There are two ways to buy a designer dress online - One, from an authorized retailer such as Blossoms which has a real brick and mortar store. Two, from an "Internet Only" store which might be selling counterfeit dresses.

Most top tier dress designers do not permit Internet Only sales of their dresses -- and for good reasons. They only work with reputable established businesses that can properly care for the dresses. Their goal is simple -- to make sure you receive the dress you want in the most reliable way possible. They prohibit the kind of things that Internet Only merchants can do -- such as storing dresses in the kitchen and letting dogs and cats play on them. There is nothing to stop an Internet Only merchant from selling a dress that smells like bacon and is covered with cat hair -- to a vegetarian with cat allergies. 

On the other hand, stores such as Blossoms specialize in the care and handling of dresses. That is all we do. The top designers trust us. You should too.

We recommend that you choose your dress like you choose your man. Don't choose the cheapest one you find on the internet! They could be a fake.
