Because you can not return the dressed i originally only bought one so i could see if the colour was right and the quaility of it too. So i only ordered that in a size 12 rather than made to measure so it did arrive quite quick i think it was only 2-3 weeks at the most. But i think it they make it per measurements then it take longer.
Soon as i can i will post a pic.
But i have to say i was very impressed and one of my bridesmaids and my mum saw it today and they say exactly the same.

Hi I bought all 4 bridesmaid dresses off light in the box for all 4 inc postage we paid £180 roughly. The quality is fantastic and the fabric they use is brilliant my girls love them i would suggest anyone to use them. They arrived within 2 weeks and we were packed well so they didnt get damaged in the post.
Hope that helps

are the dresses copies of designer dresses? I am just a bit worried about paying out for dresses that have never been tried on.

I am having two bridesmaids (one curvy and one not so curvy) and we have been dress shopping and it quickly became apparent that it was going to be hard to find a style to suit both shapes (and one in which they both felt happy with)

I am also having 3 flowergirls so the style suiting would not be an issue.

£180 all in is an utter bargain!

Oh by the way girls - I ordered the swatch book and just wanted to let you know that the swatches you see on screen are pretty accurate to the actual fabrics! Obviously this varies from screen to screen but you get the general idea... just beware of import tax, just got my bill today for about £11 ish - that was only for the swatches, so expecting more like £60 for the dresses (haven't yet ordered them)...
Does anyone have any pics of theirs yet? xxx
