Yes they can be different but it can delay the process of your order. You will be contacted by our fraud prevention department for further information regarding the order.

expand

How do I find the correct size?

On every product detail page you will have the option to view the size chart for the designer of the dress you are ordering. If you are in between sizes we suggest going up to the larger size because those alterations are easier. Keep in mind that over 90% of special occasion dresses need alterations. We are not responsible for dresses that do not fit, those size charts are direct from the manufacturers and they cut their dresses according to those size measurements.

expand

What is a wear date?

A wear date is the date in which you need the dress for or the latest that you will accept the dress. The longer the wear date the better chance of you receiving your dream dress.

expand

What if I want a dress in a color that is not listed?

The colors that we list on the product detail page are the only colors in which that style dress is produced in. We also show all the pictures we have available so if the picture is not shown we can not show you that dress in that color.

expand

Can I see the dress in other colors?

Unfortunately, we are only allowed to send or post pictures provided to us by the manufacturers of the dresses we sell. Not all colors of the dresses are pictured by the manufacturers and therefore all the pictures you see are the only ones we have available. The only thing you can try to do is find another dress by that same company called the same color and it will be the same depending on the fabric.

How long will it take to get the dress I want to order?

Because there are 100's of orders coming in daily there is no way for us to provide a guaranteed ship date until after you place an order. Inventory moves very fast. All you have to do when you order is put the date you need the dress by and the order department will let you know if they can deliver it by that date. If for some reason they can not meet your date your card will not even be charged.

What is an estimated ship date?

Your estimated ship date is the date the dress is estimated to ship out. This can sometimes vary by a day or two but most times it ships earlier. Please note this is not your delivery date it is the date we are receiving the dress from the warehouse and plan to ship it out to you.
