Designer vs Replica


* Designer - You have a Designer name sewn on the inside of the dress
* Replica -   You wont. However who looks at the inside of your gown on the day??


* Designer - You get to pay much more for this privilege
* Replica -   You don't


* Designer-  Better quality materials used etc
* Replicas -  Most of the same materials are used


* Designer - You will be able to tell visually that this is a Designer Gown
* Replica -   You WONT be able to tell visually that this is not a Designer Gown


* Designer -  I will be able to re sell easier
* Replica -   No matter what label, your gown can sometimes be difficult to resell however if you have not spent thousands on your gown to start with, you wont have to put such a large resell value on it, so in fact a replica dress may sell quicker due to a lower price asked.
