery on the front) and that gown has a minimum of 8 yards! Either look local or go to a trusted we site with a good return policy.

There is no way a gown could be made & look like that for $170.
