I am really sorry to hear about your monetary loss people, have sympathies with you all. However, my experience with dressrepublic.com has always been good. I remember some months back I went online to look for some designer Pakistani dresses for special occasion as I wanted a dress for my engagement. Quickly, i found Dressrepublic and was instantly blown away by their sites aesthetics. The colors themes and style that they had on the site was amazing, and it gave the impression that if these guys have a beautiful and quality site, how beautiful and quality must their clothes be!
I went looking throughout the site to find something i liked, it was difficult for me, as i had a set amount to spend and there was just so much that i wanted! I really found it hard to decide which one I should go for. I, after consulting with their customer service people and my family and friends, eventually selected an Anarkali dress from their Special Occasion dresses category, and a set of matching jewelry that was made in silver for my engagement day. These items were a bit overpriced so I asked for some discount and got it from Mohammad, the guy at their customer service. He kept me informed about the production progress of my engagement dress and jewelry set, still I awaited my delivery impatiently though lol. They came on the very day that they said they would, and there were no complications or headaches. I would strongly recommend Dressrepublic for the complete shopping experience, great site, top quality embellishment work and tailoring, competitive prices, quick delivery, excellent customer service, you can't lose!
I am providing you with the link of pictures of my engagement dress I took the same day I received it here in NJ. Please have a look.
