RP from BHB - Dress Maker

Does anyone know of a Dress Maker that can make Flower Girl Dresses?

I have run into a problem with the dresses that I ordered and really need to explore all options fast.

I don't want white or ivory so buying them in a store is nearly impossible -- I have been to them all I think.

TIA

What type of dress (color, style) are you looking for? You have to be able to find something on line. I ordered a few from woddensoldier.com and I had it in 3 days and returned the ones I didn't want.

I ordered my two Flower Girls Ladybug Dresses. We ordered them last week and the bridal salon called today to say that the manufacturer would not accept her order because she didn't order anything from them in the last 12 months

I have been calling around but now I am getting nervous because one store told me they will see if they can rush it but it takes 4-5 months and one store is no longer taking Lady Bug orders because the shipments are behind.

The dresses are champagne color with espresso brown sash, collar and flowers.

Beware. I was told ladybug is having major problems getting the shipments out. I don't know if it's customs (China). But I was told to stay away.

This is what I am getting now too and I am so sad about it -- I love these dresses. I was gong to order them a while ago but they were expensive so i thought i would be able to find something i loved just as much and for a lot cheaper -- I should have just done it then

One place is no longer taking orders until they catch up on shipments and since they denied a store an order because they didn't order last year makes me think they are having some serious troubles.

Put a picture up of what it looks like and I will try to help you find something similar

That was the original one I wanted in the brown and pink.

Isn't it the most precious thing. I had my niece try and it on and she told me 'it is a little old fashioned like Belle's dress but I love it!' (she is 3)

She is going to be so dissapointed!

do u know anyone that knows a seamstress or at least someone with a sewing machine?

the dress doesnt seem super complicated so im sure someone will be able to make it (even without a pattern).

but if u would like...look for patterns at joanns for something similar (or probably online...i think the brand my mom uses is mccalls or something like that).

here's something...its not exact...but u can alter it a bit and add the crinoline underneath

I am asking around but I don't think that I do. Thanks for the pattern names -- I will see what I can find.

another thing i thought of...could u call a bunch of stores that carry them and see if they have a nice sample in the colors and a close size that they might sell?
