Etsy gown designer

Did anyone have their dress made by an etsy designer? I think I would like to go that route and would love some recommendations/advice.
How does that process work? My obvious concern is getting something that looks nothing like the pictures and has loose ends and what not. So if there is a designer out there who has proven quality work I would love to know it! 
Thank you!

    Maybe if you tried posting this in Attire and Accessories they could help?
  • Look at the feedback to see what other customers said. If the person has a seperate website, that can be good to look at and they might have pictures of customers in their gowns.


    I'm getting mine done by ieie (she has a seperate website ieieshop.com). I asked about her on Attire and she was recommended by another knottie. It was pretty easy to order. I emailed back and forth with her a few times about dresses, she set up the order, and I paid and sent her my measurements (I got them done at a tailor). I should have my dress in a few weeks.

    Oh my gosh! I looooove ieie's dresses, please let us know how it turns out.  My wedding is still a long way off, so I don't want to start trying to order now, but I'd really like to hear your feedback on the dress when it arrives!
