I found a dress I really liked today at a bridal salon in East Hills <> but the label was cut out of the dress and they wouldn't tell me who made it!!! I just want to find it online to look at the pic and to post it for opinions!!!

Can they really refuse to tell me who makes the dress?

It's a strapless dress with lace at the top of the dress going down into a soft 'V' at the waist. It also has the same lace in a 4 inch trim at the bottom of the dress and a narrow bow at the waist. It had a train (possibly semi-cathedral length).

It came in 'candelight', 'white' and 'ivory' satin.

Sound familiar to any of you? Thanks so much!!!!!

Wow. I am really surprised by this. I just ordered by BM's dresses from Bridal Accent and I thought this shop was a class act. Why in the world are they doing this to you? I think that if you are paying for something, you have a right to know who the designer is. Why should you pay that much money for a mystery designer? And what could be a legitimate reason for withholding the designer's name? I don't get it. I hope it works out for you though. Keep us posted.

If the dress is the same as mine, the reason they do it is so they can more than triple the price. I too thought it was a class act shop until I did the research and found out that this is what happened. Now they disgust me to no end.

NYPDsGirl, where are you? I'm dying to know if it's my dress!!

NYPDS.. I am sooo shocked and disgusted with that place. And, we thought they were on our top list for good service and not ripping us off...

Good thing you did your research!!

I would let them know what you found out!!
