Are these the same dresses?

So I went to Kleinfeld's in New York City to try on dresses. My plan was to find a dress I love and order it offline..even if I didn't find one, I still wanted the 'Kleinfeld Experience'...But lucky me, I found my dress. It's called Knockout by Kenneth Pool. I have a great website called www.storeofdress.com that I have purchased from before and I think my dress is on there as a Kenneth Pool, but I don't know..some parts look alike and some don't. Also, I've looked through literally all of Kenneth Pool's and Amsale's collections to see if I can find a dress that matches the one on storeofdress.com better..then I'd know for sure that it's not my dress. Only problem is, I haven't found any other dress that is even closely similar. I look at both pictures every couple days and one day I convince myself that they're the right dress and then the next I'm not so sure. Notice the descriptions of each dress. Kenneth Pool's site doesn't say anything about a detailed hem and I don't remember a detailed hem when I had it on, just tulle. However, on storeofdress.com it clearly states a detailed hem, the fabric looks heavier, and the beading? Maybe it's just the lights that make some of the beading look like it's not there? Then again..the styles are the exactly the same, as well as the necklines.

I would just order it from storeofdress.com to find out if it's the same and just send it back if it's not, but the return policy is that you won't get 30% your money back.

So what do you guys think? Is it the same dress? And if you can't tell..should I just order it and take the chance? HELP!! =]

The first link is a picture of my dress on the runway. The second link is the dress on storeofdress.com.

I'm not sure if you realize, but it's not made by Kenneth Pool on that site. This is from their FAQ page:
'storeofdress.com is able to offer our featured collections online 30% - 40% off retail prices for 2 key reasons. First, the dresses in storeofdress.com are the produced by our own factory. '
Maybe that would be why it looks different?

They are similar, but it is NOT an actual Kenneth Pool. They would not be selling it at that price if it was actually a KP. It is a knockoff.

they're not the same. Agreed, its a knock off.

They are the same cut but they are different dresses. the design under the bust is bigger on the website one and the bottom has alot more beading and detail.
