@brideatbeach: it should be under attatchments now. sorry about that. i'm new to this. and desperate
You could always ask the Ebay seller, But i think it could be Carmela Fontana, It's not quite the same but it's a similar style.

Here is the picture so everyone can see it:

It looks like it says it right there in the photo - Magda Alessio by Moda Sposa? I Googled and it looks like an Italian brand. There's not too much about it on any English-language sites.

ETA: Oh, I guess "moda sposa" just means bridal gown in Italian. I think the post above me found it, though.
Oh, it's okay; I've started photo threads and forgot the photo multiple times. :)
I would ask the eBay seller just to be 100% sure. Most of them are excellent at getting back to potential bidders because they want to make an awesome sale!
Here is the reult of a search on www.tineye.com

It appears to be a Chinese replica of some other designer's dress.
This is the exact dress I found and im in love with it. The only thing I can find on it is that it is a China made dress and I cant find it in any bridal web sites.
@Ember78: I think you are correct. It is very similar to this Pnina- no model name of number attached unfortunately.

But for the OP if this is the style you like, you can look for Pnina Tornai dresses.
i fell in love with the Pnina $24k dress on "Say Yes to the Dress" so i "thought" about purchasing the gown - thankfully i only paid $80 to see what the knockoff place would make (i only had to pay $80 for deposit so i just lose that money)
pretty darn close, but you can tell it's not as nice as the "original" $24k dress. i guess i had too high of an expectation.

@FinallyGettingMarried, whether a knockoff looks similar to a designer dress or not depends on the seamstress's abilities. Some look stunning (local professional seamstresses that you can find through a fabric store) and some don't resemble the dress at all (typical of Chinese knockoff companies). Don't assume that all copies are bad when that may not be true at all.
@FinallyGettingMarried: That's a knockoff? That dress is absolutly gorgeous. I wonder if the flowers can be removed. I know the flowers sort of make the dress, but with that champagne color, to me, the flowers look like fungus. lol
@philsgirl:Does the back of the dress have pickups/ drapes in the skirt? Like it did on the "art of negotiation" episode on Say Yes To The Dress.
@philsgirl: Hi, I just thought you would like to know that I actually just received this dress last week. It was a test drive. I ordered it off of Ebay for $139.00. That was for the dress and free shipping. I received the dress within 4 weeks. I also bought the petticoat from the same Ebay seller. It was sent to me by Fedex and I received both in the same package. Customs charged me $57.00 which I am appealing the over charge of duty. Should have paid no more than $30.00. The dress is absolutely gorgeous! I am in total shock at how well made and exact it turned out. I am now in the process of buying two more dresses and I will decided which dress I will wear for my renewal ceremony. Do your homework and go with the Ebay sellers with 100% Good feedback that are not new! I have ordered from other Ebay (China) sellers and I am completely happy with all my purchases! Cut the middle man out. After all, all clothing is made in China anyways and why not save yourself a lot of money! Good luck!
@tess1727: I was thinking of doing this exact same thing. This is my 2nd marriage and don't want a traditional white dress. I would like a burgundy dress. After much frustration, I saw several sites on ebay offering beautiful colored dresses. If you don't mind me asking, which ebay seller did you purchase your dress from?
@smooches173: I purchased this dress from rose-promise on ebay. The dress is beautiful and is the exact replica of the picture. I did need this dress altered because it was purchased by sizes. I also purchased from victory-yuyang on ebay and the dress was exact measurements and very beautiful. I love both ebay stores.

I was browsing on Ebay for wedding dresses one day and I found a beautiful gown. I never shopped for anything on Ebay before and I am very reluctant to purchase my wedding gown from there. I really need to know the designer of this gown. Does anyone out there have that information for me? I would greatly appreciate it.
