It's fine to scout to those on net (yung may mga pangalan etc..) but I would suggest to canvass to those dress shops that don't have BIG name and look for their samples. In fact, you can bring your own design and show them (pwede nila gayahin yun). Then, you will save more!

Hi, may contact ako sa Divisoria, gumagawa sila ng mga gowns... I bought mine, package na sya for less than 10k, actually yung 10k mo entourage na nga yun eh... basta marunong ka lang pumili ng tindahan ang negotiate with them nicely... In fairness, ang ganda nung gown ko lahat nga ng mga employees ng husband ko sa US hindi makapaniwala na ganun yung price eh :D

Hello Jen, thank you sa info, tanong ko lang baka pwede mo i-pm sa akin 'yung contact mo sa divi para ma-check ko heheheh thank you ;) god bless you

I agree to them. I have seen myself the gowns there and people making that gowns, Very neat and maganda ang tahi. And besides yung ibang gown sa SM department store sa kanila kumukuha. Sa divisoria less than P10,000 may makikita ka as in magaganda na.

Though hindi dun nanggaling yung sinuot co kace pinatahi namin sa Bataan which is ciempre malayo yun sayo. hehe , kaya hnd co suggest yun.

Good luck Nanz, sa divisoria ka tumingin mas marami ka pagpipilian na affordable price. Same quality lang rin ng sa mall. Trust me. ;)
