I saw this dress (
clicky) on Pinterest yesterday and absolutely fell in love. It is exactly what I have been searching for even though I hadn't realized that until I saw it.
The issue is that it is one of a kind, sold, and much too small. There is a Chinese site selling a knock-off version but I just don't trust the quality. I briefly considered having something custom made, but I don't think that's in the budget. The most I can really afford to spend is $1,000 and I am hoping to spend a lot less.
Has anyone seen anything similar? I love everything about it but particularly the delicate lace/embroidery at the top, the neckline, and the high waist.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
