Eve of Milady - similar?

Hi ladies, in all of your dress shopping, have you come across a designer that is similar to Eve of Milady but less $$? Someone had suggested Demetrios at the Macy's Bridal Salons?

TIA

A few people thought my dress was an Eve of Milady and it wasn't. It was a Moonlight design gown. Their designs look similar, but about a fraction of the price of Eve of Milady.

Total with alterations my gown came out to $1800, but had I shopped around I could have found my gown for less.

I second the Moonlight Bridal reccomendation. The dress I originally wanted was an Eve of Milady. When I went to RK Bridal in the city, and showed them a pic of it, they brought out a dress that was almost identical to it, but for about $3000 cheaper! Check out their website at: www.moonlightbridal.com
They have a great selection. Happy hunting! LOL!

Definitely look into Moonlight. I chose my dress because it was so similar to Eve, only much more affordable. I shopped around for prices and Burton's was able to offer me the dress at $875. Make it a point to give them a call for a price quote. Also give Phyllis from gownfind a call too. I later found out she could have gotten me the same dress for $840. Good luck!!

Looks like Moonlight can only be found at a few small stores on LI - going to some of the larger stores like Centereach or Paradise or Bay Shore, hoping to find some similar styles.

Thanks!

Re: Eve of Milady - similar?

Wow, saw some beautiful dresses by Moonlight, I wish the pictures on the website were a bit larger! Also liked Jasmine and Casablanca, same price range.

Thanks for some great suggestions! We will make those calls. If anyone has a pic or a style # and would like to share it, please post!
