“The online store was really great. They took all my measurements and kept me updated on the production all the time!
“It took about 6 weeks to get to me but it fit like a glove! I made a loop underneath so I could lift it up so it was comfortable and light too! It wasn’t too hot/cold. It didn’t fall off.”
It turns out that at some stores you can click on the dress of your choice and customize it to the exact measurements, rather than choosing a standard size.
In addition to the regular sizes, you will also find a ‘custom size’ button on the far right, so that you can have your wedding dress fit perfectly.
And the bride wasn’t the only one impressed with the quality of the Aliexpress wedding dresses.
Another photo showed pictures of her beautiful wedding dress, which featured floral details running the length of the dress.
She added: “I wanted to do a quick review of my AliExpress wedding dress in case anyone is still on the fence about buying one.
“I absolutely loved my dress, made by a seller on AliExpress called “Sansa Prom Dress Store”. The seller was very responsive to my needs.
“I told her my measurements and she adjusted it to my size. I asked her to change the backless dress to a dress with fabric on the back so I could wear a bra. She did.”
She quoted the dress as costing £88, but after shipping and tax the total price was £103.
