Did anyone choose and order BM dresses yet?

I posted this on the '06 and '07 boards because I'm all nervous now. If any of you have ordered this dress, please take this into consideration!!! I PANICKED today when I heard this and hope that it was a fluke!

I have always loved the Bill Levkoff style #966 for my BM's, and recently discovered that style #454 is the same dress with a flower-embroidered sash. Now I like either dress, but have a problem!

So, I was looking at my bosses wedding pics today (she was married last month and looked beautiful!!!!!) and noticed her BP wore the BL #966. It looked AMAZING on all the girls. As I looked closer at the pic, I noticed that on the seam, under the arm of each girl, there was a safety pin. She told me to be very careful when ordering that dress. She wasn't sure if it was a fluke or just what happens to that material.....the morning of the dresses were fitted perfectly, but half way through the day it loosened on them! Their tops were falling off and they had to be safety pinned. Now, if this happened to one girl or even two, then I'd say maybe it was a fluke. But for ALL girls to have it fitted, some tightly, and then to fall off, there must be something wrong with that dress!!!

So, after all this my question is obvious: Did anyone you know use the 966 or 454 dress? If so, did this happen to them too? TIA and sorry it's so long!

Also, if you've worn/ordered BL, but didn't use either of these dresses, did you have a similar experience?

I just started looking at BM dresses...we have a bit of time still which is nice...I believe that they ususally take about 4 months to come in

no i didnt.. but my friend had a simialr prob - not sure what dress it was though but wire started sticking out from the tops of the dresses

Re: Did anyone choose and order BM dresses yet?

not to make it sound like cookies or anything but maybe it's possible that the batch she got was defective (sp?) ? I feel like so many girls use it on this website that if something like that was to happen, we would have read it in a review. I've researched that dress because I'm looking into getting it for my girls too. I wouldn't let it influence your decision!

Re: Did anyone choose and order BM dresses yet?

I think I picked one but they just need to try it on....I THINK it might be this one in a light yellow color (biscuit)

I'm going to have the BM have spaghetti straps sewn in and my MOH will be strapless with a longer train....she did a train for me and I thought it was awesome....made me feel special...in a good way this time



ETA: The last pic is the color

We picked ours recently....or well, I let them choose their own. We are ordering this month. I picked a skirt from the Impressions Seperates line and they all picked a top that suited them.

Here's a picture of them all in their respective tops (they didn't have 5 versions of the skirt so they are all wearing different skirts in the pic). Also, they will be in black...not the green color they are wearing. (ETA: They will also be in all georgette...not a mix of satin and georgette since all the tops and skirts in that line come in both matireals)
