I have very much enjoyed working with … I have very much enjoyed working with Dessy to purchase dresses & accessories. My only small suggestion would be to replace "we'll advise when it's in stock" with a notice of discontinuation - as this would have impacted colour choices. I had been hoping to keep ones uniform but have found a close enough substitute.

Poor advice on sizing I contacted the Dessy Group to request advice on selecting the dress size for the style. Based on my measurements, the specialist recommended a size that is way too large for my chest, hips, and even the waist. I'm disappointed that I'll need to spend the additional costs to get the dress altered. Also disappointing is the cost of the dress, for what is essentially just a bunch of polyester.

AVOID- cheap and terribly made dresses I ordered a dress based on the reviews on their website which I now learned are filtered. They only post the positive reviews - beware!!! I ordered a dress through a retailer. It was stained & the dress did not look like the photo online. The dress looked like a 30$ dress. Extremely cheap and poorly made. There was some defects on the skirt. Dessy took no accountability. They kept telling me they never had quality complaints. According to them I was the first one to complain about this specific dress so that means its impossible that there was a quality issue. No logic what so ever!!! They told me to go back to the retailer (which I did and they ordered to clean it with dish soap for me - yes they told me that!!). We ordered a total of 6 dressed from them and this was the service we got. One girl had to reorder because of a sizing chart issued and the second dress she ordered (from the website) was torn and had a huge stain. Just avoid. Go spend a few dollars more on a mori lee dress and you’ll be much better off!!

Great swatches, decent experience Took a little longer to ship than expected, and only half of the swatches came on a white backing board - having it on the backing makes it so much easier to tell what the color is actually going to be when it has multiple layers of it. That being said, they are great swatches, they were well packaged, and, once they shipped, they arrived quickly. I got numerous email updates on my order, which was appreciated as well.

Delusions of grandeur Dresses that have restricted size guidelines are, say it with me now, not a custom order. They are dresses, made in sizes. Period. There is absolutely nothing custom about them aside from color. The sizing guides are extremely inaccurate, and the return policy doesn't apply to all styles of dresses. You can measure, and follow the fitting guide to a T, but be ready to pay through the nose for head to toe alterations. Seems a little expensive for a $300 "custom dress", doesn't it?
