i think this is closer to the original work than aminas's. aminas's has more kora/dabka work instead of sequin work. however, the fabric used by shay's aunt is definitely superior.
yeeh the work is very nice, and the dapatta also has the same sort of dapatta as the original, were Aminas's dapatta looks plain in the pics please correct me if im wrong, and the colour is more like the original, but u r right the fabric used is a disappointment!!
talking about difference in kaam, it's done according to what each client wants :)
I expected Amina to correct me 
anyways, like I said the fabric used on mine is not nice I prefare Aminas fabric [Edit]
I have been exchangin pms wid Amina and we both agreed she got a good deal for her money!!
^ let me clarify here that the work on both is nice in their own way. i was just comparing it to the original. like you said, the quality of the fabric is better in case of amina for sure.
good work, if it was taken from a good camera wouldhave looked much better.
fabric on this one is better and work much better,it is a but different which is natural but other things are almost same even it has more work than original.
Correct you about what ? you never asked me if I wanted something different myself or her aunt made any changes

Re: My experiance with Shay's designer
nice, the work on FV is better and the fabric on shay's aunt is definately better! Both of the prices are including shipping?
Re: My experiance with Shay's designer
I just love this dress! Someone who was making it for me quoted $409 so I backed out. Shay's aunt has done a wonderful job on aminas outfit. I really like it. BTW, shab 786 the kaam on yours is nice, too. Both a are different copies but I like them. WTG!
