Buying a dress online

I recently went to try on dresses (yay!) and I fell in love with a Maggie Sottero dress. It was rather pricey. After going home, I googled it and noticed that i found the exact dress online for half the price! I know people have obviously bought dresses online but I wanted to know people's different experience with online dress buying. How do I know if a website is "trustworthy"? Here is the link: http://www.topbridaldress.com/product.php?productid=3344 TIA!!

Re: Buying a dress online

  • I don't know about that website but you should check out Pearls Place or Jay's Bridal (I ordered my dress from Jay's). Maggie Sottero has a bottom price that they will sell their dresses for. If you find a dress that is much, much lower online than what you saw in the store I would be careful. Maggie's are also only sold in places that have actual store fronts. Pearls Place and Jay's are actual store in the south.

  • Hey Ash,I was pretty stoked when I saw topbridaldress.com, too, but a google search led to this message board actually:http://talk.theknot.com/boards/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=57176936&forumid=15For an authentic dress, I'm pretty sure Pearl's Place and RK Bridal carry Maggie Sottero (because I'm trying to locate a discounted MS dress too!).  I can't remember their numbers, but look them up online and give them a call for a free quote.  Good luck in the search!
  • Thank you so much for the information! I thought it had to be too good to be true that the price was sooo low. That's such a shame that they can get away with a scam like that by posting the "real" MS dress and then they ship you something that is fraud.
  • I bought my dress online (it's a Marisa) from Victoriasbridal.com  They have a real store in Florida and do a similar thing as RK with the price discount.  I love my dress, it was perfect, and much much less online.
